Decent IPA scent. Taste is bitter and perhaps a bit brackish. I've had worse, but it's not the sort of IPA I like.

Savage The Big Dark (2024)
Generally I like this beer but today it has a murky, dishwatery quality.

New Glarus Champda Blanc (2024)
(Brewed 1-24, bottled 11-24)
This is amazing. Sweet, tart, effervescent, the slightest hint of some bitterness. amazing balance. I guess if you NEED a mouthful of bitterness then this might not be for you. Otherwise, this is the best bet ever.

It's kinda rough and brackish. Makes it seem more German than Czech to me. They do talk about "an old school blur off German and Czech styles" on the bottle. I fear that adding Czech into German results in nothing good.

I don’t know if it’s the unusually bright hop presence or the chewy malt sweetness or the lightly umami finish, but this beer felt kind of relentless.
Draft

Has an unpleasant opening flavor of dishwater with lemon cleaner. It's momentary but hard to ignore. Finishes well, with a cereal sweetness.
Draft


A little more lager-like, a little more uric than the last log. I think it helps, although it still finishes quite bitter.
Draft

A sweet, cereal lager with a pretty intense peach flavor upfront. Peach breakfast cereal? It’s interesting but also quite weird.
Draft

A little too sweet - it's not syrupy but there's something over the top about the tail end of the flavor. And it winds up tacky in the throat. It's tiny-bit headache inducing.
Draft

Apricot gravy with some fragrant funk that could be ascribed to the tea. Maybe?

Matchless Easy Being Green (2025)
Mild and fruity, citrus. It’s fragrant, almost too fragrant—one sip is very pleasant indeed but it’s a lot to take over a glass.

We've replaced their s'mores with barrel aged nonsense. Let's see if they notice . . .

Fairly bitter with not much in the way of juicy flavors I was led to expect.

Has a lot of what I like in a pumpkin beer; a touch of caramel, fruit, not much in the way of pie spice, but this is sour, and feels like it’s accidentally so.
Bottle

This is really nice. Good body, effervescent, flavors are actually pretty subtle, the text says "Apple and subtle spice"

It's okay, but tastes a little funky. I think it's not for me in the end.

Liefmans Kriek-Brut (unknown release)
Wow, this is really good! Fruity, cherry beer.
Draft at Bavarian Lodge

Unsweet, pine-lemon, cereal, pepper. Complex melange of aromatics right on the backend. Finishes bitter but clean.
Draft


All the old logs are correct. This time I only stole a sip from Roy because I feared the headache.

Bit cherry flavored. You bourbon barrel aged weirdos might like this.
