54 home runs! This is both a sweet lager and grassy; assertive. Slightly uric, brackish finish. Really like this.
A really mellow drinking, fruity, sweet ale. Plummy.
Very light on pineapple but the chili is assertive and pleasant, and more than a little spicy. I'm a sucker for (non-stout) chili beers and this one hits the spot.
Definitely lots of lime, with a primarily citric tartness. There's a faint tinge of sweetness but this is more lime than it is pie to me. Lime ain't a bad way to go though.
It's possible this is on the other side of the aging hump but you can't tell. Lots of coffee, so smooth. Bourbon/caramel and no alcohol harshness. Just about perfect.
Smooth, definitely nutty, definitely marshmallow. It's thick in a way that I've never experienced in a beery, as if they added xanthan gum to simulate the feeling of a marshmallow. Ever had thick water? It's not that far off.
Very smoothed out, just on the edge of getting raw on the alcohol side, but this is still so nice. A little more smoky, tiny bit tart, bourbon finish.
Toasty, lightly malty, light fragrance of apple or pumpkin. Solid Oktoberfest.
Every "golden stout" I've had has overcompensated in some way that breaks into the uncanny valley, and this is no exception. A little too sweet, a little too milky, but still, overall not bad.
Tastes like light cocoa, maybe marshmallow, just a hint of coconut. Light, sweet, but not cloying, really tasty and remains so for the full pint.
Very smooth, still good, if sanded away a bit much and exposing the raw flavor of alcohol.
Too old, gone bad. Extremely sour, undrinkable.
Smooth, light milk stout - maybe the cleanest milk stout I've had? Light roast, smoke. The finishing bitterness is roasty, like a dark pretzel. It's extraordinarily well-balanced and light-drinking.
Sweet, toffee, lots of booze. The sweetness is very strong and brandy-like.
Not gonna lie, I could drink an infinite amount of this. It's a pineapple coconut drink. It does not at all taste alcoholic.
Son of Man Sagardo (2023 Harvest)
Extremely dry, thin body and no lingering tartness. I liked this a lot.
The lime combines with the hibiscus to give this a real nice, dry bite at the end of a juicy cider.
A grassy, surprisingly bitter lager that mellows into a kind of adjunct sweetness. It's very clean. I think I was expecting something a lot lighter, but this was tasty.
Weirdly candy-like in its fruitiness? It reminds me a bit of those soft-center hard strawberry candies in the white wrappers. Somewhat insipid finish. I might be more in the mood for this except this doesn't feel intentional? (Note: this was absolutely marked as Hans Gruber on the tap but maybe this was actually the Strawberry Golden Ale?)
Mildly sour up-front with a floral candy sweetness coming in later. It's not syrupy or thick, more like sucking on a sour hard candy over time.
A little watery, especially in comparison to the Melons. If this is the base, it's missing more than the watermelon. Still, good basic flavors, just feels like it could have been more flavorful.
Now this is a beer that tastes like watermelon! Juice, not candy-like. Uric and cereal, cloudy, refreshing.
Tart; blueberry; lemon; clean.
Still boozy, but approaching sublime levels of smoothness. Chocolate, caramel, woody bitterness.
A citrus mix, prickly carbonation, really mellow finish despite what is quite an oily beer. Sweet with some cereal in the finish.
It’s a good IPA, dry, bitter, but not overly pithy or resinous. A significant ding for tasting nothing like guava.
Fragrant, citrus, sunny. Very nostalgic flavor, and not a bad fit for breakfast.
This thing is suffused with the spirit of chocolate; the thickness, the fruitiness of the cacao really comes through. It's decadent and luxurious rather than refined and luxurious - this feels like it would have been a lot to take when it was young, but it's still a lot now.
Light and tasty, bit of tangy taste. Not much bitterness.
A rounded, fruity (but not juicy) IPA with some cereal funk and clean finish. I don't especially get a lot of mango here but I also understand my palate may be fried.
Not the sweetest dessert stout I've ever had, but this is up there. Starts with some roast and marshmallow but the sweetness goes on and on. Boozy, too.
This one's weird, honestly. Light, but with smoky white pepper notes like you get with a Belgian IPA. The lemon sits a bit uneasily on top of that. I appreciate they tried it, though.
Jammy, sweet, medium sour. Not much funk and a lot of fruit. It's well-balanced, and interestingly if you have a sip directly after the S'more, there's a real PB&J effect.
This one actually tastes peppery. Spicy rye notes and a bit of malt. Not fruity at all, which is nice for an IPA these days.
A smooth red, Irish-like, with a dry bitterness and pine tar character. Lightly sweet.
A light lemon-pine IPA with distinct peach flavors. I don't think I really get peppercorn here, other than a slightly shimmery bitter finish, but this is tasty.
Thick, peanut butter flavor with some cereal. This is somewhat reminiscent of Peanut Butter Crunch Cereal, which in the past has been famously in tune with my tastes. This one has some backbone too, though.
Caramel, coconut, cocoa. This is dessert sweet avoids being thick or cloying. Really quite tasty.
Tart but not puckery, not at all funky. Peach with maybe some vanilla? The effect is sour-sweet.
Czech-like, brackish, grassy. Has a sweetness running through it.
