Logs for beers from this brewery

Probably the least good brut IPA I've had yet. Why? I can't remember, but noting for the future.
Very woody. Dry but not sour. Light whiskey.
Rich, helles flavor, cereal and light sweetness. An excellent lager.
It has a very sweet smell, but it's not very sweet to the taste. It shows an interesting mix of faint caramelized and toasted notes with hop flavors.
A strongly sweet caramelized flavor hints at unpleasantness, but the flavor has none of it. Just a nice amount of toasted malt to offset the hops, simple and uncomplicated. Beat the Kingpin hands-down for me, but it wasn't especially memorable.
Quite bitter, bittersweet chocolate and bitter coffee.
Bottle at Home
Really well balanced stout. Citrus smell and leads on the palate with enough malt to cut the bitterness down to very low levels and add an almost caramel element (just a hint thought)
Bottle at Pool
Smells of citrus and a bit of malt. On the palate brown bread and toffee flavors, some peach as it warmed, and another hit of citrus on the finish. Sweet on the palate but a balanced finish also leads some bitterness.
Bottle at Home
Smells of spicy citrus, same on the palate. Pretty good for a rye, there's both the fruitiness you'd want in an IPA and the spicy kick from the rye.
Bottle at Home
Bit bitter for me
Bottle at Home
Fragrant and clean IPA with a nice flavor, but just a hint more pithiness than I like.
Bottle at Xbeer One
Spicy piney hop smell. Sweet malt body with a clingy sort of mouth feel.
Bottle at Xbeer One
Tart for sure. Reminds me of a Basque sidra.
Spicy smell. Slightly sweet start/middle, mild hops and finish. Moderate malts make up that sweet start/middle. Drink it faster and the hops add up.
Bleh. I see what they were going for, but I don't like it. Thin, too bitter, and the roasted malt just tasted burnt to me.
Unremarkable tasting after a fresh IPA.
Malty IPA with muted fragrance, melon notes, strong bitter finish. I wish I hadn't burnt out my taste buds on the Stone directly beforehand.
