Super bright, clean sour. I’d say the primary flavor is dry cherry with raspberry being least detectable (very much appreciate this). Fizzy and not too sweet, hint of cereal underneath.
The first swig of this is super weird, the fenugreek gives it a bitter, Chinese herbal medicine like quality. There's a really nice brown ale behind it and as your palate gets adjusted it ends up being quite pleasant. However, "it burned my taste buds until it was fine" is not really a ringing endorsement for a beer.
This didn't taste like a beer at all. Unusual in that this was way more like a Moscato d'Asti or other sweet sparkling dessert wine more than other doesn't-taste-like-a-beer-beers. Sometimes I score highly even if a thing doesn't taste beer-like but I'm not feeling so generous today.
Slightly tart, very fruity, like a black cherry soda. High levels of funk in this beer, which ends with a malty character poking through the finish. Slightly syrupy.
A thick, malty stout with more than a hint of umami and salt. If you'd told me this was an oyster stout I would have believed you for sure. Again, not sure if the labeling was correct - I did not taste chocolate at all.
A delicious golden ale, with just a hint of Belgian spice character before hop perfume and an exotic bitterness from the grains of paradise kick in. Delicious, cereal malt finish. This is like an actually excellent mutation of Sam Adams Summer Ale.
A really special Saison. Yeast funk smell, on the palate yeast is present but not overpowering as in many Saisons. Ripe peach and pear flavors with a slight hint of yeast behind it, and maybe a bit of peppercorn (although I had a hard time really pinning that down.
Most saison are super funky with bright fruit flavors, the ripeness of this is a nice change and worth a taste.
Roasty, bitter stout with hints of licorice and other spice. The finish is, constrastingly, malty and mellow and caramel. That bitterness persists, though.
I think this is the one that smelled great, but all you could taste was hops.
It was a tasting, and I had eight kinda strong drafts. I took "notes" with my phone, but they got pretty vague.
