Pure hop resin, extremely front-loaded bitterness. A bit like burnt rubber. Did not finish this beer, probably not making a good personal elegy for the brewery.

Very much in the vein of the Wild Ride Nut Crusher - closer to Peanut Butter Crunch than a Reese's. Slightly below that other beer in overall coherence of flavor, I think, but still super-drinkable. And at least this wasn't nitro.

Good, solid, scotch ale that tastes like a scotch ale. I mean, I guess that doesn't sound particularly compelling? But I like solid scotch ales. Also I'm sad since this might be the last Naked City beer I ever get to drink.

Surprisingly nice on this hot summer night

Yah. The smoke. It overpowers. I mean seriously. I like Smokey drinks. And this is just too much.

So smoky!

Malty. Citrus. A little bitter on the finish.

Smells malty, tastes strongly of lemon .

Kind of like brackish water .I don't get any real sour .

What I wrote for the last release still holds true. Good flavors but sabotaged a bit by too much woody dryness.

The high point of the flight. A crisp golden ale with very subtle cream coffee notes. Well balanced and tasty.

What would happen if you took an insipid Kolsch or wheat ale and amped up the alcohol to obviously extreme levels. A baby-tongued but brutish beer.

I imagine hopheads might love this. It's too much for me on every direction (alpha, sweetness, alcohol) but it tastes exactly like what I think when I hear "Triple IPA," so...

This beer is two things: it very much sits at the intersection of porter and IPA that defines the style, and it pretty much exemplifies my confusion as to why we need the style, in that it either seems like a messed-up Porter, or a messed-up IPA. Maybe because it's not assertive in either direction.

Just a taste, but it seemed better than last time. Still not a lot of coconut though.

I asked what kinds of nuts were in this beer, and the bartender said "all of them!" A thick, creamy, sweetish stout with a rich unidentifiable nut flavor. Really nice, but very strong. In fact, a lot of the beers here are surprisingly strong.

Mildly tart saison with a flavor primarily consisting of hop juice. Slight malty sweetness upfront. A bit simple in flavor.

Floral citrus star, sweet pithy bitter finish. Too bitter for me, although I liked how it started.

A little funky, even in comparison to the funky Jasmine Wheat, which I suspect was a big negative on its own (my previous review). Here it was actually pretty pleasant, although still a bit unusual. Good barley taste.

Gross. White chocolate on top of a rooty, ginseng-esque slurry. Finishes with a funky malt sweetness. Smells pretty awful too.

Really not what I was expecting when I ordered a Kölsch. Instead of being fresh, crisp and refreshing this beer has a weird hard to identify stale flavor. Reminds me of peanuts and boiled cabage. The bitterness was also unpleasant.

A very weird, nutty yeast funk sits at the heart of this beer - like boiled, bitter peanuts. It was reminiscent of the old Hi-Fi Session Brown, and not at all crisp or refreshing, which is table stakes for a Kölsch for me.

Tons of citrus on the nose with a butterscotch finish.

Unlike other coconut beers, this didn't taste like toasted coconut, but rather coconut milk, dank and dimly nutty. It doesn't fit well with the otherwise bright flavors of the beer, which are nice. Too bad.

Moderate IPA, pleasant bitterness that's not aggressive. Good cereal taste and simple bitterness.

Thin coffee-like porter with a clear note of wood-smoke. I thought this was drinkable, but fairly boring.

Roasted cereal smell. Good follow-through with a good sweetish malt presence and clean finish. Some finishing tackiness.

Resinousy hops.

Assertive bitter start and middle edge. Middle malts are sorta field-grassy. Cereal sweet finish.

Nice woody (but not ashy) smoke that interacts well with a crisp, not-too-sweet Oktoberfest. I could see being in the mood for this easily, though definitely not all the time.

It starts sweet, like a creamy milk stout with some hints of coffee, followed by a mellow, delicious oak smoothness. Then the wood just keeps building into a sharp, bitter, ashtray-like big rock ending. I do think If they'd oaked it a little less, it would have been great.

Sharp bitterness with some tacky mouthfeel. Moderate wood flavor. Finish reminds me of a grainy dark chocolate.
