Plesant-enough creamy stout, but just a little bit too much on the sweet side; it got harder to drink throughout the glass.

Could have been mislabeled as the server seemed unsure, but this does have a classic wit flavor up front. It was the amount of cereal, lager-like, that really appealed to me.

Sweet, thin, hop juice.

Easy drinking and not at all the bitter-fest that my previous log seems to indicate. Dominant flavors seem to be black coffee and burnt sugar.

Spicier and slightly more bitter than the Happy Hops. This is probably better balanced but suffers from being after.

Exemplary milk stout. Creamy, only lightly sweet, coffee.

Dry, lightly tart, funky saison. A little more tart than the most interesting Brett beers in memory. But this is pretty good.

Definitely didn’t taste like a Mexican lager. Very hoppy, vegetal, a little soapy.

Very tart, cranberry, puckery. Unremarkable.

I think someone gave this to me over the summer and I’ve only just gotten around to trying it in November. And I feel like this would have been even better on a sultry lazy summer evening… but even on a crisp cool night it’s pretty good. Definitely get the grassy, hoppy thing.

Tastes like a pale on the edge of an IPA.

Not sure what was different between this and the last one I logged - it or me. I really enjoyed this glass, and the previous description I don't recognize at all. Opens light, cereal-sweet, just a hint of coriander and citrus. Refreshing and clean. "Smoke?" Wtf.

Unexpectedly dry, this is maybe the least dessert-like coconut dark beer I've ever had. Thin character, very roasty transitions from toasted coconut to roast bitterness very quickly, with only a bit of alcohol vapor in between. Reminds me a bit of the old Dick's Cream Stout. The aftertaste manages to be sweet. It tastes adult, but maybe not purely enjoyable.

Super alcoholic. Too sweet. Fruitcake? Ew.

A very weird hybrid that sits exactly between a grapefruit/pineapple hazy pale and a sweet pale lager. A lot of cognitive dissonance but in the end I have to say it was good. Not sure it’s a flavor that needed to exist, but it was good.

Strong Belgian spice up front, pleasant grapey (but not explicitly grapefruit to my mind) fruit flavor follows. I just didn’t love the spice flavors here.

Gave off a skunky smell while pouring, but it wasn't evident in the taste. Belgian pale with light spice notes, white pepper, but with a dry, grapey, vinous tartness.

Good medium-bodied stout, a bit oily and "dirty" tasting. Mental image is of a few coffee grounds making it into the glass. The dirty seems reflected in the thick lattice pattern left by the head.

Belgian saison that trends more toward the Belgian pale end of the flavor spectrum. Subtle white pepper and clove with a kind of juicy effervescence. Not sour, not funky.

Pours thick and profoundly dark, with a dark tan head. Amazing, smooth, very thick stout. Dark plummy finish. A “refined berserker,” it dissipates cleanly to finish. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

Surprisingly good despite a clover character I don’t usually enjoy. A little rooty, a little nutty, toffee/caramel. Like a candy brittle.

I wish I'd taken better notes. I do remember this being very tasty, and a little unusual; possibly wit-like? I'll have to try again to be sure.

A creamy, roasty porter, medium-bodied. Smooth finish. Hints at an English-like yeasty tartness but doesn't actually go there. Still, it's comparable to a Samuel Smith... a quintessential oatmeal stout.

Belgian pale with a very light yeast flavor, very refreshing. Medium-dry. Good cereal finish. Another great beer from Holy Mountain.

Holy cat this was against expectations. There's quite a lot of hoppy character built into this, like a strong CDA with a little more roast and thickness. Somehow still good (I don't usually enjoy this style) but definitely a surprise.

Slightly smoky porter, with the dominant flavor being a roastiness that is on the edge of being too bitter. Finishes mild and clean, which rescues this thing and actually puts it on the side of light.

An unusual but delicious saison. Spicy from the rye, with a slight, vinous tartness, white pepper, and a rich cereal finish. Yummmmm!

Look, this was good. And I don't have a prayer of remembering anything about it. I think I said something about this being the much younger sibling of the 3 Fonteinen. I'm assuming I meant without all the weird funk.

A very weird, bright, hop perfume meets an orange essential oil slick. Less like a Kolsch (not much cereal, not much yeast) and more like a dry hopping experiment gone wrong.

Dark with just a hint of plum. Smooth and even flavor, but it doesn't really have any other notes.

I don't usually like weizenbocks that much, but this was quite good.

Bracingly tart, lemon-lime sour. Doesn't have the slight headachey sharpness I've gotten from similar sours, but it does come on a bit strong. It kind of effectively masks most of any complexity that might have existed in the finish.

2016 Big Wood Festival. Candy-like, subdued spice profile.

I have been to the mountain. And I do believe.

Slightly funky-tart saison with a lot of vibrant hop flavor on top. Lemony with a touch of pine, it was viscous and almost fresh-hop-like. Still, a touch more on the IPA side than I want when ordering a saison.

This was pretty good, but I absolutely failed to take notes. Sorry.

Nice coffee flavors.

Bit of coffee, bit of caramel. I remember this being really good, but this was a victim of too much good, memory-affecting stuff. Sorry.

Funky banana and subtle spice, nothing overt. This saison was much more on the funky / yeasty side than fruit or sour. Complex and enjoyable.

Would have liked to have had more of this. A very mild brown ale with nice cereal to close. But I only had a taste.

Lot of funk on this beer, although overall its flavor is quite good. Lots of dry Belgian spice, the smoky ones a bit accentuated. Not much citrus if at all, which is a touch I usually like in witbiers.

Dry, saisony pale with a bit of white wine hat the front and back of the flavor. Subtle tartness and a pleasant late cereal entrance. There's a strong, yeasty funk bitterness that pervades the flavor and builds up over time. It overwhelms the flavor a bit, knocking it down a notch.

I just like milk stouts and this one is pretty representative of the category but I was promised rye and that I find missing so...

Sweeter than most milk stouts I've tried, almost overly so -- I don't know if that is from being on nitro. Combined with a whole lot of roast, this recalls campfire s'mores, but the pungent umami of the sweetness interfered with my enjoyment somewhat.

Wow. This smells like old cigarette ash. In the mouth is has a somewhat full body with hints of artificial cherry liquor, that fades into the ash, which lingers for quite a while.

What Eden said. Basically I'm disappointed because I thought the cherry would be tart and it's just not there.

Overtones of chocolate and cherry without overt fruitiness or tartness.

Very crisp resinous hop flavors. Leaves a cereal aftertaste. Medium-high bitterness.

Super-fragrant - grapefruit at first, but almost orangey in its fruitiness. Rounded hop-fruit flavor and a sweet cereal finish. Mild bitterness builds up over time, which you could say is not in my wheelhouse, but ... I really loved the flavors here.

A malty, sweet brown, moderately thick in the mouth (uhh, did I just say that?) and smoothed out on nitro. No weird nitro flavors that I noticed. Not barrel aged, making it the lone outlier in today's group, but one of the tastier beers on the list.

Hum, I find it hard to describe this beer properly. It has a very upfront hoppyness, with subtle hints of citrus. The aftertaste reminds me strongly of cereals (wet cereals?, rye?). Also has some funkyness/tang that I can't seem to put a flavor on.
