Nutty, hints of cocoa, thematically not that different from the afraid of the dark but honestly I can’t get behind the nitro (even though it’s better than usual)

Dry and light dark lager, more amber though less sweet than a Vienna, barely fruity, bready.

Lemon cereal IPA, dry and bitter finish, but lager-like and really refreshing.

Nice brown sugar biscuit flavors, but somewhat thin and dry and ultimately dominated by a strong, clear, acrid bitterness.

A *very* hoppy brown. Lots of roast, bitter coffee, graham and then round, bitter hops. Basically a paler CDA. Bitterness lingers for a while.

Intensely bitter, metallic, buttery to start. It’s assertive but distinctive, unexpected but hard to dislike. For me at least. Cereal and grassy hop bitterness close, though the finish is clean.

Lighter and fitter than the Azacca. Orange-pine, buttery notes. Light to medium bitterness on the finish, tastes sunny.

Slight hints of coconut, papaya, dry and almost roasted. I was almost reminded of coffee. Finish is oily and very bitter.

So I’m eating kinaa spicy food with this prolly not the best for partiality... also mike you’re missing the party get over here

A very generic-tasting hoppy bitter. Maybe alone it would have been fine but it suffered next to the Gold Crush.

Opens with a mild tangerine tang, finishes with toasted barley. Very well-balanced, and one of the highlights of the night.

Very much like the Shift, but moderately more roasty. Interesting to see the family resemblance in this flight.

A mild coffee stout, smooth. I thought it was tasty, but not super-distinctive.

Smoky, woody, ashy.

Mild, malty ale with brown sugar notes. Super-different from the other "bitter" in this flight. You'd never put them into the same style if you weren't told. Stylistically, I don't know where I'd fit this, actually.

They called this a passionfruit bitter. Tastes like a hoppy pale or a light IPA; very dry flavor with some pith. Of the two "bitters," I liked this one much less.

A lightly tangy saison with some nice vinous funk and good malt. Maybe my favorite beer of the night, and so appropriate!

A pleasant if unexciting pils. If it weren't on a flight with two noticeably better beers I'd have probably paid more attention to it.

Decent stout,a little caramel and syrup, but pretty mild. Easy drinking.

I'm sure everything I've written about this beer is wrong. Even this part about it being a fine beverage to enjoy whilst one patiently awaits their friends at a bar, wondering who among the people here are the people you're supposed to know but don't....

Slightly less bitter on the finish than last time, I think? A nice cap to the day.

Sweet malt on top of a slightly tangy yeast base. The literature says this is a helles lager, and it fits the bill pretty nicely. As a bonus, this is the least bitter beer I've had from this brewery, so they can actually manage that.

Maybe the least bitter beer I've had here, with a biscuity, caramel flavor and a smooth finish. Not much in the way of holiday spices as promised in the description, but it was a pleasant beer.

A real foreign export stout, with a medium-strong spicy hop presence poking through a dry, slightly tangy stout, with plenty of malt sweetness and roast. Not my favorite style of stout, but given that, it was perfectly fine.

Tons of vibrant, orangey citrus on the nose here. Usually when the scent is so rich the flavor comes across as over-perfumey, and that is certainly true here. There's almost an oily sheen to the flavor, which is good but can wear thin. Especially because there's very little backbone to the flavor. Oddly, this IPA had the least bitter finish of all the pales I've had here.

A light, sweet, slightly buttery ale with a rich, yellow color. Similar, perfumey quality shared with the other pale beers here, although with noticeably less citrus. Same acrid bitterness on the finish, as well, which was a negative. Otherwise, nice for such a lightly flavored beer

A rich, malty stout with notable smoke and chocolate flavors. Slightly sweet, with a smooth, creamy finish that starts mild but builds up a bit of bitterness. Tastes stronger than its 7.7% ABV.

A strong, fragrant lemony hop opening. Slightly buttery on the follow-through, ending with a light, sweet cereal flavor. Mild finish. Enjoyable, but just a bit perfumey.

A new brewery! This beer had a very pleasant caramelly biscuit flavor, with a bit of nutty yeast funk. A bit of fruit on the nose but not so much in the taste. The strike against this beer is an unexpectedly strong, yeasty bitterness in the finish.
