Logs for beers from this brewery

Impressions from my last log of this beer stand.
Thick, caramel, intensely sweet but with a chew that matches. Lightly tart on the finish with plum/apple. Did not detect peat at all.
Opens pretty strongly fruity, tangerine-like, sweet, before transitioning to a high-alpha bitterness. The perfume from the opening lingers, so does the bitterness.
I wish I'd taken more notes here, but I didn't. I think it was my second favorite of the flight though, after the Rule #5.
Light coffee and cream. On nitro but feels exceptionally flat even in that context. A faint bit tart, but otherwise the flavor's okay.
Fine, but suffers in comparison to the Rule #5. Doesn't help that it was kind of room temperature. Light body, light cereal and a bit of a bubblegum sweetness.
Very flat, with a flavor like murky tropical citrus juice... and there's a rubber-ish quality to the bitterness that is off-putting.
Sharply sour pineapple with an unexpected clear vanilla note on top. The flavors aren't inappropriate, but I really don't think this worked. Didn't finish the taster.
Cloudy, strong cereal flavors; what I'd expect from an assertive but typical American lager but with a light florality on top to keep it elegant.
Refreshing, tart, but clean sour raspberry. Only the tiniest hint of funk, this really doesn’t resemble a beer. Only knock is that off all the berry flavors, raspberry is my least favorite.
A really clean, nice, rounded orange flavor. Blood orange? But also reminded me of mandarin. What it really brought to mind was the classic Goose Island Orange Cream sodas from the '90s.
Cereal/malty, just a hint of esters, brackish finish, not too boozy (which can be a danger with Maibocks). This was pretty much what I was looking for.
Yeasty Belgian with strong coriander and white pepper notes. More complex than the Aslan but not that far beyond.
Draft at Work
Grapefruity IPA, high alpha finish. Familial similarity to the Smith & Weizen, but with a lot more pith and less sweetness.
Draft at Work
Basically the beer equivalent of a Squirt. Sweetish, orange-grapefruit soda with some alcohol poking through. Thick texture almost makes me think of pulp.
Draft at Work
Caramel, coffee-like roastiness, and surprisingly hoppy. Very nice at first, although the bitterness built up strongly over time.
