What else members are drinking

Roast, chocolate, strong alpha hop bitterness that lingers. Something a little burnt as well.
Draft
Caramel, tacky, lightly sweet. Pretty balanced.
Draft
Fizzy, spice-forward. More caramel than roast, the impression is almost like a root beer.
Draft
A generally-mild tasting IPA with a very pungent apricot/resin nose and finish. Definitely gives the impression of an oily aromatic layer coating the surface of the beer.
Bottle
Really nice, actually! A touch of dried fruit, cinnamon, some herbal bitterness, but also a drinkable, light, porter at heart. I think I prefer this to the more naked spice character of the Festivus.
In context, this was a very weird followup to the other beers. The increased fruity hop character was jarring. Lots of caramel. Definitely prickly.
Very nicely balanced, roasty stout. There's a vegetal/earthy coffee base here with a sweet cream finish. I don't know if you can taste purple, but aside from that (this just looks like a stout) it did make me think of an ube latte for sure.
Sweet, tart, jammy, with a butter cookie-like aftertaste. Very much tastes like the filling of a blueberry pastry.
Caramel, lightly roasted. Coffee. Carbonation's a bit spiky, but this is really pleasant to drink with a very dry finish.
Elysian The Big Blackness (unknown release)
Can't believe they served this in a pint glass.
Juicy and lightly fruity; apricot and citrus. Mild cereal finish.
Solid export stout although it's probably not as hopped as the style might demand. It's yummy, though.
Caramel, light flavor, what you probably want from a dark lager. Honestly, my taste buds are probably completely burnt out by now.
Light, almost watery, but not quite. Decent example of a simulated macro lager. I liked it, but I bet there would have been more nuance in this if this wasn't where it was in the order tonight! Will have to try again.
Cacao, a hint of coconut. Much thinner than some of these other bombs. A really nice change.
Here Today Home Opener (unknown release)
Molasses, sugar, dates. Raisin. A little too sweet.
Caramel, plum, spice. I'm running out of nuance in my taste buds, but this is delicious.
Cacao bomb. Sweet and thick. But quite tasty.
Smells like vinegar but the taste is actually not so sour. Masa and salt... definitely getting a tortilla chip quality here.
