The oily pungency of this IPA sits kind of uneasily on a basic bed of strong alcohol in this beer. It's intense and a bit off, and finishes with a kind of sour dankness too. I'm not sure if there's something for someone to love here, or if my palate is off, but I really don't like this beer.

Fudgy cream stout, sweet with a slightly sour finish. What knocks this down is something off in the fragrance, at odds with the flavor.

Chalk this up to “should have known better” but usually my weird bets pay off. Right up front this is sulfurous and skunky, then the funk never resolves into something that makes sense. This is just funky without much identifiable mushroom or salt, and unpleasantly drying to boot.

Light but actually reminds me of sake; fruity, vinous notes and just sweet.

Syrupy, and strongly vanilla in the same way as the Vaca. Very strong, and I couldn’t really have done more than this splash? Ends tacky.

Not like any other Baltic Porter I can remember, this is quite hoppy, to the extent I might have compared this to a CDA. Not roasty, round hop flavors.

Very vanilla, light coffee. There’s something earthy, nutty in the fragrance. IMO this is too sweet and finishes tacky.

More juicy than tart. Definitely fruity, but tastes more Like a dried peach or apricot to me than the fresh variety—has the same kind of molassesy? finish.

Pale, almost transparent, but extremely drinkable. Sweet, cereal. Light without tasting watery.

Plummy with a light overtone of booze. Has the same rooty, vegetal sweetness that seems common to all the beers in this flight.

Not as dark as I tend to think of for CDAs, but the flavor is familiar. Rooty and astringent, not so roasty though.

Bitter and just a bit tart, finishes clean.

Drier than most whites, I think, with very little cereal sweetness. Hints of citrus.

Thicker than the nut brown, a little harsh on top, this is definitely a beer that is more about the nut than the pie. It’s not really sweet although it has a bit of molasses sugar in the background.

Still pretty prickly for a nitro, which means it worked for me. Roasty but smooth brown ale, friendly ad hoc bar situation.

Unusual style, I like this a lot. Tasted a bit like a coffee Schwarzbier, I guess. Light roast, light body, lactic finish.

Honey forward, but you can still tell it’s a triple.

Darker and more caramel than I expected, lots of banana, lots of orange flavor contributing to a more tart finish. Can’t tell if this is more American or European, the flavors sit in the middle.

Slightly tart, building up over time. Definitely strawberry and rhubarb, with a bit of a malty beer finish.

Strong pine/lemon IPA.
