Location: Bottle from Spec's - Downtown shared with jcos and dbarnold, 5/23/14
Aroma: The nose is light, clean malts, some caramel, and some fruit as well
Appearance: It pours a mostly clear orange color with a small head and some mild lace
Flavor: The taste is similar, lightly sweet, clean, malty, and with a mild bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, not hot at all considering the ABV, with a smooth, clean finish
Overall Impression: This is a pretty solid one. It has a nice flavor and a smooth, clean feel. I'm glad to have tried it.

Comes together ok. Finishes with some light bitterness. Pretty good. Smoked malt with roasty chocolate, very nice for smoked beer. Bottle shared at Epic Sour Tasting.

A particularly decent barleywine that appeals to my British predecessors (I don’t know what the hell I was saying at this point in the night). My fingers smell like nail polish remover, but this is good. Some Belgian yeast, and almost more like a Belgian Strong than Barley. Well integrated. Bottle thanks to someone at Epic Sour Tasting.

Fairly clear light amber coloured body with an orange glow at the bottom and a decent light brown glow at top - odd. Aroma of pungent earthy and perfumey hops with a large oatmeal and malt nose. Medium-bodied; Deep earthy and pungent malt note with a lot of bitterness and a light caramel and toffee touch. Aftertaste shows a hint of hops but largely showing a varied malt profile with oatmeal by far the strongest. Overall, an interesting and pungent beer with some good flavours and a deep backbone of oatmeal that shows well. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whip In yesterday, 05-May-2014 in Austin, Texas for US$2.50 sampled in my hotel room here in Austin, Texas on 06-May-2014.

I like the name of this beer because it describes my short visit to San Antonio. Draft at Flying Saucer. Clear bright amber color, tan head. Aroma of subtle caramel. Taste is very bitter toasted caramel. Very nice body.

Bottle at Meddlesome Moth. Cloudy amber color with a medium thin white head that diminishes quickly to an outer ring. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of tart cherries, yeast and oak. Medium-bodied with flavors of cherry wine, oak, yeast and subtle vinegar. The finish is mildly funky with a cherry aftertaste. Decent overall.

Bottle - Sweet wood and bacony smoke, dark and rich malts. Jet black with a rich light brown head. Raisin, molasses, smoke and a bit of a vinous, peaty almost acidic finish. Very nicely done.
