Received in trade from tedpeer, thanks for the opportunity. Pours a slightly hazy deep amber color with a smallish bubbly off white head that sticks around for a bit. Smells of "C" hops. Nice citrusy, grapefruit aroma. Slight soapy aroma in the background as well. Some caramel malt hidden too. Taste shows more of the malt with some caramel coming out and the hops fading into the background a bit. Citrus bitterness lingers in the finish. Medium body, Crisp carbonation. Decent session brew. I liked it a lot but the soapy aroma threw me a little bit.

12oz bottle, labeled Back Road Stout. Opaque brownish-black with a thick beige head. Malty, oatmeal, chocolate milkshake aroma. Very sweet stuff, does the style justice. Hmm..stylistically this is a mystery...if it used lager yeast wouldn’t that make it a Dunkel? It certainly fits that mold, with maybe some added roasty chocolate tones. Sweet and creamy, quite sugary but oh so nice. Well done.

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt and wheat. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and wheat. The body is light. All in all it’s boring.

Bottle shared by Sean, an Iowa tick and I didn’t even know it! Thanks! Poured a clear brown with a near white head that dissipated completely. Aroma was full of sweet grains and sweet chocolates. Flavor began with sweet grains and a mainly sweet chocolate grew through the finish.

bottle thanks to Danny at the Tally tasting. Pours light brown with a medium off white head. Aroma is doughy, some yeast and toasted malts. Flavor is rather bland, lightly toasted malt, some brown sugar.

bottle pours pale yellow with a light white head. Strong wheat and pale malt aroma. Corn and wheat sweetness that ends clean, an easy drinker.

12 oz bottle. Pours dark amber color, thin white head that disappears quickly, scant lacing. Aroma of scotch and hay. Taste is bitter start to finish, pretty well balanced. Slightly bitter, dry finish. Decent.

Majestic thanks to Probiere for getting me this big rude on style IPA!. Creamy thin head. Gunk on bottom of bottle. Rather thick and viscous looking in the glass. Sweey smell, but not piny nor perfumy. First taste is big IPA and malt blast, wew. Not much here for a lager lover to enjoy! Some welcomed CO2 sizzle mellows the plate. Long bitter medicinal linger. Disgustingly on style. Roto-tiller taste bud maximus! Thanks for allowing me the chance to try this and no thanks for ruining my taste buds, heheh!

Bottle at a tasting. Thanks Shachar. Hazy yellow with a huge frothy white head. Aroma of yeast, wheat, citrus and some spiciness. Flavor starts a bit sweetish but is dominated by spiciness - with some coriander, citrus, wheat and flowers - and by the middle turns dry and bitter. Medium-bodied. A nice enough Wit.
