I unique style, the full bodied roastiness combined with high alcohol warmth and sourness to go with it. Lacking head formation, but the body is smooth. The sourness is mild, probably just because it's competing with such strong malts, all around good beer though. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This is the new 2016 "cherry monkey". The stout itself is very nice, thick and heavy. The cherry flavour is quite mild and largely overpowered by the base malts. Especially considering how many cherries the brewer told me they used. Nothing off about this. The alcohol warmth makes this a perfect winter sipper. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This is paddock wood's best beer I think theyve ever made. The cayenne spice is perfect and the stout itself has a great recipe with nice chocolate notes. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Not a bad ipa, a little astringent off flavour. But the bitterness isn't harsh. It's overpriced as all hell for a decent ipa. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

2015 version and sour. Brewed with Brett. Sourness is relatively mild, but good. Dark, but not a lot of roastiness. This beer has changed completely over the years. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Head has a hue I haven’t seen before: somewhere between beige, brown, and cherry, on top of a black body with hints of red. Aroma is a lot of fruity barley, like chewing on a chocolate covered cherry. Lots of sweetness there, but not too complex. Flavour is a heavy and warm pumpernickel (poured it warm anyway), chocolate sunday, lindt 70% cocoa kind of cholate vibe with hints of liqueur. Chewy and sweet, a big leathery slap in the face to finish it off. Good stuff, well balanced, a big beer but still very drinkable.

Nice brown head and black body. Aroma of barley with sharp notes of sweetness. Flavour is a lot of smooth roasted barley but without much definition. Okay on the mouth. Not too interesting.

330mL bottle, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out Belgian yeast, dough, almond extract and estery notes. Flavour is similar, with almond extract, ester notes and yeast. Pretty everything wrong about North American tripels -- sweet, estery, and phenolic. Not good.

Bottle from the Craft Beer Advent Calendar
Golden color, bright, with small head. Some almond aroma, puckery flavor, sweet, boozy, and with the strong estery component of fake American/Belgian yeast.
I find this one really hard to swallow.
