A deep dark stout with no head. In aroma, dark bitter chocolate with light soy sauce and light acidity. In mouth, dark molasses and bitter chocolate, light ashes, ok.

A dark brown stout with a thin browb head. In aroma, coffee espresso with pungent character, bitter chocolate, nice. In mouth, a smooth chocolate with powdery character, not bad.

Strange beast but a good one. Pours clear amber with decent head and lacing. Carbonation is pretty high but it’s a lager. Aroma of malt, some booze and lots of piney hops. Definitely good for category, and even holds up well next to most pale ales. Tap at Session.

Pours clear orange with ok head and lacing. Very heavy on maple. Syrupy texture. Aside from maple, aroma has some malt and lots of booze. Very sweet finish. Tap at Session.

Another great IPA today from Flying Monkeys. Better than session and runs pretty evenly against Mosaic. Nice tangerine head with some other sweet fruit. Pours cloudy orange with good head and lacing. Bitter and even spicy finish. Average carbonation. Good mileage on aftertaste again. Flying Monkeys definitely had best showing at Session this year.

Super piney IPA. Pours a nice unfiltered cloudy orange with some lacing and not much head. Average carbonation, smooth texture. Very bitter finish tat does the miles with aftertaste. Great session IPA with some citrus. Tap at Session.

Wow. I’ll spank the monkey over this beer for sure. Amazing integration. Pours black with good mocha-coloured head and lacing. Roast malt with cane sugar, caramel and chocolate. Finishes sweet and bitter. Great balance on this beer - definitely the best beer of Session in 2013. Hope they keep making this.
