Outsider Mezcal Pilsner Apparently made with lime powder it is a pale straw gold with a nice bready aroma. The medium to light body (though I do get a bit of chalkiness in the mouthfeel) gives you a somewhat sweet bready character some lime and a fairly crisp herbal bitter finish. A nicely balanced brew. Ap 4 Ar 7 t 7-8 p 4 o 13-4

Tap at Craft Beer Holiday. Outsider Pitbull Barleywine 15% Reddish brown almost black with a sweet caramel/molasses aroma. Apparently, aged two years, full bodied and sweet with boozy heat but tobacco and caramel. Lovely stuff. 3.8-9 ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Cloudy gold with a densely opaque white head of foam and a mild fruity aroma. Medium bodied whith an abrasive mouthfeel the taste is brash woodsy hops, bitter and kind of unbalanced. I even get some butterscotch notes they could be diacetyl. This feels a bit rushed and not up to the standards I’ve come to expect from Outsider. A bit disappointing, actually a lot as it continued to worsen as I drank it and gave me a metallic edge with the butterscotch diacetyl, yucky. My initial feeling was 3.2-3.3 but it kept getting lower in my estimation and honestly I didn’t feel like finishing. Honestly, what the??? Outsider can do wat the hell better than this mess that verges on the undrinkable. I actually poured half down the toilet, waste of money. Ap 4 Ar 6 t 5 p 3-4 o 9 ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
