sample @ SDBC, courtesy of Dean, brewmaster. Tapped the keg just so I could enjoy it fresh. That beer really live dup to its Gold Medal status. Pours golden/orange, white head. Aroma is hoppy, melon, nice fresh nose, with hints of raspberry. Taste, superbly hoppy, fruity - melon, citrus finish) sweet, some spices, not a hop bomb, though present, it just remains well balanced and easy to drink.

sample @ SDBC Pours golden, thin white head. Aroma and taste, hoppy, malty, sugary fruits with hints of apple and banana. The aroma had a distinct flavor that I could not pinpoint and made the aroma on the bizarre side.Finish is light, enjoyable and fruity, though not what I had expected of the style.

sample @ SDBC wow, hard to put this one down. Pours black, with mocha head. Aroma and taste, chocolate malts, light lactic notes and cocoa. Use of brown chocolate with not much of bitter side to it. Smooth, just a nice combination makes this one an easy drink.
