If you like impy stouts, ignore my numbers and read on. Big impy stout look, black opaque and a choco moose head. Not too roasty on the smell, olfactory is rather mild. Has a lot of IPA character in this one, at least thats what my tongue says. Creamy dark burned roastiness follows. Long bitter impy stout finish. Quite flat. Gimmie a chaser of old heathen!

If you like IPA, ignore my numbers, this stuff is on style. Slightly hazy, smells like mild IPA, not overly floral on the olfactory. Nice lacing. Big obnoxious IPA pine tar flavors. Quite rude and crude to say the least. IPA lovers will dig this, but not me, heheh. Finish is not quite flat bitter lingering medicine. yew.

On tap at Peg’s Brewpub. Yummy, yummy from the start. Sour tart olfactory with a hint of farminess. Lovely and mildly sour taste bud impact, really complex yet light. Quite sessionable, I wish I had my growler. Delicious, nice finish. Like sour gingerale, yea baby. I really enjoyed this, good job, Pegs Beirmester!

On tap at Peg’s. It pours out a prefect looking IIPA with a opaque hazy copper body with golden hues, lasting tan head and sheet lacing. The aroma is assertive and unmistakable citrus with tangelo, orange wedges and grapefruit to go along with some pine hops, grassiness and sweet malts at the end of the draw. The aroma is pretty amazing and I wonder if the taste can live up to it. The first sip has a brief moment of neutral flavors as my palate and brain can’t seem to handle the initial assault. Another sip or two has allowed my senses to adjust and I pick up first a tasty sweet wave of citrus hop flavor. Toward midway those innocent notes get crushed by grapefruit, orange peel, tangelo, pine, grassiness and a dash of tree sap resin hop bitterness. The bitterness just builds and builds and only begins to let up at the finish allowing a thin river of malt sweetness to surface. The malts do nothing to balance this beer out but sort of just say “here we are.” Lots of tasty hops that should please the hop headed like myself. Nice one Doug!

On tap at Peg’s. Pours clear deep gold with copper core and thin but persistent bright white head. The aroma is full up Belgian yeast with spices, sweet candi like sugar along with some wheat notes. The taste is smooth to start with a mix of yeasty Belgian spices, wheat and crisp ripe red apples. The flavors recede some into the finish revealing modest graininess and achieving some refreshing qualities.

On tap at Peg’s. Pours deep copper with orange hues, a bit of haze, near white head and clingy sheet lacing. The mild aroma has a bit of roast mixing with sweet malts as well as bitter grapefruit, orange peel and a touch of pine resin. I’m getting zero wood treatment in the aroma. The taste begins with a solid grapefruit hop bitterness, some sweet malts and roastiness. It gets a tad sweeter toward midway as a dash of citrus hop flavor mingles with sweet malts and soft subtle notes of maybe oak feebly murmuring to the surface. I don’t get cedar at all even though Doug told me he cedar aged it. Into the finish the hops pick up a thin layer of bitter pine resin to reinforce the IPA – ness of this tasty brew.

Poured up on tap at Peg’s Pizza Cantina a very dark brown with tall dark root beer float head. The aroma is roasty, sweet, a bit of black strap molasses, chocolate and a sense of black licorice. The taste is enhanced initially by carbonation kicking up notes of roasty to burnt malts and then some chocolate and a sense of coffee by midway. Toward the finish a note of black licorice surfaces and helps bring this to a roasty finish. It is being called a dark brown ale that is drinking much more like a very nice stout. Yum.

Pours hazy brown with copper edges and lasting tan head. The modest aroma is sugar sweet with a dash of caramel and dates. The taste begins with a bit of roastiness and a touch of roasted malt astringency. Quickly sweet notes of dates and figs invade the palate with a lingering carbonation tingle. Midway and to the finish I get caramel, mild roastiness, figs and dates mingling together. Nice stuff with a good balance between roastiness and sweetness.
