12 ounce can from Jack's Fresh Mart Menominee, 4/22/24. Typing that date was much more satisfying in 2022. But rating in two days will be just as satisfying. Black, large tan head, good retention. Aroma of roast, cherry. Taste is trong cherry, roast, chocolate, coffee. Tart from the cherries. Well balanced, Nice.

This sour ale smells of tart peaches and malt. The flavor is moderately tart and peachy. It’s pretty tasty. Honestly I'm not certain if this is a renamed "Peachy Pom Pom" or a reformulated one. The ABV and IBUs are a bit different.

Save half for the husband. Not the beer. The beer is all mine.

Pours hazy amber brown with a small off white head. The aroma is full of fall spices. The flavor is malty and spicy. There’s caramel, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Pretty good.

Pours near black with a dense, inch deep tan head that lingers. It smells mainly of chocolate malt. The flavor is on the sweet side and is dominated by chocolate malt. It’s somewhat roasty and is balanced enough to not be overly sweet. I’d call this one a lighter porter and I prefer robust porters, but it’s alright.
