Drought. Tried at second place of Istmo Brewpub near Sheraton. Rich yellow color with spongy off white head, slight citrus aroma, lightly sour fruity taste, low carbonation, long finish. Not a bad brew.

Smells yeast, a little like a Belgian ale. The guy told me this was a mix of the cocle and the colon. Not sure what he meant by that - whether he just mixed them together. He did say there were only two taps working at the time. Anyway, it definitely tastes like a mix of the other two. Aftertaste is a little smoky like whatever was in the tap before Colon. Pours brownish. On tap at brewpub.

Smells of roast malt. POurs cloudy brown. Good lacing and head. Taste is crisp and bitter. Palate is pretty simple here. A little coffee in aroma. On tap at brewpub.

Not sure what this is supposed to be but it tastes super smoky. I suspect they didn’t clean their taps well before switching them out. Pours pretty pale/clear blond. Also smells a little like floral hops. Light bitterness at end. Very carbonated with bubbly head and some lacing. Actually preferred this to the other two beers I tried here. On tap at brewpub.

Clear yellow color, small white head. Honey, sweet wort in aroma. Light to medium bodied. Honey, some citrus, a bit grainy flavor. Short, sweet finish. Uninspiring, but honey is not at least too attacking here. If I understood correctly, this was brewed for their oktoberfest.

Not sure about the style. Clear amber color, steady off-white head. Aroma is a bit herbal, malty, also vegetables in the nose. Medium-bodied. Caramel, malts, slightly more alcoholic flavor than the other Istmo brews.
