Description
Craft beer is a passion, an obsession and a journey. This journey has opened our eyes (and taste buds) to some of the finest examples of beer this planet has to offer. Our tastes and expectations have forever changed, and so have our methods of enjoyment. From beer trades, to home brewing, to attending release parties and festivals one thing became clear… We rarely drink the same beer over and over again, and we love to share.

Draft pour at Westover Beer Garden. Poured a really nice, hazy yellow-orange color with a long lasting white head. Aroma was huge citrus, pine, resin. Grapefruit bitterness, some light tropical fruits. This went down way too smooth for 11%. Really nice stuff.

Certainly tastes like the bigger version of Roadie, which I just had, thought apparently Roadie is the dialed back version of this and Big Cat. I'm not sure I prefer this to Roadie--the extra booze and intensity goes slighlty off rails compared to Roadie's balance. Pours hazy yellow with some persistant soap bubbles. Grapefruit peel, some fresh pineapple. Caramel and booze come into this. finish is mostly tang with some sweetness. Tap at brewery.

Nelon is on point here. Plus, plenty of peach and nectarine vibes. Pours hazy yellow with pretty good head and lacing. Light hop tang finish. Great balance. Tap at Ocelot.

A little snappier than the Beer For Other People's weddings I just had, and even better on hops profile. Good saaz infusion. Some attic dust and earthiness. Pours clear golden with decent head and lacing. Crisp bitter end. Tap at brewery.

Nice crisp lager, with enough character to make it different from the regular. Something that tastes like nobel hops, and some attic dust, light lemon zest. Pours clear golden with decent head. Snappy finish. Tap at Ocelot.
