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.

On tap at Big Hunt pours a very murky, neon orange with some slim, white head. Nose has lots of tropical fruit, some guava and Asian pear, lots of yeasty esters, some perfume, some muscato. Flavor is sweet, lots of fruit, a little honey, guava, pear, tangerine, white grape. Full bodied, sticky finish. Kinda cool.

Sampled at Meridian Pint, pours a neon purple/pink with zero head. Nose has under ripened berry, mild grape, some perfume, some yogurt. Flavor has more yogurt, white grapefruit, vitamin C, mild berry, mild tea. Finishes lightly tart. Bump up the acid and make it worth our while.

Sampled at Meridian Pint, pours a hazy gold with some lacing, white head. Nose is Kolsch-y to a point, straw, malt, perfume, mild yeast. Flavor has lemon, perfume, yeast, spicy finish. Why not just back the ABV down and make this a straight forward Kolsch?

Sampled at Meridian Pint, pours a murky, deep mahogany brown with lots of lacing, off white head. Roasty nose, toast, dark chocolate, molasses, coffee grounds. Perhaps a bit simple. Flavor is all roast, burnt toast, coffee grounds, burnt caramel, mildly meaty. Dry finish. Maybe a little too simple.
