Can at the DCBeer May share. Poured a clear golden color, small white head. Aroma was bit citrus, light herbal hop, with some resin. Flavor was really ncie pine, citrus. Really nice, big. You can really feel the heat in this one, it's big but not overpowering.

16oz can pours a pulpy, burnt orange with some ringing white head. Big peach cobbler nose, oranges, mango, lots of balance. Some grist and brown sugar. This grew on me. More melon and tropicals in the mouth. Some guava now. Full, fruity, off dry finish.

16oz can pours a clear, nut brown with some creamy, khaki head. Nose is malty, nutty, some root beer barrels, some fall fruit notes which were odd but not unpleasant. Flavor has some of that plum and date, malt, rootbeer barrels. Earthy. Easy to drink, medium bodied.

Excellent Ocelot beer, once again. Great amarillo hops here. Nice vibe. Pours clear golden with good head. Almonds and passion fruit, maybe tangerine. A hint of pine. Bitter end. Seriously nice. Tap at brewery.

Draft pour at Dominion Wine and Beer. Poured a kind of dark plum color, basically flat. Big malt and even bigger wheat on the nose, raisin and plum. Sweet booze really comes out in this one. There's a significant amount of barrel aging on this one. Mellowed out as it warmed.

16oz can pours a lightly hazy gold with some sticky white head. Nice nose and the nectaron shines. Very peachy, not sweet, grass and lime, gooseberry. Flavor has white plum and gooseberry and lime. Light grist and straw. Tannic and lightly bitter. Medium bodied. Well made.

Oak tannin, raisin and plum. Maybe some apricot. Pours clear brown without any head. Syrupy consistency. Some lemon, pineapple. Sweet and boozy end, with bitter oak. A solid beer, but compared to the rest of the 10th anniversary lineup, maybe not up to that transcendental tier. Tap at Ocelot.

Jesus, this anniversary selection is banger followed by more banger followed by uber banger. This, I guess is the more uber extra banger. Well, I'm torn between this and the #4. Because I prefer a West Coast sensibility, but this one speaks to my heart with the Nelson grapefruit. Murky orange pour without much head. Lots of kiwi, both the fruit and the place. Tangerine peel. Body is decent for a hazy--it packs a dose of bitterness here. A little hop tang but not much--body of evidence like Madonna here. Tap at brewery.

Rich as fuck. Forget 2006, I love this now, and perhaps more now because these beers are harder to find in 2025. Lots of pine. It's been a minute since I tasted a beer with this certian rich body. Lots of Simcoe, and definitely get the amarillo. Pours clear golden with good soap bubbles. Bitter end. Awesome beer. Tap at brewery.
