Tried on tap at the Florida Brew Fest 2011 addition. It pours deep dark brown with nice looking mocha head. The aroma is sort of earthy, burnt wheat toast, a faint sense of wood but devoid of the typical oak spiciness I would expect and kind of malt balls too. Interesting mix of aromatics to say the least. The taste offers up dark roasted malts, a thin layer of spicy black licorice, a hint or two of dark fruity esters and then drying out with a bit of wood and a modest level of spicy oak. Into the finish earthy and spicy hops join in to help round this thing out.

Tried on tap at the Florida Brew Fest 2011 addition. It pours clear copper with gold edges and nice off white head. The modest strength aroma offers up a wort like graininess, pine and a thin layer of grapefruit. The brew enters with initially what seems like a pretty thin body bringing up some a firm level of pine hops, some grapefruit and then growing resininess as well as a little bit of slick sweetness. To midway it starts to seem a bit grainy and earthy with what I expect is the influence of the spelt. The moderate level of graininess into the finish helps dry it out some. This is a spelt IPA? This is pretty darn solid with hops far forward of the speltiness.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). Pour is clear light golden with a smallish pure white head. Aroma of very light grain, maybe a touch of dusty earthiness. Taste is straight macro lager, and served pretty warm. The malt grain is light in front, passes quickly and a decent mineral finish follows through to the aftertaste. Palate is a bit above light bodied, soft but low carbonation, lingering mineral finish. Simple, though fairly clean.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). Pour is a golden, with a bit of copper, smallish egg white head. Aroma of not much at all, maybe a bit of cracker malt. Taste is. Similarly benign, really not much taste at all - slight cracker malt, bit of fruit hoppiness in the back. Palate is light bodied with below avergae carbonation. Dull and forgettable.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). Pour is clear ruby light brown with an off white head. Aroma is minimal light fruit sweet and malt. Very reserved nose. Taste is roast malt, along with the cracker and biscuit malt. Finish picks up sweetness, and ends relatively clean. Palatee is thin to medium bodied, slightly below average carbonation, ad a lingering sweet roast aftertaste. Somewhat interesting beer.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). I was told this was the raspberry version. Pour is clear light golden with a smallish pure white head. Aroma of very light grain, maybe a touch of dusty earthiness and only a hint of the raspberry (chemical, unnatural). Taste is the nose, and a touch more natural, but not much. Palate is light bodied, dull carbonation. Opposite of the blonde, this actually tasted better as it warmed.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). This was the reserve selection - pour is golden copper, clear with a dirty white head. Aroma is grain, light honey sweetness. Faint. Taste is the sweetness right up front, honey and sweet caramel malt transitioning to a more traditional cereal grain. Palate is thin to medium bodied, lower carbonation and a bit of a sweet bite to the finish.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). This was the seasonal selection - pour is clear dark brown with a smallish off white head. Aroma is mild roast, along with a milk sweetness. As with all the other Brewzzi beers, very subdued nose. Taste is a nice pine hop and roast malt combination. Simple, but clean and well balanced. Palate is light to medium bodied with a nice soft carbonation. The hops give this a nice dry fresh finish. The last beer I tried on the sampler tray, and my favorite.
