On tap @ brewery. Kind of hazy brown appearance with a team head. Hops are very spicy in the nose. Pine and resin. The roast in the flavor is a bit harsh. Fairly bitter. Weedy, herbal, pine flavor. Bleh.

On tap @ brewery. Pretty clear golden appearance with a white head. Dank aroma with some StalinCat piss offered. Virus and grapefruit as well. Quite spicy and resiny hop flavor. Garlic and onion. A bit too sweet and strong for my taste. Seems like they could have a nice beer of they dialed this in a bit.

On tap @ brewery. 8.2% abv. Clear golden appearance with a white head. Pepper, straw/hay, a bit grainy aroma but honestly it doesn’t smell like much at all. Medium bodied. A little strong on the alcohol. Some peach / stone fruit notes like their other saison. Slight apple / bubblegum note. OK, I guess.

On tap @ brewery. Hazy light yellow appearance with a foamy white head. Tangy peach / tropical fruity aroma with a bit of spiciness. Light bodied. Slight apple / peach fruitiness. Fairly dry. Easy drinking. Fine.

Tap at the brewery - turbid amber - nearly headless - aroma and flavors of fig, dough/yeast, raisin, maraschino cherries, booze/rum - a fair amount of heat in the finish, but not any more than I would expect from the abv - low carbonation with a kind of slick mouthfeel - stale hop character - meh.

Tap at the brewery - dark with minimal lace - simple aroma of candi sugar, raisin, alcohol - low carbonation - flavor is raisin, toffee, a touch of treacle, not much else - finish has a lot of alcohol heat and flavor - minimal belgian character - mostly just sweet and boozy.

Tap at Jagged Mountain - hazy light amber - impressive, lasting head - billed as a belgian rye dipa - nose is mostly rye and dank american hops - flavor has mild belgian esters that work decent enough with the strong american hop presence - flavors of grapefruit, pine, floral notes - earthy rye and light yeast dustiness - one of the better beers I’ve had here, but the finish is a little hot.

Turbid light gold - almost looks like a witbier - nose is mostly a showcase for the hops, which is a mixed bag - the more pleasant citrusy notes of the centennial and galaxy are intruded upon by some garlicky simcoe - some grassy notes - medium body, decently frothy carbonation in the mouth - flavor is actually fairly tangy, with some flavors of white wheat, lemon - moderate acidity makes was for hop flavors of garlic, grass, citrus - finish has an off putting sourness and an alsk urine-like hop note - another miss here for me - you migt only have one more shot with me, Jagged Mountain.

Turbid brown - not particularly attractive - nose of garlicky, oniony hops (summit or simcoe) and a very mild earthiness - flavor is dry and semisour - mostly garlicky hops, moderate mineral, earthy/mushroom malt character - finish and light mineral and acidity - not terrible, but I wouldn’t order it again.

Cloudy orange - mild nose of lightly toasted grains and that’s about it - flavors of neutral yeast, mild acid/tartness, light dough - moderate toasted grain, a touch of earth - finish is nearly sour, with lingering toastiness - very mild, unoffensive, but certainly unimpressive.
