Pale, a bit dull, some haze. Medium head. Fruity hop aroma, with a bit of orange to it. The malts are relatively light, not super exciting. The bitterness is okay, the brightness is...well it's a bit dull.

Pours a very dark brown with moderate tannish head. Aromas of roasted barley, a little chocolate and a little lactose. Flavors of soft roasty malts. Clean. OK.

Yeasty with slight spiciness, similar palate, so a bit rough for a pils. Slight doughiness. This really misses on the fermentation.

Orangey raspberry colour. No head. Tart, with a mix of fruit notes. The orange is good, mango lends a bright accent. Sour base is standard, clean, unobtrusive.

Amber-brown. Thin head. Soft body, good malts, some biscuity accents, cookieish, nutty. Not as well developed as I prefer but respectable. A touch yeasty but there'�s good things here.

Dark brown, thin head. Lots of coconut, pretty good body for a regular sized stout. This has pineapple and it lends a bright fruitiness, and somehow doesn'�t ruin it -nicely done.

Amber, just a touch of chill haze. Moderate bitterness, a fuckton of fir. It'�s dominant but I am okay with that. Mellow malt base.

Amber, sort of a murky haze, not much head. Some soft malt, the hops aren'�t super bright, then the rye chewiness comes in the finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Bob'�s Your Uncle Rye IPA on 08 May 2024 at 04:24 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.
