Draft pour enjoyed at Monkey 9, Richmond. Clean and clear golden pour with a patchy head. Crisp forward taste. Gentle grains, cool follow, a small plastic quality. Really easy drinking lager, with no off flavors. Not really unique but ultimately refreshing and enjoyable.

Draft pour enjoyed at Monkey 9. Cola brown pour, side by side with the coffee version. Even with the original version, some soft coffee notes come through. Toasty malts, amd a cool finish. Flavorful and easy drinking porter here.

Draft pout enjoyed at Monkey 9, Richmond. Does not get much more coffee than this. First sip is pure black coffee. Iced of course. Cola brown appearance. Big toasty, gritty coffee ground front. Must loge black coffee. Sharp black coffee bitter taste. Cool finish. Tasty for this coffee lover. I like my coffee beers how I like my coffee. No junk added. Enjoyed this.

Draft pour enjoyed at Monkey 9, Richmond. Unique imperial all around. Glowing golden haze. Sticky lacing. Lemon like, citrus hop nose. Cool flavor, some plastic, lingering citrus and booze. Sharp constant. Intense finish, with obvious signs of its imperial strength. Has a sweet side. Interesting. Not bad overall.

Touch of brett, slight haze, nice head. Kiss of soft malt. Good balance - the brett and malt go well together.

Fruity, some plastic. The fermentation isn’t great. I understand I should focus more but when the beer is off, what's the point?

Coconutty, pineaplle, sweet, not much hop. Overall not really getting it done. So sweet, not the best balance, adjuncts are okay, base beer adequate but that’s it.

Amber-brown. No head. Diacetyl. Sour. Just all kinds of nope. They actually pour this for the public. Amazing.

Weak wet clear gold body and modest foam. Soft butter on the nose, maybe vague honey. Taste is wet honey and cracker, quite nice but too thin and watery. A bit of attention to the body of the situation would help immensely.

Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Weak light clear gold body and modest foam. Good piney hops on the nose, hints of saffron. Taste is sharp pine, a hint of lemon zest and ending mostly crisp with okay oiliness. Delivering well on the hoppy front.
