Draught at the brewpub
Cloudy golden color, small yoghurt head. Funky aroma, a bit corky, spicy, bready, nice. Lean mouthfeel, with light residual sweetness; it has some yeast character, but also a bit of vegetables, and some pithy bitterness in the end.
The aroma is on the right track, the flavor needs some adjustment.

Cloudy amber color. The aroma is more malty and biscuity than expected, not much Citra. Soft mouthfeel; some cardboard flavor, chicory, bread, strong bitterness but only very little Citra.Dubious.

Black color with generous brownish head. Roasted malt aroma. Roasted malt flavor, the maple is not evident, the tequila doesn’t work well as never it does with beer, no bourbon.
Not a bad beer, but just a messy thing.

Cloudy blond color with floaties (hop leaves). Nice aroma, not fresh obviously, with sweaty hops, and some oranges. Soft mouthfeel, nice malt flavor, and strong orange character, correctly bitter, with a bit of yeast flavor too.
Very nice aged IPA.

Dark brown. Thin head. Aroma is a bit smokey toasty raisin bread. Kind of burnt on the palate, burnt sugar, scorched raisins. Crazy character, very different, scorched pizza crust malts.

Dark brown color, almost black. Dry mouthfeel, but not weak; the roasted malt flavor has a dark bread character, almost rye, and some dark chocolate; ends with light sourness.
Very nice, interesting.

Golden ale, hazy. Smooth, undercarbonated, the aroma is a bit yeasty, but the spicy character of the yeast is too low, bit for flavor and aroma, and it has a vegetable note in the final.
Imprecise.

Draught at the brewpub
Cloudy pale blond color. Delicate fruity aroma, a bit yeasty and sweaty too. Light, weak mouthfeel, quite dry, it has some lactic acid, it’s not very spicy, but quite lemony. The final is short.
Refreshing.
