16 oz draft at The Club ATL. Pours a slightly hazy yellow-gold color with a small white head and poor retention. No lacing either. Barely any pale malt aroma. Very basic, generic pale lager flavor with light lemon notes and a slightly metallic finish. Meh. Medium-light body. High carbonation. Low bitterness.

Crisp and grainy, with notes of honey, yeast, fresh flowers, and a touch of apple, followed by cut grass and a modest floral bitterness. Kind of plain for an anniversary beer but not bad.

Pours near black with a tan head. It smells of dark roast malt and coffee. The flavor is big on the same, roast character keeping the malty brew from being too sweet. There’s a creamy, medium body and a roasty finish. Very good

Pricey $4 single from Appalachian. No born on date. Shame, shame. Wait, website says 7.12.24, cool. Tall & sticky bleached head over a slightly chill hazed pale gold pour. Average smell of sweet grain, iron, honey, spinach. Got a slight clove note. Taste is lightly floral, honey, very mild herbal hops & faint citrus pleasantries. Some acid on the back. Lingering herbal. Not a whole lot of grain complexity here. None of that sweet decocted action noted. Hey, it's frothy & cold. Tis okay to almost good.

Bright red color and a light berry aroma. Light body and flavor of mild peach and berries with a seltzer-like dry finish. Easy drinking.

Pounder from Appalachian, canned 11/09/23. Crispy, mostly clear, pale honey gold pour with a lingering, fluffy head. Soft water, chemmy, sharp malt nose. Bite-y, acidic, long estery, strong & sweet, buttery malt, light herbal bitterness, sweet grass, sweet corn backend. Desperate for more of a bitter bite. Frothy, solid carb, just a bit thick. Very meh.

Very fruity, with melon, stone fruit, coconut, pineapple, and citrus pith on the front end, followed by lime zest and a touch of chive on the back, and a mineral bitterness in the fade. Pretty good pint.

Notes from 10/31/17 750ml bottle & tap from the source. Tulip glass. Cloudy, straw body. Foamy, almost meaty head. White wine, apricots, bubblegum, residual yeasts. Really floral on tap, a little less so much j bottle. Taste is dry, dusty, white wine & green table grapes. Juicy, moderately bitter hops, with a grainy wheat texture. Weird concord grape finish that seals it. Edible. Chewing on the glass grab and yeasty grain combo. Good stuff.
