12 oz twist off bottle - part of a World Market beers of summer mixed pack. Pour is hazed yellow golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is citrus sweet, wheat, and a bit of a dirty honey smell which detracts. Taste has the same unclean citrus honey sweetness of the nose, along with a nice wheat taste in the middle through the finish. The US just levelled with Ghana, suddenly this beer tastes better! Palate is unfiltered, medium bodied, with a dry grain finish. Decent enough.

Pour is a black with a small tan head. Aroma is dissapointing. Very weak with just a small amount of the roasted malt. Flavor is a little better. A decent helping of chocolate with a minor helping of coffee and roasted malt at the end. This is very weak for the style on the other hand this could be an Impy stout for beginners looking to slowly get into the style.

Tea, barley malt, honey nose. Shimmering amber, no head. Pronounced tomato flavor with lemon hint. More lemon peel in the end. Rather evgetal which may indicate a flaw, but it is quite palatable.

Oh yes, an APA that is slightly less than the IPA, very typical APA. Has a little happy dull hoppy aroma. Initial flavor that of medium off hops that mellows to a bready palate. Yes, quite beery fer sure. Not overly done on the hops but enough to let you know its a slightly rude ale. Filtered yellow with a thicker fluffy white head. Finish is lite IPA with some green grapefruit rind.

Burly probably means in reference to macro loager lover in thei case. Purchased again under a different name, how rude. Anyhow it wwas origanally a 3.3 but I lowered it. ....../////......Twist off cap on a 12 oz brown bottle. Pour is a good representation of a dark beer, half inch tan head. Smell is just plain beery good. Nice mild roasty flavors that are not overwelming, almost comes across like a very mild well carbonated stout or porter. Some wet old burnt wood flavors are hiding back in there. Pleasant and easy to drink, goes down easy without any rude ale-ness that I detect in stronger beers any more. Hides the 5% well. A good overall mild beer experience. Right up there with the better brown ales such as Hub City Brown Ale or cotton wood but not quite as good as East End Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Twist off cap, heheheh. Quick hoppy aromatic aroma and olfactory presence dull blast on the openeing of the lid, almost buttery but not quite. Pour is rather viscous and nearly syrupy. Certainly looks like a thicker brew out of the bottle and into the glass. No head, just pond toppings. First taste is big and rude, on style for a big heavy IIPA. Double imperial ipa fer sure. Shock Staulk. Some carbonation but forget about that because everything is so over thop with the hops for sakes alive. Lasts forever in between swigs, wew. Seems more greasy hops than the abv indicates. But now I see its at least 8.5%, too much for this dizzy lager lover. Has a bit of a kick to it mindjya. Long bitter terrible soap on tongue on style finish, nasty raspy pewton.

Pour is a dark brown with a average tan head. Aroma is roasted malts with some smokeyness. Flavor is again a decent roasted malt follwed by a resiny hop toward the end. Above average beer espically for Point I guess you could call this a schwartz ale.

On tap at Crunchy’s, East Lansing. Deep red-brown body, thin off-white head. Nose of sweet chocolate, molasses, and toast. Sweet Hershey’s syrup body with molasses and licorice, light and somewhat cloying.
