Draft. A- Plums, sweet. A- Copper color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Plums, hard candy, sweet. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, sweet finish. O- Almost no sourness at all. They really need to sour it up. Aroma was much better than the taste which seems to be the case for all Boiler beers. More sourness and less sweetness would really make this great.

Draft. A- Smoke, bacon. A- Copper color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Bacon, smoke. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, meaty finish. O- Tons of smoke and umami. A bit thin but overall tasty. Not sure why this is listed as a brown ale. It’s definitely a smoked beer.

Draft. A- Raspberry. A- Dark red color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Raspberries, soda. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly tart finish. O- A bit too soda like. Knowing what they did with the Raspberry Berliner Weisse, I’m a tad shocked this isn’t better but still decent.

Draft. A- Smores, graham crackers, chocolate, marshmallow, vanilla. A- Black color, black liquid, white head. T- Smores, chocolate sauce, marshmallows, graham crackers. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- The official name of this beer is actually "This is not a S’Mores Stout, Just a Tribute." Stupid name but a damn good beer. Almost too good! This literally is like a Smores in a glass. Brau Bros Moo Joos Smores is tasty but this may be even better. I could drink loads of this for dessert. Possibly the best beer brewed in Lincoln.
