Can to becher glass.
Appearance: amber color with some transparency about it and a one and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy and piney hops with a clean malt base
Flavor: seems to follow through from the aromas as it shows it's bittersweet mentality to how the beer tastes; finishes piney bitter and with some of the malts
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable; some smoothness with some dryness
Overall: it works as an APA, I believe I could return to this.

Bottle to nonic glass.
Appearance: golden yellow to almost orange color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: some orange peel and coriander with some lemony hops and a subtle sweet wheat malt backbone
Flavor: seems to blend the prior noted aromas fairly sweet as the coriander barely shows any sort of spice here; finishes through the wheaty sweetness with a touch of the orange peel
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness with a touch of citrusy peel bitterness assertiveness
Overall: nice enough APWA I think I could hang with again on a Summer's day.

Bottle to nonic glass.
Appearance: super dark brown in color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: dark chocolate notes, some coffee roastiness and light citrusy hop notes
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine roasty to bittersweet blend; finishes roasty and with the citrusy hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, leaning to slightly being a sipper; not so smooth as plenty of dryness and some roasty to citrusy hops both grind into the tongue - however, this one does not show as much "palate wrecking" capabilities as many other black IPA's do
Overall: though a bit weaker on the "palate wrecking" capabilities and a subtly lighter hue than many other black IPA's, this might be a decent grab if you're truly craving a black IPA in a pinch.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: black in the pour and black in the glass with a two finger tan foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: deep dark chocolate, milk chocolate, black coffee roast, sweet earthiness, some light woody notes and sweet wafer malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to roasty quality with a light bitter note from the dark chocolate underneath; finishes dark chocolatey and with the coffee roast
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; some smoothness but also a good dryness about it
Overall: pretty nicely done impy stout I believe I could come back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: orange haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace

Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet semi- juicy to sweet quality; finishes somewhat like peachy to mango-like hoppy character
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; good smoothness rolling over the tongue; low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: nicely done NEDIPA I could return to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark brown with a semi-violet or purple color along the sides of the glass, one and a half fingers of white foamy head slid off nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: blackberries - sweet and tart up front, animal cracker or graham cracker sweetness underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together sweetly with a touch of tart moving towards the back seat; subtle aftertaste of blackberries
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards the sipper side; semi-smooth along the tongue but also some tart clinging to the tongue - nothing overbearing; finishes with the blackberries and animal crackers/graham cracker type of sweetness
Overall: nicely done fruit beer I would come back to.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: transparent golden yellow color with a fluffy white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: a mix of mango/papaya/tangerine/blueberry and piney hop tones around some clean malts
Flavor: all aromas are blended bittersweetly to bring about a clean fruity aftertaste
Texture: light bodied, mostly sessionable; nicely flows along my tongue - some smoothness; finishes crisp and fruity
Overall: cold IPA or IPL, either way, I'd return to this.

Appearance: glossy burnt orange with some transparency and a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange zest, pineapples and peaches; subtle sweet grass, light clean malts
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas together bittersweetly with a nice clean aftertaste of orange zesty tones and peaches
Texture: medium bodied, seems to want to be sessionable but may be leaning towards actually being a sipper; nice smoothness along the tongue; finishes brisk with the orange zest and pineapples
Overall: nicely done DIPA I would have again.

Pour is a cloudy blond with a large white head. Aroma is super peppery. Flavor is also some white pepper with a decent bitterness. Finish is chalky and dry. This was a pretty good Belgian blonde. Way heavy on the spicy pepper if that's your thing.
