Description
Buffalo Bayou Brewing Co. was founded in 2011 by Rassul Zarinfar and Ryan Robertson as an effort to bring Houston the type of beer they both love to drink.
What began with a home-brewer's vision, sprouted to producing & self-distributing only draught in 2012 and all the way to 8,000 barrels produced in kegs, cans and bombers, state wide distribution and 74 total beers in 2018.

Bottle - Caramel sweetness and a nuttiness that rounds it out nicely. Cloudy amber with a rich beige head. Almost Pecan and caramel with a rich sweetness that follows through to the end. The smoke is very mild if there at all and I think that is that nutiness I get. Nice beer, matly and sweet but not enough smoke characteristics.

Location: 22 oz bottle from Central Market, 4/2/14
Aroma: The nose is Belgian yeast and spice, with some pine and citrus notes as well
Appearance: Pours a murky gold-orange color with a thick, frothy, white head and mid-heavy lace
Flavor: The taste is yeast and spice, some alcohol, not much citrus or hop juice noticeable
Palate: The body is medium-full, creamy and soft feel, a little heat, and a slightly off finish
Overall Impression: This one was only okay for me. The hops just don't come through enough for the style, and there's something slightly off on the finish as well.

Location: Draft at BRC, 4/1/14
Aroma: It has a Belgian yeast and apricot nose, with some spice and hop notes
Appearance: It pours a cloudy orange with a white head that leaves tons of lace
Flavor: The taste is medium sweet and medium bitter with lots of spice/yeast as well
Palate: It has a medium body, an awesomely soft-to-flat carbonation, and a great drinkabilty
Overall Impression: This one really grew on me. At first, nose-wise, I didn't love it. Flavor, pour, and feel wise I thought it was better. I can't even fully explain why, but I liked it.

Bomber from Secret Santa. Thanks! Pours dark brown with a thin tan head. Fair head retention. Aroma of ginger, other spices, mild roast. The taste is strong ginger, almost spicy, and mild roast, Medium bodied. Solid, but a little off-balance. Slight booze.
