Dry Dock Apricot Blonde 5.1% Thanks Nie! It is an orange honey gold pour with an apricot & cream aroma, possibly also peach blossoms. Fairly light bodied with a seltzer type carbonation. After the aroma the dry crackery flavor blessed with just hints of apricots leaves you kind of let down it lacked the juicy apricot you expected from the nose. A nice drink though with honeyed biscuit & tangy apricot.

Bomber from Libations, 11.26.15. 2015 bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a brown head. Not much lacing at all. Aroma of bourbon and coffee mostly. Flavor is much the same with the bouncing lingering after the coffee dissipates. Lighter bodied than you might expect in this style with a soft carbonation, smooth feel, and a somewhat got close. Pretty tasty stuff. Might round out a bit with some age. Happy Thanksgiving!

Can from Whole Foods Wine and Liquor in Boulder, 11/26/15. Pours a hazy orange color with a thin head and light lace. Fairly resiny hop aroma. Pine as well. The malts are more subtle, and kind of biscuit and toast in nature. Clean and easy drinking. Medium bodied. Nice, dry close to it. Tasty IPA.

Snifter at the brewery - dark purple - lively carbonation - nose of plum, raisin, toffee, and treacle - quite sweet in aroma - the flavor is similar - kind of sugary - the yeast is at least fairly expressive on the back end, with strong spice, pepper, cobweb - however, the front end sticky toffee sweetness is hard to get past - needs some drying out so the yeast can bring more complexity and it won’t be as cloying.

Tap at Falling Rock as Double IPA. Gold color. Good dry pine aroma. There is sweetness, being a double ipa, but the hops are more prominent and very drying with bitter citrus.

Bottle thanks to Bruce. It pours cloudy deep brown with a decent beige head. The nose is sweet, candy, caramel, big toffee vibe, earth, cocoa, vanilla, fudge and coffee cake. The taste is sweet, slick, toasty brown sugar, booze, vanilla, big toffee action, nougat, wood, fudge, chewy malt and some warming finish. Medium - full body and moderate carbonation. Sweet, yes, but very enjoyable nonetheless. Nice one.
