Can from Chris M: pours slightly hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is slight coriander, citrus. This is a little older than it should be. Pretty bitter, wit characteristics are muted, not great.

Rosehip, coriander. Hazy golden, thin head. Rosehip, coriander, celery., clay. Light, watery.

Pint can thanks to hershiser2! 1/31/21. Brownish-red, slight haze, large tan head, good retention. Aroma of brown sugar, vanilla, pecan. Taste is caramel, brown sugar, vanilla, leafy notes, nuts. Medium bodied, low bitterness. Nice.

$5.85 bottle, WW. I probably shouldn't have this tonight, but I feel like I need it. Black pour, dusting of a head. Bourbon, roasted malt, chocolate, wood nose. Flavor is bourbon, dark chocolate, wood, cola. You can tell the booze is there, but it doesn't seem as high as it is. Tasty, but also slightly disappointing.

Bottle. A- Grains, straw, mild lemon. A- Yellow color, clear liquid, white head. T- Grains, mild lemon, subtle wheat. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly crisp finish. O- Not a bad pils. Enjoy the name. Wish it was a bit crisper and drier but all in all an easy drinker.

Pint can, WW. Hazy brown with a small beige head. Carmel, toasted nuts in the nose. Flavor is bitter toasted nuts, caramel (not sweet), green leaf, hint of chocolate malt, hand soap. Nothing here pie-like. Meh.

Can, Kroger @ Rio Hill. Golden, light haze, dusting of a white head. Corn, hint of fruit, almost effing pipe tobacco in that fruitiness. Flavor is grasses, corn. Lightly sweet, low carbonation makes this feel flat.

Very clear copper and bronze coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall, just off-white head that stays afloat nicely, but is small. Aroma of grain, light nuts, earth, flowers and a dash of light caramelised sugar and a good deal of yeast still in the mix. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and very malty flavours dominate with a very nutty and biscuity malt note with some apples and pear notes along with a dry assertive and pungent lager yeast note that is very bitter and deep astringency from metal notes near the end. Aftertaste shows the deeper malty, nutty and pungent yeast note with a grainy and yeastie/bready bite that shows a large astringency with some metal and light fruity note without much else. Overall, a very deep, super strong, nutty, herbal and especially yeastie beer with only a touch of caramlised sugars and fruit notes to balance things out, but the astringent and pungent side is way stronger than anything else here. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle, purchased from Total Wine in Total Wine in Alexandria (Little River Turnpike), Virginia on 12-September-2020 for US$2,49 sampled at my house here in Washington on 11-October-2020.

Clear golden and bright orange-tinted body with an ultra-dense, microfoamed head that's tan in colour and stays afloat for a very long time - nice! Aroma of soap, fresh-cut grass, flowers, yeast, light bread and a dash of pine coming through, but this smells like the yeast-forward (read 'Belgian IPA') that almost hit like a saison. Medium-bodied; Rich soapy and dry grassy hop flavours show at first with some more malt and very floral notes with a bit of coriander seed and slightly soapy bite with some noticeable alcohol (not much though), but a lot of dry, grainy, floral, grassy and especially yeast notes that are nice and soft, especially for a beer greater than 8 per cent alcohol. Aftertaste is crisp, very clean, grassy and herbal, but some very light yeast and hop bitterness comes through with an elegant and complex non-hop profile that adds to the enjoyment of this one. Overall, a very nice dry 'Belgian' IPA that is more of a saison or a hoppy Belgian Tripel than any IPA off-shoot, in a good way. Great to sample fresh, great for those who love 'Flying Dog Raging Bitch', also available locally. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Costco here in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia on 12-September-2020 for US$2,70 sampled at my house here in Washington on 14-September-2020, just two days later.
