Earthly, crisp tartness, cranberry is evident, hints of raspberry. Clean, refreshing mouth feel, solid carb. Watery finish, low bitterness, strong tart cranberry finish. Clear and crisp fruit beer. Not overly complex, but pleasant.

Dark, clear copper pour, with a small white head. Strong malty aroma, lots of cereals, with some heavy resinous pine. heavy mouth feel, very soft carb. The finish is again super malty, with some thick, chewy bready cereals, with a more grassy hop. This is very much a hoppy English style barley wine. Could even be mistaken for an english strong. A good beer but not a double ipa.

Clear copper pour, small white head. Piney hop aroma, sweet grains, pretty underwhelming aroma. Solid mouth feel and carb. The finish is sweet, hops fade to a slight pine resin, with some musty apples.

Can from the brewery. Pours a murky dark brown with a large beige head. Aroma is sharp brown sugar, and pine resin with some caramels, and green hop cones. This is so weird for the senses. They really blended the bready, caramel notes of a dubbel so well with the green, piney IPA notes. Both are distinct, but they blend surprisingly well together. Medium to high bitterness, slightly astringent near the end. Very interesting.

Hazy golden pour, big, frothy white head. Very yeasty aroma, lots of tropical fruit, some alcohol too. Very lively carb, very full mouth feel. Finish is lightly bittter with a subtle sweetness. More tropical fruit, lots of yeast and bready cereals. A well rounded example of the style.

Hazy copper, sticky beige head. Caramel malts, and very earthy, grassy hops. The malts are sweet and biscuity, with light notes of pine. The booze comes through a bit in the end. Finish is quite bitter, and floral. Light lemon zest, and oranges. Interesting hop.

Cask days 2011. Great looking beer, jet black, mocha head. Super dark roasted malts, light wood, vanilla, and light bourbon. As the beer warms it gets quite boozier. Sweet roasted malt finish, slightly boozy, some lingering espresso. Nice stuff, but a little rough around the edges.

Hazy copper, small beige head. Light pine resins, spice and cereal grains. Light to medium bitterness, light spicy finish with solid slightly sweet malts. The hops are quite muted and faint, a little resins, mostly earthy spices.

Ive figured out what type of hop it is! Its the boring hop. Very little aroma, very very light citrus, and thats about it. Sweet flavor, and a very bitter finish. There really wasnt much to this other than a touch of citrus followed by some bitterness.
