Can pour from Beer and Wine Nation, Merrimack. It's an opaque black with no sparkle, finger-width beige head with good retention and nice webs of lacing. Aroma is strong peanut butter over chocolate. Taste is unsweetened peanuts, milk chocolate and roasted malt. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and dry finish as taste. Overall, better peanut butter taste than most.

4 oz. draft. Aroma is salt and dirty feet. Flavor has a tad of orange and a faint sour finish. Cranberry or peach doesn’t really stand out. But there is a little bit of salt.

Buttery pie crust, blackberry nose. Hazy rust, thin head. Buttery blackberry. Light to medium body, easy carbonation. I'm not really sure what the brewery is trying to achieve here. It's not really for me.

4 oz. draft. Flavor is classic DIPA. Grapefruit, apricot, and ends on moderate pine and danky hops. Malt is bold but does support the bold classic hop profile. Some pleasing lingering hop bite. 9% is mostly hidden.

4 oz. draft. Aroma and flavor are what you come to expect. Flavor starts with soft milk chocolate and has a hint of nut in the center. Coconut combines with chocolate in the finish. Pretty nice!

Can from Greg and Jane's Pour a viscous purple color with an off white head that slowly recedes. Fruit smoothie aroma and flavor with hints of earth and tart to counter. Is this an IPA or a kettle sour, I'm confused? Decent tasting though.
