Keg at the brewpub, 8/19/16. Clear amber, thin fizzy tan head, poor retention. Aroma of toasted caramel malt, mild grain, cod. Oh wait, that’s not really cod. The guy next to me was just served some fish! The taste is toasted caramel malt and a mildly tart fruity finish. Thin-medium bodied. 300th amber ale!

Tap at Sidedoor. Really big apricot tones. If you told me this was an apricot beer I wouldn’t bat an eye. Really solid WI session IPA. Juicy, almost suspect. I had the beer in the bottles and it wasn’t the same. Assuming it wasn’t tainted, the tap version I had was quite superior. I’d give the bottle a 2.7-2.8,

Filtered amber-brown body. Thin off-white beige head. Pronounced coffee tones. Really clean for the ABV. Smooth brown malts. Above average offering from St. Francis.

12oz bottle. Filtered copper-brown body. Thin, fading off-white head. Big and malty, not much respectable hop balance. Fruity ale yeast jumps out at you sort of like a more English Barleywine I suppose, with none of the finesse. If you told me this was a Wee Heavy I’d probably like it better. Pretty bland, sub-par offering.

Tap at St. Francis. Slightly hazy light yellow-orange body. Creamy, thick white head. The watermelon isn’t dominant, and actually complements the banana-clove wheat tones very well. Definitely still a wheat beer as opposed to an all out watermelon fruit beer. Medium bodied, sessionable, but not a lot of depth. Low quality feel. OK. Distant watermelon. Rerate from 2018..Filtered pink body. No head. Artificial candy watermelon tones. Drinkable, in a soda pop way. Really misses it, clearly inferior to the version of years past. 6-2-5-2-11
