Tap at St. Francis. Chunky thick unfiltered black, maybe a hint of brown. Massive deep tan/beige head. Odd spicy/peppery aroma. Medium to full bodied, some nice black/brown malt richness. Creamy unfiltered body. The spices aren’t overwhelming, but certainly add a unique touch. All spice and tangerine zest. Black pepper. Molasses. Unique, pretty tasty.

12oz bottle. Rich and doughy. Not really a straightforward Amber. Filtered orange-copper body. Foamy off-white head. Rich, sort of like a Bock. Rich malt tones, but the filtration keeps it mellow and easy on the palate. Pretty nice, one of the more enjoyable Gluttony offerings yet. OK, a touch sugary.

Tap at SF. Served in a snifter. Deep brown body, respectable beige head. Smooth chocolate aroma. Pretty solid example of the style, one of the better beers I’ve had from SF. Bready brown chocolate notes. A pinch of alcohol warmth, mellow lager tones. Really solid offering, not too thick, sticky, or heavy for the style. Surprisingly nails it.

Tap at St. Francis. At 6.7% this is sort of an Imperial Helles, or Hellerbock. Sweet, doughy, fresh, pretty respectable. Filtered yellow-tan body, big creamy white head. Right on!

12z bottle. Filtered orange-copper body. Foamy off-white head. Classic noble hop and sweet malt aroma, pretty true to style. Has some cheapish undercurrents, but its pretty decent for the style, captures the essence at least. Sweet lager tones. I got a free appetizer at the brewery for buying the sixpack, which made it a pretty sweet deal.

Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a slightly cloudy light orange. Super foamy. Half the glass is foam. Maybe a bad bottle? Aroma of clove, banana and bubblegum. Taste is light sweet and follows aroma. Light bodied with a slick texture. Fizzy carbonation and a decently long finish. Not bad. Would love to try this fresh though.

Tap at Jacs. Snifter pour. Brown-burgundy body. Massive, excessively poured head. Unimpressive muted brewhouse malt aroma. Sweet, one-dimensional. Brown sugar raisins, syrupy caramel. Wholly unimpressive, though not offensive. OK at best.

12oz bottle. Surprise gusher. Filtered orange-amber body. Thin, oily head. Amber chocolate farty aroma. Not flat out offensive, has some smooth malt tones, but just doesn’t come together too well..sort of amateurish. Tastes like a Michelob mixpack beer.

12oz bottle. Thin, steady enough off-white head. The aroma is sweet and odd vegetal, almost like a pumpkin beer...amber vanilla. Has some amber malt, chestnut brown tones going on. Not really a great Lager, but a decent enough micro Fest beer. A little fruity and biting. Not so bad, tolerable offering..betters as it warms.

12oz bottle. Hazy orange-tan body. Thin, oily head. Big and brutal, pretty shabby 1991 East Coast IPA. Has some underlying offness, maybe it’s just the extract, I don’t know...but this beer is not good. This is what 2 dollar 40s should taste like in 2013. Seriously, Minhas is gonna be jealous of this piece of crap, putrid, garbage tinged IPA. Waste of money for sure.
