Open Air Easy IPA 6% Fantastically vibrant hop bouquet that was mouthwatering featuring prickly pear, woodsy pine and citrus. Lovely brass-gold color with dense creamy foam. Medium bodied and smooth with a surprisingly bitter flavor of resinous pine, wood and citrus with some slight hints of apricot. Great.

A smoked IPA with a dragon on the label? Close enough to be a Halloween beer for me considering the dearth of them this year… Open Air Dragon’s Breath Smoked IPA 6.5% Hazy gold with a juicy aroma and a hint of herbal smokiness. Medium bodied, the taste starts zesty citrus and juicy apricot haze then an interesting smokiness with herbal almost medicinal or floral quality to it. Well balanced and not what I expected, I thought it’d be more west coast plus heavy smoke but it’s juicy ipa with defy smoke interwoven with it.

Keg. Described as an Italian Pilsner with sansho added. Clear. Fresh nose of fruity hops, whit egrape, citrus, and some sansho. A bit of DMS comes in too as cabbage, but light. Fresh, fruity flavor. Not quite perfect, but it works very well.

I wish I was on a European vacation right now… Open Air European Vacation New European IPA 6% It’s a dull matte gold with a nice thick rocky dense topping of foam. It’s got a tangy sweet citrus aroma. Medium bodied and smooth with that same bright tangy fruity hop bouquet from the huell melon, mistral and tango hops.

Open Air Electric Forest Sansho Lager 5% Glowing orange gold with thin fizzy white foam which vanished fast. It’s got a bright slightly citrusy peppery Sansho aroma. Medium to light bodied and very dry. It has a crisp Sansho finish. Pretty tasty stuff.

Open Air Night Light Pastry Stout 6% This poured a murky brown black with e thick fast-disappearing rusty tan head of foam that left no lacing behind. A friend got peppery coffee notes which I guess was from the whiskey soaked wood chips. I got a fairly full smooth body with loads of roasty cacao notes that evoked coffee. Roasty and sweet but we’ll balanced. I got some vanilla in the aftertaste as well. Solid stuff.

Very floral. More hops than lager but it’s very nice and very easy drinking. Refreshing!
