16oz can. Pretty solid Dark Lager. Lots of malt depth. Smooth, on the fuller side of medium bodied. Sweet, but balanced. Good stuff.

Draught @ Grayslake taproom, Grayslake IL. Extremely hazy bright lemon yellow with a small foamy off-white head, mango-citrus aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter citrus peel-mango taste, smooth body, long finish. Solid NEIPA.

16oz can. Notes of corn in the flavor and aroma. Medium bodied, easy drinking. Middle of the road, inoffensive, OK.

I believe I had this at GTMW 2023. Peach is not overbearing, well carbonated and pretty light all around. --- Beer merged from original tick of Savannah Peach on 26 Dec 2024 at 11:35 - Score: 5

16oz can. Vanilla touched amber maltish aroma. Decent malt depth, pleasant flavors. A little touch of aspirin or something I can't describe just right. OK.

16oz can. Sort of straddles the line between old school APA and new. Pleasant enough malt tone, but the balance isn't quite there. Comes off a little lacking, no real bite or balance. Not enough hop tone to make it interesting there. Sessionable, OK enough.

16oz can. Unique malt tone, really flavored a lot like a Nut Brown, the way I wish they were at least. Perhaps it's the Fuggles? I dont know. Either way this is nice and malty, misses the mark but enjoyable nonetheless.

16oz can. Works for what it is. Pistachio flavoring dominates. What seems to be a classic Cream Ale underneath. I wouldn't want to drink beer that is made with flavoring extracts and such but this tastes OK if you are OK with that kind of stuff.

16oz can. The adjuncts are all actually sort of mild. Still has some nice roast, classical Russian Imperial Stout notes. More drinkable than most of its peers.
