Draft sampler at the 2023 Rocky Water Brew Fest. Opaque amber color with a small off-white head. Strong pumpkin spices aroma. Good amber ale flavor with some pumpkin spices added. Not a spice bomb. Good balance of flavors.

Lakeside Pilsner from Dees Brothers Brewery

Draft sampler at the 2023 Rocky Water Brew Fest. Tastes like a basic pilsner. Not very bitter, in spite of the 40 IBU. A little soapy finish. It's okay.

Less a fan of this one compared to the others, I think its the Northern Brewer hops. More herbal than citrus, but the citrus is there. Ordinary malt presence.

Brewtality from Dees Brothers Brewery

5.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 6
That's an old school west coast hop profile, esp that columbus and cascade nose, and I think the chinook is used here for bittering. More or less a copy of Rogue Shakespeare stout. I used to like that, but these days that bright c-hop mixed with the roasted malt just seems weird. Executed perfectly, but not one I'm going to like unfortunately.

7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 8
Darker and maltier than the ofest I had at Deviant Wolfe before coming here, I appreciate this a little more. And it has a dark earthy hopping to back up the malt. Mildly reminiscent of SN ofest.

7.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Suggested to compare to PU and it does. Nice mild spicy bitterness behind a clean crackery malt. It's a real pils alright. Hop aromas and flavors could come forward a little but it works.

Best beer in their lineup tonight. Maybe the best Hazy I've had. Really great bright and fresh citrus and floral hops. Nice malt presence supports it. In my notes I write that's a damn good IPA

Bite My Shiny Metal Ale from Dees Brothers Brewery

6.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Unremarkable pale ale, light citrus hops, slightly heavier than expected body, but 6% seems a higher ABV for a pale so there's that. Good.
