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

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.

5 oz. draft at the brewery on St. Patrick's Day. Pitch black color with a beige head and good retention. Nice charred malt aroma. Good, sweet stout with the lactose balancing the dark malts. Not bitter. Medium body. Creamy mouthfeel. Low carbonation. The 6.7% ABV is very well hidden. Good.

5 oz. draft at the brewery on St. Patrick's Day. Clear, super dark mahogany color with no head or lacing. No discernable aroma. The flavor is all dark malt. Not a lot of porter characteristics here other than the color. It's a good dark lager, but not much of a porter, IMHO. Medium body. Low carbonation. Low bitterness.

5 oz. draft at the brewery on St. Patrick's Day. Crystal clear dark mahogany color with a beige head and good retention. Excellent lacing. Very light nutty aroma. The taste is nuttier than the aroma. Good, classic nutty brown ale flavor. Smooth and clean. Medium-light carbonation. Light bitterness. Good example of the style.

5 oz. draft at the brewery on St. Patrick's Day. Clear gold color with a small white head. Spotty lacing. Almost no aroma. Tastes like a standard pale lager. Generic, but enjoyable. Smooth and clean. Light body. Light carbonation. Not bitter. Easy drinking.

Weird indistinct melange of fruit-cake fruit, plus some dark alefruit as well. Sweet to semi-sweet, feels a little under-hopped, could use a balance in the finish. Almost vinous character. Low carbonation, feels like a cask ale.

Interesting blackberry nose and flavors. Mild tartness. A little green/nightshade type flavor. Light bodied, semi-dry, with blueberries showing up in the finish. Hazy pale purple color. Pretty nice beer.

They don't label this a session IPA and maybe at 5.5% it doesn't quite reach that mark, maybe a brut IPA? Pale gold color, noticeably lighter in color and body compared to their Doe Lake which they called a West Coaster. Mild floral and citrus hop nose, low to medium bitterness. Very dry.

Bright citrus nose. Clear amber color. Flavors tend toward indistinct tropical fruit over citrus. Pretty balanced overall profile with a medium level of bitterness. A good standard IPA. Solid.
