Roast and caramel. Some candied plum, caramel. Black pour with ok head. Bourbon is light and we'll integrated. Almost tastes like a Belgian dark more than a stout. Even has florals. Sweet finish. Tap at brewery.

Lime and some grapefruit. Nice, easy drinking West Coast IPA. Not super hoppy but enough to give you a sense of some of the bigger beers in this vein. All around pleasant. Good malt body. Bitter end with some lemon hop tang. Would drink by the pitcher. Tap at brewery.

Nice German style lager. Not entirely sure it should be a vienna but that's what they call it. Golden pour with ok head. Crisp malt flavours, some hops. Decent balance. Easy drinking. Tap at brewery.

Roast and some dark chocolate. Very even and nicely done. Black pour with great carpet of head, great lacing. Soft carbonation similar to a Guinness in texture. Creamy consistency. Note of nut and coffee in the finish, which is bitter with a little caramel. Tap at brewery.

On draft at the brewery. Pours a hazy copper with an ecru head. Aromas of tropical fruits. Flavors are moderately bitter (maybe their posted ibu is off). Only a touch of booziness. Lingering bitterness in the finish.
