7oz pour at the brewery on a quiet afternoon. Dark cola, brown highlights, sticky head. Medium roast & gentle char nose. Cola & coffee milkshake. A little caramel. A little milk chocolate. Bittersweet but pretty mild on the tail. Tame & good.

Found myself with 45 minutes & way too close to Patton. Full pour on a lazy afternoon. Clear, classy gold, nicely frothy. Veggy & green strawberry nose. Citra, strawberry, some raw onion. Thin cracker, lemon, some salt. Bittersharp & a little sweet. High acid, obviously thin, very carbed. Kinda good, better if it wasn't as sweet. Maybe I don't hate these.

On tap @Diatribe. Matte, mellow brown on black pour with a weak cookie head. Sharp coffee & a little chocolate on a holiday spiced biscuit nose. Roasty, sharp, sweet biscuit, very figgy, slightly herbal bitterness but not all that sweet. Medium quaff, a touch & a half thick, medium high co2, lovely milky texture & stiff earthy bitterness on the tail. Best thing I tried here. Low balling the score so I don't look like a homer.

Clear, oily, medium gold, sticky head. Sharp & catty hop nose, some initial sweetness. Taste is mellow saltines initially, bitter crust, herbal & catty hops coming in stiffly then dies. Saline finish. Tis okay.

First beer on site, first RB rate. Clear, copper, extra foamy pour. Slick, buttery toast, marzipan, faint herbal hops, medium-light, strong forced carb, clean finish. Pedestrian but good.

Dark, dark brown, nearly black & opaque; sticky cookie batter head. Bittersweet, backend coffee. Medium roast, a little sugar, charred cereal & noticable dark chocolate. Finishes semi-dry. Good texture, medium carb, caked feel, light pith on the dead finish. Good+

Clear, pale straw, weak head. Obvious kettle sour but some lovely citra on the nose. Sweet n sour. Citra & lemon lime that sort of covers up the usual metallic kettle sour flavor. Thin, slightly sweet, medium low carb. Kinda okay.

Second beer @Diatribe. Opaque, dark brown on black pour, thick head. Charred, bittersweet nose. Extra roasty, husky, a bit charred, unsweet chocolate. Too heavy.

Clear, very dark & dull copper; skimmy head. Very obvious biscuit OG nose. Lightweight malt, faint tea, curious fruitiness, weak but appropriate old hops on the tail. Drinks really well. Cask is a bit fruitier but this is better.
