A pounder can for 3$. Initial taste is a higher hopped pils with pilsner bite but its trying to be more bitter than an old country pilsner. Seems like its trying to be an IPA. Yes, think maybe like an IPL, an india pale lager. When I first hit the can, its was initially quite bitter but now its laying off a little. But hey, maybe I'm confused, its not as sharp in the bitter pils realm as compared to many domestic rude pils and it seems to be a little more civilized than an IPA, like a pale ale er sumthin. I've tasted a few of these dago pils and this is more bitter personality than most. BTW, I am a dago, so I can say that. Its not an ethnic slur. There, you have it.

Pounder can for 3$ at chalet. Unlike its name, its not colored pink, just regular ever so slight haze on pale like many other west coast bombs. Big white head fades quickly to pond scum. Tropical fruit IPA hop perfume for an aroma. Supposedly the ladies tamed the bitterness of this brew but its not less bitter than any of the other rajahs. Yep, think terribly on style IPA, and you know where I'm coming from. Minging manky rank grim. Munter scrubber toe rag git. Nothing spared here in the bastardly logrolling rototilling attitude. But hey, its not causing a gag reflex, like many other viscous mouth coating IPA I've sampled, LoL. You like IPA? You need to add this to you bucket list, I don't think it will disappoint. I was hoping for some fruit tartness in this, but oh well, there - you have it. Jest another IPA of the gahzillion out there, which practically all taste the same. Whatever. Says the ticking whore: Its a brewver tick!

Pounder can for 3$ at chalet. Pop the lid and sweet pumpkin spices fill the room. Fairly clear light amber with a nice foamy white head that goes kraggy. First taste is certainly pumpkin and its associated pie spices but its not boozy and fairly civilized in the pumpkin spices arena. To say its 'light' - as in the description - may be a misnomer, it is still quite bold for an autumn brew. Going down fairly easy and in the middle perhaps its getting a tad sweeter on the palate. Decent carbonation level makes it more acceptable in the session. Spices begin to rise as well near the finish. Drinkable compared to many domestic pumpkin overly spiced bombs. On par with Whole Hog Pumpkin, Ithaca Country Pumpkin, Shock Top Pumpkin and Sammy Adams 20 Pounds.

Can 3$ from giant eagle, the large bird of prey in calcutta. Pour is clear hay colored pale. Nice white head goes craggy after a while. Friendly fresh clean lager nose with just a tad of cream corn, not bad. First taste is just a little more personality than I'm used to in a macro pale lager. Seems to have just a little more bitter hops and I don't think they're noble. Goes down fairly easy and its quite well behaved. That slight hop bitterness builds toward the middle and even gets a tad sharp. Session ending is not bad, that hop bitterness does not last, it fades rapidly after the finish. Pretty good co2 throughout.

From a pounder can for 3$. Hazy pale with a white head that fades. Nose is certainly jalapeno peppers, the kind from a jar. Medium strong IPA feel with heat as an afterburner. In the middle, I think the pepper has tamed this back from its IPA intent, its more like a stronger APA than an IPA. Yea, I really don't care for IPA but I find this almost tolerable. I do like brews with heat in them ans this is a good example. I bought this mostly for a tick and I'm finding it better than expected. Medium hoppy finish and heat lingers nicely! Not bad for an IPA pepper beer.

Pounder can from chalet for $3. Serious big black pour with a choco moose tan head. Head goes craggy and remains. Nose is strong coffee, even on the head. Initial impression is a fairly flat coffee with a warming sensation. Yes cool strong somewhat burnt black coffee. Think the coffee you get as the last drop from a pot that has been sitting on the burner all day. Big bad ass flavor that cannot be mistaken for anything else. Reminds me a little of that whisky coffee my grampa used to drink when he was watching studio wrestling after dinner on his black and white TV. Beer? I really don't get any beer in this, its simply overwhelmingly unbalanced coffee in yer face. Long bitter finish There, you have it. Its way to much for me.
