Can sample at a tasting at Alexey & Raphaela’s place. Thanks Alexey & Raphaela. Cloudy yellow with a big white head. Aroma of some raspberries and some citric hops. Flavor is slightly tart, bitterish, with some raspberries, and bitter citric hops. Medium-bodied. Doesn’t work that well, but still OK.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Trader Joe’s. Aroma is faint herbs and citrus, cracker/bread. Appearance is hazy pale yellow with decent sparkle, finger-width white head with poor retention and trace lacing. Taste is citrus with light cracker malt backbone. Palate is medium bodied with foamy carbonated texture, dry finish. Overall, this isn’t much of anything. Pretty weak all around. If you had a friend who swore they hated IPA’s, give them this--there’s no way they could be offended.

Cask at Cask and Vine yesterday. Huge peanut butter aroma and flavor with a light chocolate maltiness to back it up. Light sugary sweetness in the flavor and a huge creamy velvety soft mouthfeel that I attribute to the fluff. Great beer.

Orange with a little bit of pink color. I don’t really get any raspberry on the sniff test. Just a it of pine and oranges. Well, it’s kind of an IPA and kind of a fruit beer. Raspberry is not even that detectable. It’s just like a sweet citrus beer.

On tap at Hughies. Pours a hazy yellow gold with medium frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is yeast and lemon zest. Medium mouth, wheat, lemon, clove, light finish, ok.

Can at home. Very pretty can of beer. Hazy light reddish orange beer with two finger head. Nose is hoppy and some berry fruitiness. Tastes of citrus hops, some barnyard, malt, very light raspberry but at least tastes really and not shitty syrup. Anyways nice carbonation and zippy palate. Fine enough, I’ve been pretty against the fruited IPA craze but perhaps I’m softening on that stance.

Pours a black from a can. Chocolate and molasses notes in the nose and mouth, big round mouthfeel, not thin at all. Nice sweetness balanced by a bitter finish, not overly sweet. Good beer.

Pours a nice amber from a can. Very nice grapefruity aroma and flavor, very good and well-balanced, not terribly boozy, but I did just mistype a whole bunch of words. Very good beer.

Pours a black from a can, off-white head with some lacing. Aroma of coffee and well-roasted peanuts. Flavor is a bitter peanut butter wandering behind some sweet cola. Okay beer.
