one51 Profile - Brewver

7% variation from a can that came in a variety pack, drink in VA Beach. Golden, mostly clear, cream colored head. Piney caramel nose. Flavor is fruity, citrus and mild raspberry-ish notes, a wee bit sour perhaps. Quite big bitterness level that's rather smooth, mostly dry, nice finish. Nice.

Can from a multi pack. Lightly hazy amber, decent head. Citrus nose, flavor is pretty full bodied for a session but still dry, nice pine notes with hints of caramel. Really nice session beer.

Can at Quarles Fest after figuring out our cousin has COVID. Clean and mild grainy flavor, decent light bodied summer beer. Not too exciting but decent earthy hop notes.

Bottle at Quarles Fest 2025 at Beth's in Chesapeake. Expired in Feb, can't find the year. Tastes like a malty pumpkin soda with artificial flavoring, that's about all I can describe about it. Not really my cup of pumpkin beer.

Drunk in VA beach reading The Dark Forest. Hazy yellow, papaya and mango nose, huge fruit bomb. Flavor is full and fruity, tropical start and then peach aftertaste. Moderate to slim body but that keeps it crushable. Really a great profile and not too thick. Likey like!

Can bought in PA from a drive through beer store, drunk in the hotel in VA Beach. Dark yellow amber, decent lacy head. Malty dank citrus nose. Big West Coast flavor, although the bitterness is not too massive, it's a bit on the sweet side of balance. Not the smoothest bitter character but okay. Quite drinkable after a hot baseball game watching the Tides destroy the Stripers within one nine-run inning!

Can sampled at a Tides game, labeled for the Norfolk Tides. Pretty tasty lager, light mid-roast caramel maltiness. Mid hopped mid bodied goodness.
