Solid pint, with notes of caramel, roasted nuts, apple, and a touch of clove, with vanilla and a floral grassiness chilling in the background. Nice pint.

On the sweeter side for the style, with a vanilla-and-honey-tinged middle offset by a gentle floral bitterness and a touch of yeast and citrus. Not bad.

"German Porter" sounds like a marketing term to dumb down a classic German style for our unsophisticated American palates, but damned if it isn't a delicious beer regardless. Strong notes of mocha and bittersweet chocolate are backed up by hints of pumpernickel bread, toasted nuts, berry, and caramel, finished off by a firm roasted bitterness on the back end. Great pint.

Standard blonde ale, crisp and grain with a touch of pale malt sweetness and a slight fruity note on the finish. Eh.

Bright citrus hops, tangerine and grapefruit zest and a hint of lime, tinged with peach and berry notes. Finishes crisp but with somewhat lax carbonation. Still a good pint.
