Have always loved porters and stouts. In recent years I have grown to really enjoy European and American lagers.

16 oz can. In a trade with craftyhalfpint. Thanks Linda & Scott. Served in the proper vessel. Aroma shows wheat and mild grain. Flavor is soft and balanced. Mild clove, very light banana with a decent wheat backbone. Yeast phenolics are not overstated. Simple, straightforward, and easy to drink.

16 oz can. In a trade with craftyhalfpint. Thanks Linda & Scott. Aroma shows me soft tropical fruits, thick bready malt. Flavor has a good amount of mango and pineapple-ish notes. Bold malt but doesn’t get cloying. Nice balance. Alcohol is hidden. Pretty nice brew.

16 oz can. In a trade with craftyhalfpint. Thanks Linda. Aroma shows me bold herb on top of soft grapefruit. For the flavor is has a soft bready malt backbone with light mango / grapefruit mixture. The herb notes are strong throughout. Soft danky bitterness. Good.

16 oz can. Aroma of coconut, mild roast with a steady amount of bourbon.
Flavor follows with addition of coffee and oak. Molasses traces. Bourbon is not hidden. Yet, not overwhelming and it doesn’t slap you in the face. Slight warming after the sip. It is a nice stout!

16 ounce can. Aroma is huge, natural strawberry with a hint of lime. The flavor is natural strawberry throughout the sip with subtle lime, mild rum flavoring in the finish. Texture is thick yet smooth and does show a very mild tartness after the sip. For the Smoothie style it’s quite remarkable. It really resembles a cocktail. Quite delicious.
