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

16 oz can traded by Clarkvv, thanks! Aroma is guava, pineapple, white bread. Flavor is popping with tropical fruits. Pineapple, guava, mango, with a soft malt backing. Bold juicy texture with zero bitterness. ABV is totally hidden. A classic New England juice bomb!

16 oz. Can. A near clear mahogany brown color. Aroma is maple, Scotch and specialty grain. Flavor follows with a steady amount of maple without it getting overly sweet. A nice first impression of this brewery.

500 ml from the brewery. Batch #2 bottled 04/ 2024. Aroma is toffee, mild maple, brown sugar, and a very mild bourbon. Holy hell. The malt is layered. Toffee, raisins, brown sugar hints and a very soft lingering bourbon. Absolutely no alcohol burn at 14.7% ABV. Absolutely wonderful! 🏆

16 oz can shared by tfontana, thank you Tom. Aroma is strangely floral. The most strange rendition of Citra I’ve ever had in my life. The base is Galaxy so the floral and mild herb does make sense.

16 oz. Can. Aroma is exclusively pistachio nut. Now as a whole, I love this brewery. But this is a complete swing and a miss. What the hell are they thinking here? Soft serve ice cream? Really? Really? The flavor is lactic acid, pistachio and sour raspberry. The most bizarre and unappealing thing I have ever had from spyglass.
