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

4 oz draft. It is indeed brown in color. Aroma, soft coffee with very subtle nuttiness. Flavor follows in a subtle light character. Mild bitterness in the form of coffee. Thinner body and texture.

6 oz draft at the brewery. Aroma is dry roasted meat with hints of coffee. Good roasted malt backbone with the typical chocolate, soft blackberry notes. Body is very good for the gravity. Three steps above Guinness.

6 oz draft at the brewery. Murky purple in color. Aroma is soft natural blueberry and light malted wheat. Flavor follows. A simple and straightforward fruit beer.

6 oz draft at the brewery. Aroma of mango and mild pineapple-ish hints. Flavor follows with the addition of some melon. Balanced by a mellow citrus rind bitterness. Nice!

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma is bursting with white grape, passionfruit-ish hints and mild straw. Flavor follows with a ridiculous amount of juice in the texture. Super smooth mouthfeel with ABV not really found here at all. DAMN! This is spectacular!

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma is mild cocoa, vanilla, and very mild Praline. The power of suggestion hits me again. Because the praline is definitely noticeable in the flavor. Good amount of soft, cocoa, and vanilla. Respectable body and texture for the gravity. I finished the can REALLY easy.
