American Brown Ale 6.3%
Hope all the folks up in Kanto enjoy the American Craft Beer Experience but this is the closest I can do 😉
Deep brown color with root beer like tan foam that lingers. Soft chocolatey cocoa malt and sweet piney hop aroma. Quite full bodied with roasted cacao and c-hoppiness.
Honestly, this is excellent. Great example of the style.

Uchu Mantle
DDH West Coast IPA 7%
Nice gold color with rocky off-white foam and a big piney citrus hop bouquet. The taste is loads of pithy grapefruit while the finish has peppery pine twig notes. Tasty but I feel it isn’t all that balanced.

I was pretty busy today so am just getting around to having a Tuesday Taste now… I picked this up in Australia in the 3-5$ range I believe…
Zytho Brewing Velvet Luxe Stout 6%
Great looking inky black pour with a thick beige head of foam. Roasty dark chocolate savory aroma. I get a roast luxurious stout in the taste with a discount that matches the aroma. I do not get much of a velvety texture from the full bodied brew though I do get a certain raspy carbonation.
Solidly satisfying beer.

KBC Kunka Flower Saison 5.5%
An amber color with fast dissipating light beige foam. It has a honeyed malt and flowery rich saison aroma. The taste starts off matching it before the flowers start to come through… rose water perfumey notes. Interesting stuff.

Got this at the taproom yesterday and picked up some beef to go with it tonight.
Two Rabbits Best Beer for Beef 5%
Fruit Sour
This is apparently a collaboration with an Omi Beef restaurant and is a cassis and Sour cherry beer made to pair with beef and evoke red wine.
I’ve gotta say it’s a great looking deep purplish-red with pink foam (pic in the comments) and a cassis aroma. On its own, my first impression was one of sweetness but with the beef the tart berry really came through.
It paired really well with my meal but is it actually the best beer for beef? You’ll need to decide for yourself.

Baeren Filtered Session IPA 4.5%
Matte gold with wispy white foam and a zesty sweet tart aroma. Medium bodied and semi-dry. This comes off as quite sweet and tangy. Doesn’t feel as well integrated as the unfiltered.
