Appearance: rugged amber/mahogany color with a two finger semi-rocky foamy to subtle bubbly head
Aroma: nutty, malty, toasty, subtle twang (not sure where that's coming from)
Flavor: mostly sweet through prior noted aromas, subtle nutty/malty twang aftertaste
Texture: light to medium bodied, fairly sessionable, that weird 'twang' though, hmmmm....well, it's not too distracting, quick nutty finish
Overall: part of me things the 'twang' character may have been intentional as older red ales have had this brewed into them and OEC is recreating to reminisce perhaps but then again I could be wrong. I believe I could come back to this, maybe with some food.
Appearance: dark amber to brown color with a thin white foamy head, sly lacing
Aroma: nutty, malty, toasty, some coffee
Flavor: takes the previously mentioned aromas to wrap up sweetly and roasty, subtle nutty aftertaste
Texture: light to medium bodied, smooth along my tongue, nutty finish
Overall: gets the trick done as an English brown ale, I'd bang again.

Appearance: murky/hazy orange color with a two finger white foamy head, slowly dissipates, left subtle lace
Aroma: juicy citrusy hops, some bitterness in the hops, clean malts
Flavor: bittersweet juiciness throttling the clean malts further down into the beer, subtle juicy hop aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, clean juicy finish
Overall: worthy NEIPA of banging again
Appearance: dark brown color with a thin off white foamy head which quickly dissipated, not much lace
Aroma: peanut butter & grape jelly, subtle tones of brown ale underneath
Flavor: sweet through the blend of the peanut butter and grape jelly, quick aftertaste of the peanut butter & jelly blend
Texture: light to medium bodied, subtle finish of the peanut butter & jelly blend
Overall: I'd say the brewer did exactly what it was going for and I would return to this.
Appearance: hazy/murky orange colored in the glass, two finger-ed head slowly dissipated to barely leave any lace
Aroma: gentle grassy and citrusy hoppiness
Flavor: bittersweet fluffy hoppy creaminess, fluffy sweet aftertaste of smooth hops
Texture: medium bodied with a great level of smooth creaminess; moderate finish of creamy hops
Overall: a nicely done NE styled IPA more than worthy of coming back to.
Appearance: quickly dissipating tan foamy head, barely any lace
Aroma: loved the way the coffee beans meshed with the oatmeal and gave off a lil' bit of cocoa flakes
Flavor: semi-sweet coffee with semi-sweet cocoa flakes and smooth semi-roasty coffee, super smooth aftertaste of coffee to cocoa
Texture: medium bodied with a superb smoothness with just enough bitterness to edge out the sweetness that could have overtaken the beer
Overall: an absolutely awesome breakfast stout, more than worthy of returning to.
Appearance: jet black color in the glass, super thin off-white foamy head
Aroma: mostly coffee beans, subtle vanilla sweetness, some cacao sweetness
Flavor: semi-sweet, great roastiness, smooth sweet cacao, some cofee-ish/vanilla aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, ample smoothness, great smooth roasty coffee/vanilla finish
Overall: I'd say a nicely done imperial stout well worthy of returning to.
