Pour is a thick black with a large tan head. Aroma is Hershey's chocolate syrup. Flavor is a thin roasted dry but sweet malt. Some coffee bitterness without the coffee flavor. Finish is again dry but leaves a bit of chocolate sweetness on the tongue. Thin moutfeel but there is enough here to like. The aroma was better then the flavor.

Pour is a hazy amber with a large white head. Aroma is caramel malt and a little Tootsie roll sweetness. Flavor is a nice earthy grainy malt with minimal sweetness and a nice chewy malt. Pretty good ESB.

Pour is a real hazy gold with a large white head. Aroma is crisp malts and some noble hop. Flavor is more chalky dry malt with a herbal hops finish. Nice pils with equal parts dry malt and herbal hops.

Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is a neutral grain malt and that's about it. Flavor is a clean malt with a little corny sweetness on the back end. It's crispy, that's for sure.

Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is a bready malt and some hops. Flavor is a super spicy hop with the malt there just to give this some backbone. I really like the hops used with this. Very tasty.

Pour is hazy with a small white head. Aroma is kind of a generic hop. Flavor is way sweet with some more kind of generic hop. This was just a so-so hazy. Hoppy? Sure but nothing really stands out.

Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is some slight roast and some slight smoke. Flavor is a bit more of the smoke. A little meaty which is fine with me. Not a bacon bomb like some others. A subtle charred malt is left on the tongue. This was a fine slightly smoked beer.
