Smooth Jamz

Very smooth but overly burnt and I haven’t gotten the hint of “jam” yet. I think Im done with this brand.

Mortal Bloom

I hate they call this a hazy ipa. Because it’s not that hazy. The aroma is very nice. Crisp and dry on the lighter side, but I welcome that. Bees wax, honey and floral hops. Finishes with a touch of citrus. It’s actually pretty enjoyable

All Day Grapefruit

Smells like grape fruit. Very light and easy to drink more grapefruit and less hops. I can see this being the kind of everyday beer in my fridge.

All Day Chill Day

Slight hop profile. Very light. Small body. Kinda bland. But is probably a good bbq beer. It’s ok.

All Night IPA

One of my favorite styles but always usually In the 7% range. Some hops, finished by a oatmeal like finish and some roasted malts. My favorite style but nice and light and no compromised flavor. Make this in 6 packs please.

French Toast Bastard

The backwood bastard is one of my favorite beers. How would this fair. Very boozy and a bit of heat (maybe the cinnamon). Lots of maple. Not getting vanilla. This would be a great early drinking beer in the cold. Like a tailgate beer. Does taste like FT.

Ultimate Oktoberfest

Ultimate or extreme? I mean Who really needs a 10% barrel aged Oktoberfest. I mean it’s fine with some smooth vanilla and bourbon qualities. But Just completely unnecessary.

Scarlet Dawn IPA

Lots of caramel and bitter pine hops. I’d have to have it side by side, but I think it’s very similar to celebration ale. I like it.

All Day Haze

Not bad. Better than the all day vaca. Nice west coast citrus hopes. Thin and easy to drink. Slight aftertaste. Could be a good easy going summer lawnmower beer.

Más Agave Prickly Pear

Way to sweet for me. Reminds me of a combo of Tusin and Hawaiian Punch. Not sure I taste pear at all. Not for me. Drain pour.

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge

Very sweet. Lots of chocolate, maple, coffee is subtle. Dry finish a little boozy. Some oak flavors as well. Very complex. Really well done. But wouldn’t want more than one bottle.
