Liked this way better than I expected. Aromatic grapefruit right off the bat. Grapefruit component carries over into the taste without being "too grapefruity".

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa (2022) Czarnecki
Late check-in from National Cinnamon Day 11/01/23. Not my favorite of the KBS's, but I'd never complain about any of them. Yum.

Snowbound Vanilla Porter Czarnecki
Like this a lot! Lots of vanilla without getting sweet and plenty of roastiness.

Founders Oktoberfest (2023) Czarnecki
Favorite of the 3 on this National Drink Beer Day. Tastes the most "Oktoberfesty" and clean to me. Perhaps it's the German ingredients/Reinheitsgebot they followed.

Mothership Installment #26 - Barrel-Aged Marvelroast Czarnecki
Not my fav, but it's good, unique, and interesting for sure. A barrel-aged strong ale. Coffee, boozy, vanilla oak. Little too sweet for me.

Citrusy, lemony, refreshing. Interesting style to be at 8%, definitely will creep up on you if you're pounding them.

KBS Maple Fudge 2021 Czarnecki
Great, but feel like it's lacking something that was in the first batch I had in 2020. I have a 2022 bottle in the cellar now, hoping that one will be more what I remembered.

Más Agave Premium Hard Seltzer Watermelon Czarnecki
Oops. I read Más Agave and ordered it not questioning why the ABV was 4.7% and not reading the 2nd line saying seltzer. My bad.

Not overly carbonated. Refreshing.

Thought I'd crack open a Michigan-based brewery's beer for National Detroit-Style Pizza Day. This one cellared for 8 years! Definitely some sediment, but taste is excellent. Never had this before, but can't imagine there was any drop off in flavor.

So I felt strongly that this is the unbarreled-aged (is that a word?) version of KBS after drinking KBS first so I tried to do some research. Turns out I'm partially right but they do do other stuff supposedly. I think it's a conspiracy. W/e it's good.

Founders Tap Takeover at 2 Pints...solid imperial hazy. Boozier than the standard hazy for sure. A little sweet I could do without.

Wasn't the biggest fan on the initial sips, but it grew on me. Seemed to sweet while cold, but once warmed up, was more flavorful. Went from last to second/close 1st by the end of 3 Michigan Oktoberfest brews.

Centennial IPA (2019) Czarnecki
Canned 10-15-19. For being severely expired, this ain't bad! Malty and hoppy not too bitter.

2nd try at this one. Still unimpressed. Has the strength and booziness, but the flavor does not hold up against other imperial ipas.

Not bad liked it better than I thought I would. Very drinkable. Comparing this wheat pale to my recently drank Alter Bleacher Seat and 3 Floyds Gumballhead, I put this in the middle. Just not as much flavor as Bleacher Seat, but easily beats 3F.

It's good, but liked this the least in the Yard House IPA Madness bracket challenge. Just too light for me.

Kinda expected this to be the imperial of imperials after reading the description, but it's just average. Guessing when you blend good things, nothing has a chance to shine.

It's nothing I'd go out of my way for, but certainly a good price point for an everyday hazy ipa. Would recommend for a cheap hazy.

It alright. Thin and sweet. Not my favorite for stouts, but it's still stouty so yay.

Always a good one when I wanna slam an IPA. Plenty of flavor for a session beer
