Lawrence K

All Day West Coast K

Easy drankin’ west coast lite.

Highball Drifter (2022) K

Similar to 2021 edition: vanilla upfront, fleeting coconut, orangey citrus finish, all wrapped in boozy bourbon.

Velvet Rush K

Frangelico ale

Oak-Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout (2017) K

5+ years is too long. Lots of goodness held up: sweet vanilla, mellow woody oak, some cinnamon appears now. As I have found with other aged dark beers, a soy sauce umami is an unpleasant distraction.

Sweet Repute K

I like all the elements of this but it’s too sweet. The name is a fair warning I suppose.

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS - FOUNDERS 25TH ANNIVERSARY BEER K

Blushing Padre K

Raspberry robitussin still not my thing.

Grapefruit Radler K

Punkin Ale (2022) K

Pumpkin spice seems to have been amped up compared to earlier years.

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter K

July 2021 - Aged well

KBS Hazelnut K

KBS Espresso (2021) K

Toast to Serena. I saw her and Venus win their first US Open Doubles. If only there was a KBS 1999.

Velvet Rush (2021) K

Just under a year of aging. Got impatient. Sweet bourbon java. Alcoholic Frappuccino.

KBS Espresso (2020) K

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter K

Starts heavy vanilla and slight coconut familiar barrel tones and evolves to more orange citrus.

Panther Cub (2021) K

Kitty vs Mountie

Mango Smoovie K

Hint of cardamom puts it over the top.

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge K

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020) K

Big Luscious (2020) K

Can’t fairly rate most berry brews as they nearly all taste like cough syrup to me.

4 Giants IPA (2020) K

Like something from Lagunitas that spun out of control.
