Through security and having a tasty stout. Loads of sweet amaretto, chocolate, and mild coffee. Mikkeller is better even in the airport here!

Hoppy and sweet hazy. Juicy but the sweetness kind of overwhelms.

Tropical juice smoothie. Strawberry and guava with some pineapple flavor. Not bad at all.

Like a hoppy homebrew in the best way. Lots of hops with tons of aroma and flavor. Smooth and easy.

Smoke nose with a milder smoke flavor. Not bad. Rich but a bit thin. Easy to drink.

Juicy and smooth IPA. Very easy to drink. Glad we found this little place and… 20% off today so it’s probably cheaper than half the city.

Mumbo Jumbo #1: Passion Fruit, Guava, Raspberry Rite
If you’d told me this was a tropical juice smoothie mixed with some tart fruits, I’d have thought nothing of it. Tart and tropical fruit, thick and juicy.

Finally slowing down after a lot of running over the past two weeks. Of course, the hotel has no power. Or course, the hotel has no water. But recon done and we’ve found the check in for tomorrow. Nice barleywine with a little muted character. Not bad.

Burnt sugar and figs with toasty and roasty notes. Lots of caramel and malt. Almost sticky but lots of balanced bitterness at the end. Massive thanks to Ulrik O. And Julie J. this one!

Mellowed but still a great choice. Especially with friends!

Always a fine choice and especially fine with friends.

Oh, this one is different than I was expecting. Cocoa and some interesting hop notes. The woodsy flavor has really faded. Reminds me of a porter with a ton of pale chocolate and dehusked roast malts.

Like a mild Schwarzwälder Kuchen with more alcohol and malt. Really nice.

Off On A Natural Charge Bon Voyage Rite
Malty, yeasty, fruity, funky. Always wanted to try one in Vilnius so this is as close as I’ve gotten.

Tasty Doppelbock if a little overboard with the roast. Nice maltiness, good smoothness.

A Double Mosaic Daydream About Blueberry Cannibals Rite

Grapefruit with pine resin and a fistful of dank. Assertive bitterness.

Nice bitterness and lots of West Coast hoppy goodness. The cask makes it soft and brings out some of the subtle notes.

Roast, toast, coffee, nutty, vanilla, sweetness, malt. Really tasty.

Well aged with lots of hoppy aroma up front. Tasty with some deep richness and malt, hops still apparent, a touch of bitterness.

Freshly tapped at DFH. Wine notes but not a lot of wit character left. Not bad but not something I’d want a lot of.
over 1 year ago
A bit boozy with a lot of cranberry and some cherry. Sweet and malty. Thick and rich.

Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA Rite
A fine decision that could lead to poor ones. Or is it pour ones? Hoppy but not overboard. Booze and caramel. Malt and sweetness. Super smooth and drinks like a beer half its weight.
over 1 year ago
Always a good beer, especially when it’s fresh from the source! Glad that Jenny B. can sample it in DE, as well.
over 1 year ago
Very enjoyable. A bit hoppier than its German counterpart but so good.

A fun citrusy golden. Shocked I’ve not checked it in before. Thank you Kathleen M. for the picture. I cropped it to make sure it was unique!
over 1 year ago
Light and Pilsner-y. Grass notes and some nice tropical fruit and mild grapey notes. Glad to enjoy it with Kathleen M. and Jenny B.

Vanilla, oak, cocoa, mild roast, sweetness, malty, smooth, rich, and decadent. Glad to share with Kathleen M. and Jenny B.

It’s been 10 years since I’ve had this one. This one is a lot better than the last ones! Nice bitterness and not over the top roasty.

Fruity, ginger-y, tart. A fun beer to try. And a very happy birthday to Kathleen M.‘s progeny. Cheers to the next few quarter centuries!

Very enjoyable with a nice malt note after the mildly dank, citrus, and resin notes. A good solid bitterness, as well.

Flavorful Mexi lager and salt and lime. Not bad at all! Someone said something about a stepped up Corona.
almost 2 years ago
2010s West Coast IPA malt bill and hop profile with an East Coast haze thrown in. Almost cosmopolitan. Or maybe what beer would’ve been if folks hadn’t have cared about filtering in 2012? Not bad!

A bit more caramel than last time. Like a creamy salted caramel Rolo. Only better. It’s lower in abv but tastes pretty damn good.

Oloroso Sherry Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA Rite
Definitely getting the sherry. Very smooth and not nearly as sweet as I was expecting. This would be dangerous in quantity since it drinks like a 7% even though it IS boozy tasting. A paradoxical beverage. Glad to share with Kathleen M.
almost 2 years ago
Thank you Kathleen M. for a fresh reminder that I need to have a pumpkin spiced beer every so often.

Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA (2023) Rite

Nutty with tropical notes. Solid bitterness and not overly sweet. Really nice.

A very tasty Pilsner. Quite “czech” as well. Wishing for a hint more hops but that’s just me. Well done.

Bière De Coupage: Le Botaniste Rite
Fun beer with lots of sourness and some spiciness, as well. Not the usual kettle sour, for sure.

Lots of cocoa and a little cherry. Not bad at all. Wishing for a bit more of everything. Especially at the price!

LCI-Roasty and deep for such a light beer. Very well done! Thank you Kathleen M. for another beer!
about 2 years ago
Not bad. Nicely balanced. Malty and smooth. Not getting a ton of malted milk ball flavors but that’s ok. Thank you Kathleen M. for driving AND paying!
about 2 years ago
Good beer but didn’t get the cocoa, pepper, or spices. Smooth and easy drinking but wishing I’d have gotten more of the Mexican influences.
about 2 years ago
Has a definite “shit! The fuzz is here! Toss the stash in the mash!” quality. But in a good way. Sweet, smooth, crisp, and easy to drink.
about 2 years ago
A nice take on a tmave. Light and refreshing but just enough roast to make it not the usual Pilsner.

Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA Rite
Wow. That sums this up. Hoppy but super smooth. Malty and bitterness are spot on. Sweetness is perfect for a good barleywine. So tasty! Highly recommended. Handle with care!

This is so good. Boozy and sweet with plenty of malty and roasty goodness. Smooth and way too easy to drink.

Nice and coffee-y with plenty of roast. Just sweet enough to be very well balanced. A very easy to drink coffee stout.

On tap and small batch! Really a nice look at the recent past and evolution of the style. Hoppy, aromatic, a hint of malty sweetness.

Having a virtual post long-ass day tipple with someone even more overworked than me! I hope tomorrow goes better Kathleen M.!

Found a bottle that had aged just a little. Bottled in December 2009. Surprisingly, zero off flavors. Absolutely no hop character other than a hint of bitterness. It did have a bit of sediment, though. Not sure why Kathleen M. said she didn’t want any?
over 2 years ago
Another find. This one was only 10.5 years old, though. No hops, a little sweetness, a hint of bitterness. This one has a ton of compacted sediment. Should’ve shared it with Kathleen M.

Funky, a little dry, some great malt notes, and well balanced.

I’ve had a few from this 16 March 2022 batch. Not sure why I didn’t check them in. Oh well, it’s always a good beer. And especially good after a long day. Right Kathleen M. ?

Because this is too good not to savor from a cool glass, I chose to use one Kathleen M. gave me for my birthday! Keto starts hard tomorrow!

Not bad. Aroma is probably a bit better than the flavor but the hazelnut comes on strong after.
almost 3 years ago
Such a cool, crisp day. Perfect for a big stout. Ok, so maybe I’m exaggerating the coolness and crispness and just wanted a a rich, boozy, chocolaty stout. Hopefully Kathleen M. can enjoy one with me soon.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2022) Rite
May have fallen off a notch from its previous glory but damn, for $16 a four pack? The best bargain in BBA stouts. Rich, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and tons of cocoa. Malt and roast and just plain deep. Maybe it’s not quite as good but it’s still great!

I wish they’d have stuck with a neutral yeast. Really phenolic but I’d like to have the ingredients without the yeast help.

Pulling for one of my friend’s favorite teams in a match. I am hoping that this time I can make it there. Cheers Kathleen M. and COYG. I hope to see you and DFH and maybe a few other places in that part of the world soon. 🤞🍀🤞🍀

It’s been a while on this one. Hoppy but solidly malty. Some nice caramel notes. Grapefruit and citrus, pine and resin, floral and dank. $3 for a tall boy?! Yes, I believe I will. And I hope I can have it at the source soon, Kathleen M.. Fingers crossed

Utopias Barrel - Aged World Wide Stout (2021) Rite
Kathleen M. - you’ve outdone yourself. One of those beers I’ve always wanted is here and in my glass thanks to you! Thank you again. This is fan-f’ing-tastic. Nose is malt, cocoa, toffee, booze. Tastes of rich dark chocolate cake, malt, roast, sweetness,
over 3 years ago
This one’s good! Strong coffee and chocolate notes and some great booze and alcohol in the middle then finishes sweet and roasty. Malt backbone is huge with some toast and spiciness. Recommended!
