Mortal Bloom Reidenbach

Grapefruit and orange blossom. Initially fairly malty, but quickly takes on fruity, hoppy character with hints of bubblegum.

Nemesis (2021) Reidenbach

Brown sugar, dark fruit, malty; no hint of 11.2% ABV. Sweet and somewhat syrupy. Definitely not for shy.

Nunu Hazy Ipa Reidenbach

Chocolate Cherry KBS Reidenbach

Cocoa and coffee up front. The cherry comes on mid sip followed by the bourbon and oak. Not too sweet, but definitely a desert beer (after taking my sweetie out for dinner).

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2022) Reidenbach

This is the "Deacon Blues" of beer. Think "Kind of Blue" level of perfection.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2019) Reidenbach

Very well rounded. Maple mid sip. Chocolate and coffee finish. There's a bourbon presence throughout, but is in the background. (shhh ... I found a secret stash of CBS)

World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel Aged Reidenbach

Subtle bourbon stout that hides the 18% ABV far too well. Calling this a dangerous beer is damning it with faint praise.

All Day Vacay Reidenbach

A wonderful sesh, with a crisp wheat flavor and a sweet finish. I can't ID the hop, but it has some citrus flying under the radar.

Hazy-O! Reidenbach

A/B comparing with the Hipsters Revenge. This is less juicy and leans towards peach whereas the Revenge is much more orangy. Life is good when you can have two different delicious NEIPAs back to back!

Oktoberfest Reidenbach

Heady, malty nose. An excellent fest beer that reminds me of my grandparents beer of choice from back in the day, good Germans that they were. Flavorful, malty, yeasty. Prosit!
