All Day IPA T

Still one of my favorite Session IPAs. Try to keep it on hand (when there’s room in the beer fridge).

‘Hazy IPA featuring citrucy and tropical notes.’ Yep, I’ll give it that.

Nordic Spring T

NEIPA ‘brewed with orange peels, juniper needles and berries.’ I like this a lot! Juniper takes the pine thing in a cool, almost gin like direction for both nose and palate. Good stuff!

4 Giants Hazy IPA T

Comes across a little thin for a DNEIPA especially considering the “copious amounts of oats and wheat” used. Drinks more like a citrus fruited American IPA. To be fair, I just noticed it was canned 7 months ago. My bad! Just bought it last week.

All Day Chill Day T

Take a chill pill and relax! Subtle hop bitterness, subtle malt sweetness, light on ABV. Checks all the boxes for a crisp and refreshing sessionable Cold IPA.

Breakfast Stout T

How have I never checked in with a Breakfast Stout??? Oh well, can’t say that anymore. Damn good roasty and dark chocolate but It’s so easy to get caught up in the numerous variants too.

Where the Wild Hops Are T

Really, REALLY cool complex hop flavors along with the French oak barrel-aged wild ale. Wasn’t sure what to expect but now I know I want more!

Hazy session IPA. Tasty, citrusy, juicy, clean and crushable. Another good All Day from Founders.

Más Agave T

Another check-in with Más Agave, fully dressed with citrus jalapeño salt rim and a lime garnish. I know…salt rim??? But it works nicely here.

Más Agave Prickly Pear T

Oh dats GOOD. Got into it before I remembered to take a pic. Like to garnish the original Mas with a citrus jalapeño salt rim and a lime. This on stands well on its own.

Rübæus T

Have only ever checked in with Rübæus on nitro tap. So now I’m checking in with it from a can. Not a fair comparison I would think. Still pretty tasty.

Hallo Ich Bin Berliner Weisse Blood Orange T

Enjoyable Berliner Weisse with blood orange. Light flavor, light tart but that should be expected with this style.

KBS Espresso T

Wow! Yep, ESPRESSO!!! 😳 But then again what should I expect when brewed with coffee then aged on espresso beans. Coffee lovers rejoice with this one!

Nelson Sauvignon / Sauvin Brut Passion Orange / Chardonnay Barrel Aged T

Nice citrusy wild ale brewed with orange and passion fruit for a milt tartness. Nelson Sauvin hops and chardonnay barrel aging gives it dry white wine characteristics.

Slightly Mighty T

Nice session IPA from Dogfish Head with some hazy characteristics. At 4%ABV it could possibly be a long session.

Burton Baton (2017) T

Bottled 11/20/17. Aging served it well. What a pleasant drinking experience. Hop bitterness is heavily tamed to reveal a very mellow oaky ale.

Más Agave T

Más Agave fully dressed. Imperial lime gose, tequila barrel aged with a citrus jalapeño salt rim and a lime garnish. Not exactly a typical beer practice but works very well with this one. Exquisito!
