Malt Mates' Maté Whitaker

Subtle salty peach aroma is quite nice. The body is light feel if peach, salt, & a dry finish. It’s a bit straight forward, a bit light, a bit all around forgettable. But also nice to sit & drink.

Fluff Whitaker

Subtle lemony biscuit aroma is nice. Body is light, & quite nice. Lemon & biscuit in the body, then a nice dry finish. Back to our amazing conversation now though. 😆

Sundial Whitaker

Bright pine in the aroma is classic for the WC style. Body is light, piney, & very nice. There’s a hint of resin, there’s a hint of candied peach, a nice dry finish.

7th Year Anniversary Whitaker

Subtle piney, oniony aroma is lovely. The body is medium feel, with a big tropical sweet body, but full of pine & resin. It’s a perfect balanced, it’s full bodied but not overwhelming. Fucking wonderful.

Organic Pilsner Whitaker

Bright grassy, floral aroma. A bit of sulfur in classic lager style. The body is surprising, in that there’s a hint of… smoke?? It’s a bit smokey, a bit savory? Wild. The rest is a bit biscuity into the finish. But quite unique & enjoyable.

White Bloom Whitaker

Funky, coriander & clove aroma. Body is delicate, lovely. There’s a subtle hint of creaminess to the feel from the wheat, with a subtle zing of coriander on top. There’s a hint of sweet orange, with a nice light finish. Lovely jubbly.

Fotonik - Strata Whitaker

Raw, piney, oniony hop aroma that we got as we dumped hops into the boil yesterday. Love it, although too subtle here! The body is light, subtle sweet passion fruit with a soft carb. No hops in the body really until a subtle resiny note in the finish.

House of Pale Whitaker

Subtle grassy, piney aroma. Body has a bright carb, a bright citrus peel & passion fruit body. Nice soft feel, nice clean finish. It’s a classic for the style, if not a bit round for my preference.

Organic Classic Whitaker

Not sure this is a variant version, but the smoke is nice & subtle. Light feel, but still full of bready caramel sweet goodness. All around a classic, but with some nice smoke notes added

Very soft citrus aroma. Body’s also soft, with a huge juicy sweetness full of orange sweetness, grapefruit peel, & lovely tropical notes. A CLASSIC, DUMB, BOMBASTIC. What a hazy is always supposed to be. I miss classic hazies.

Mumbo Jumbo #5 Coconut, Pineapple, Lime, Toasted Coconut Whitaker

Subtle raw apricot & peach aroma is lovely, inviting, a little tart. The body is where the soft, subtle sweet cherry note comes in. Feel is soft, round, & not particularly tart, but still a very nice feel. Finish is light, subtle sweet cherry & apricot.

Limbo - Riesling Whitaker

Sweet white grape aroma is as lovely as the disgusting cigarette smell from the fuckers around me. The feel is bright & sticky sweet honey & white grape. Bright carb clears it up a little bit, but it’s still pretty sweet & sugary. A bit much for me.

Suborbital Whitaker

Aroma is… tobacco smoke? Body is much more of what I would expect, with a light feel, a nice dry finish, a toasted dark bread note throughout & some light roasted coffee notes in the finish. The aroma throws me a bit, but it’s still an enjoyable beer.

Nice toasted caramel sweet aroma. Body is nice, bright, & slightly toasted, & nicely drinkable. The finish lingers a bit, with those caramel notes. Very nice! (Had this last night) very different review than last time! Interesting…

Subtle biscuit, banana, & clove is sweet & aromatic. The body is light, subtle zing of bright carb, a hint of lemony citrus, but the same nice notes. The clove lingers nicely in the finish, and now back to Copenhagen!!

Roskilde Pilsneren Whitaker

Light aroma is overcome by a wonderful aroma of gem pen rope. The body is a nice balance between pine, floral resin & a light note of honey bread underneath. All quite nice, we’ll brewed.

Dirty Bastard Whitaker

Haven’t checked this in since 2016! Subtle caramel aroma, & the body follows suit with a lovely caramel sweet flavor, a creamy head that lingers for quite a while, & a medium feel that’s very drinkable. A lil’ single-note, but still quite nice.

Mango Smoovie Whitaker

These are not beers, usually more of a desserts. This isn’t even that. It’s a beer slushee, lots of mango: a lil’ in the aroma & a lot in the body. Juicy AF, but almost no sweetness. The carb is weird in the slushee, the finish is kinda mango rind bitter.

Campfire Amplifier Whitaker

Very subtle dark chocolate aroma, with maybe a hint of vanilla? Up front a big vanilla sweetness that does fade into “that” marshmallow sugar flavor. There’s a nice dark chocolate buried underneath, & it finishes with marshmallow lingering in the finish.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020) Whitaker

Subtle blend of coffee & vanilla in the aroma. Waited to let it warm up, & received a pleasant up front cherry sweetness, followed by bitter roasted coffee, charred oak, a nice note of dark chocolate in the finish. Well balanced & dangerously drinkable.

Green Zebra Whitaker

Bright floral aroma is nice, but the body is WOW SWEET. Salty pop in the front, bright, candy sweet watermelon, & a light salty sweet watermelon finish. Too much for my taste, not dry enough, but enjoyable… as a soda?
