Knee Deep Brewing Company – Ryedentity Crisis (Saison)

By , May 20, 2012 12:08 am
  • 8.00% ABV
  • For fuck’s sake this is a pretty good Saison. It is a little sweet but not over the top distractingly. so. The smell!!! Oh the smell, I want to turn it into a god damn air freshener. It isnt as flowery tasting as what I expect from Saison, and yes I know that is a completely abstract criticism. What ever, I think I know the deal here… It is a little buttery tasting. Werd, it is pretty good.

Yo-Ho Brewing Company – Aooni (American IPA)

By , May 19, 2012 9:14 pm
  • 7.00% ABV
  • This is the second beer from Yo-Ho and this review is pretty much an exact copy of the last review. This is pretty good but completely unremarkable.

Yo-Ho Brewing Company – Tokyo Black (American Porter)

By , May 19, 2012 8:32 pm
  • 5.00% ABV
  • A beer from Japan that isnt a Saporo or a Kirin, yay! Well other than being from Japan it doesnt really have a lot going on with it. It is good but there are a ton of better ones I can get my hands on.

Dogfish Head Craft Brewery – Tweason’ale (Fruit)

By , May 19, 2012 7:51 pm
  • 6.00% ABV
  • This is actually really good for a beer that isnt a beer. I mean I guess it is a beer but it wasnt brewed with malts and that is strange. Anyway you can totally tell that it isnt really a beer but not in a bad way. I like it and thank god for Dogfish always trying new and odd things but I dont think I will try another one.

Short’s Brewing Company – The Soft Parade (Fruit)

By , May 19, 2012 6:48 pm
  • 9.00% ABV
  • This is pretty good but I think there is something a little wrong with mine. There is way to much carbonation, like so much that I was able to pour a bout an inch of beer and the rest of the glass was full of foam. It is so bad that it is detracting from the taste a little bit. I would imagine that with out the obvious problem this would be really good.

Clown Shoes – Miracle (American IPA)

By , May 18, 2012 9:15 pm
  • 5.50% ABV
  • This is a normal every day IPA that hits all of the notes you would expect. It is hoppy with a touch of bitter. It is crisp tasting with a touch of bitter. It is bitter with a touch of bitter. It is fucking bitter with an ass raping of bitter… Well maybe not Ruination bitter but it is good. So basically it is a decent IPA right? WRONG!!! It is an awesome IPA for the one fact that it is only 5.5% ABV. This is truly a session worthy IPA that tastes like an IPA. Now dont misunderstand me, Bitter American and Levitation are still the session beer of choice but holy crap this is different. Those two are highish IBU pale ales that you can drink all night. They are really good but they are not IPA’s/ This is an IPA that you can truly drink all night.

Breckenridge Brewery – Regal Pilsner (American Double)

By , May 7, 2012 8:38 pm
  • 7.00% ABV
  • Not bad for an Imperial but it is a Pilsner and in my experience that arnt very overpowering to start of with. That isnt a slam on Pilsner’s but lets be honest they arnt like drinking an IPA or a Flanders Red. Ehhh it is OK but even for a really overpowered Pilsner it doesnt taste like a whole lot.

RJ Rockers Brewing Company – Son of a Peach (American Pale Wheat Ale)

By , May 7, 2012 7:31 pm
  • 5.80% ABV
  • I expected a punch in the mouth of peach in this but I was a little disappointed. At first I was just like blah, but there is a little more going on in here. The peach is there it is just subtle and sneaky. Like a second after taking a sip I get like a smooth stealth attack of the peach. It is like a Navy Seal team coming in and shooting my taste buds in the mouth. You arnt really sure what happened but there is no doubt something did happen.

Weyerbacher Brewing Company – Verboten (Belgian Pale Ale)

By , May 7, 2012 6:36 pm
  • 5.90% ABV
  • Go figure, Weyerbacher made a decent Belgian pale ale. I generally don’t like Weyerbacher mostly because of their most horrible and foul Simcoe and I really dont like Belgian beers. I guess it to to wrongs to make a right. And this is mostly a right… For the most part. It is a little muted compared to what I normally enjoy but that is to be expected, you know it being Belgian and all. Other than that it pretty freakin good. No noticeable hops and a definite if not overbearing sweetness that I am actually enjoying. For once…

Stone Brewing Company – TBA (American Brown Ale)

By , May 7, 2012 5:47 pm
  • 7.10% ABV
  • Hooray for Stone and Bear Republic and Fat Head I guess. But mostly for Stone because once again they deliver. I have had a shit load of Stone beer and only like 2 of them have been not to my liking. Not bad just not a style I liked. This is fucking WERD!!!! Brown Ale brewed with brown sugar and molasses sounds like it should be pretty sweet right? Wrong, this is a Stone and that is reflected in the taste. It has that same Stone bitterness that I expect, I would say it is in-between their Pale Ale and IPA. But you can taste the brown sugar in it. I am so happy…

Saint Louis Brewery – Schlafly American IPA (American IPA)

By , May 5, 2012 11:56 pm
  • 7.20% ABV
  • I generally dont like Schlafly beers. They are mostly bland and watered down in an effort to appeal to Mr. Every Day Man. What ever…. This is a good yet middle of the road IPA. It is actually pretty good but not an outstanding IPA. I would gladly drink a shit load of these and really enjoy them.

Shmaltz Brewing Company – He’Brew Hop Manna Test Batch #2 (American IPA)

By , May 5, 2012 10:51 pm
  • 6.80% ABV
  • OK for the entire evening I have been bitching about how all IPA’s taste the same. Blah blah blah. I dont know what the fuck I am talking about most of the time. This is one of those times. This is a good IPA that is low on the malt and high(ish) on the malts. I like it pretty good. I am gonna drink this shit real good.

21st Amendment Brewery – Monk’s Blood (Belgian Strong Dark Ale)

By , May 5, 2012 10:11 pm
  • 8.30% ABV
  • No sir! I dont like it. Yes I know I have said that before but it still is a true statement. I dont really like it. It has all of the characteristics of a Belgian that I fucking hate, sweetness being number one. M1 thinks it tastes like gum and I think that is a generous description. Belgian styles suck.

Oskar Blues Grill & Brewery – Deviant Dale’s IPA (American Double)

By , May 5, 2012 9:59 pm
  • 8.00% ABV
  • Not bad… It is a little strong but it is a double so it is actually pretty good. It is basically a normal tasting IPA but with the Double punch in it. I dont know I basically have had every type of IPA known to man. It is pretty good.

DC Brau Brewing Company – The Citizen (Belgian Pale Ale)

By , May 5, 2012 8:36 pm
  • 7.00% ABV
  • If you have read any of my reviews of Belgian beer you should know that I fucking hate them. Well for the most part I hate them. This is one of those weird times that it actually works. The sweetness is muted to the point that I can actually enjoy it. It is still there but not to the point of distraction. I dont know why it is called a Pale Ale because there is absolutely nothing Pale about it but what ever I like it.
