Dry-hopped bruised orange opening receives snazzy white pepper spicing as herbal nuance builds. Floral notes (dandelion-rosewood) embitter smoked wood bottom sufficiently.

Even-tempered cold-filtered amber-hazed medium body sprays dry tangerine notes across tamped down hops, cracked wheat midst, and corn sugar finish, weakening substantially for tepid aftertaste.

Canned Dutch version of stalwart Irish ale has better toasted graining, dry-hopped nuttiness, and smoked peat smudge, though tea-like finish fades fast to sterile tinny aftertaste.

Musty citrus-scented, frothy-headed, amber-clouded medium body features prominent orange rind bitterness underlined by decorative floral hops and transient buttery creaminess. Chewy yeast texture sweetens the load as high carbonation leaves trails of clinging Brussels lace.

Mild maroon-hued bitter with unique dry red wine essence. Purple grape esters recede to bittersweet black cherry tartness lightened by sour chocolate wisp, crystalline watering, and flat carbonation. Mild dirt-grained grid is only so-so.

Single worst red ale ever. Pungent vegetal fumes and blase’ dried fruit mouthfeel douse roasted caramel malting, leaving dirty-grained fizz-hopped aluminum-like stagnancy.

Light-bodied chestnut-hued brown ale brings candied sugar malt waft to toasted barley efficiency, nutty chocolate fizz, and raisin-date sweetness juxtaposing roasted coffee signature. Tamped down hop dryness secures earthy wheat backbone but phenol astringency shrivels mocha finish.

Elegant burgundy-cleared chocolate-wafted English pale ale provides dry Scotch malt frontage with roasted hop gust and tangy citric-cherry allure to cracked wheat bottom. Meager caramel apple stint and cocoa-tea-tobacco hints lost in soured prune midst. By finish, watered down Scotch blotch brought down a notch.

Lively rust-copper Irish-styled ale contrasts spicy hop bitterness with cracked wheat, caramel malts, and honeyed cornmeal for medium-bodied joyance. Brewery defunct: 2006.

Wholly organic amber-styled ale guided by musty mildewed malts, mineral grains, and bitter hops. Clustered berry-nut tones underpin subtlest nectar sweetness. At fruity finish, resounding orange peel bittering gathers mossy intrigue.

Pour slowly highly hopped hemp-aided red ale. Sweet grained outline cannot fortify drifting undefined spicing, tea-like nuance, and lost nuttiness, finishing in chemically medicinal doldrums.

Nearly everything you’d ever want in a red ale. Sinewy yeast sediment embellishes mild hop-fizzed fruitiness and sweet mocha malts for mellow flow. Savory pale-fruited finish lingers on the tongue as hints of nectar and pear brighten the corners. Brewery defunct: 2001.
