Aromatic aftershave lotioning, peppery hop nose, and blue agave-spiced eucalyptus tongue climax with mint-y freshness. Initial peculiarities give way after a few sips, leaving an excessively cloy ginger-sugared finish. Pour slowly to correctly balance agave with sharp tequila twist.

Serene golden ale with cocoa and spices inspired by ancient Aztec drink, Xocolati, counters curry-smoked black pepper mandate with mild mocha. Red ale-like fruited sweetness fortifies floral backdrop and vanilla-cinnamon trickle to cardboard-y chocolate malt finish. A lighter alternative to Rogue’s Chipotle Ale?

Thin bronze-hazed spice ale contrasts candi-sugared balm against mild mustard seed bitterness. Lively lemon-bruised souring seeps into fresh cut-grassed barnyard hay earthiness. Vinous mouth-puckering grape tartness curtails coriander seasoning. A bit watery for unique dry-bodied offshoot.
