Solemn Oath’s The Snaggle Tooth Bandana American IPA started out with moderate hop aroma that was resinous with fruity overtones. Medium low bready malt was in support. As it warmed up in the glass the hop aroma opened up a bit and became... Read More

A moderate malt caramel and light toasty/biscuit-like malt aroma is up front in the nose for this beer. A little swirl of the glass releases more toast and biscuit aroma with just a hint of earthy noble hops in the background.

Touting a “striking hop intensity” and a “rich backbone of caramel and roasted malt”, this rich and complex beer impresses at all levels.

Consolation Prize opens with an overall restrained aroma with a balance of caramel, grapefruit, and generic herbaceous and floral notes. Although the aroma leaves a bit to be desired for a double IPA, the appearance is spot on. The light amber... Read More

This IPA opens with moderate lychee, grapefruit, mandarin oranges, and resin that mingle with honey and grain. The aroma is pleasant and refreshing without the generic fruit salad character that can come from using modern New World hops. ... Read More

With Oktoberfest just around the corner this beer was a nice addition. The beer had the color of light brown that was very clear and translucent. The aroma of this beer includes lightly roasted malts that had hints of sweetness and no hop aromas... Read More

Hop aromas reminiscent of tropical fruits, melon and floral qualities are present, but fairly understated for a Double IPA. Caramel malt and some sweetness also come through in the aroma of this beer, along with a touch of alcohol aroma.

Pouring with a golden hue and orange highlights, the beer expresses prominently fruity aromatics of grapefruit and lemon alongside lychee, passion fruit and a touch of white peach.

The aroma of this Double IPA shows itself to be distinctive right away. Absent are the citrus fruit hop aromas that have come to be expected in this style; instead, It is peppery, earthy, herbal, and musty. Low caramel maltiness supports this... Read More

Burnt City Brewing’s Retrofit Lime Radler was a good summertime drinker. It began with a low note of bready wheat, followed by some low notes of lime. No hops were noted and fermentation character was very clean. There was a slight hint of papery... Read More

Burnt City Brewing’s Face Melter Hibiscus IPA had close to a medium high level of peach and passionfruit hop aroma at the forefront. The floral tones of hibiscus intermingled at a moderate level. The beer also had a low, pleasant grassy tone.

This beer pours golden and clear. It exhibits a thick appearance; a white foamy head crowns it with a long lasting retention. A small string of bubbles in the glass is seen rising to the top. The aroma of medium low bready, doughy, and cracker-... Read More
