The aroma is complex with waves of grapefruit, citrus peel and stone fruit with a background of bready malt. There is a light spiciness from the habanero that doesn't overwhelm and adds complexity, but at the cost of diminishing the hop aroma.

I poured this midnight-dark brew quite vigorously, and a dark tan foam cap rose swiftly to the brim of my snifter. It receded quickly, like a beach wave, and left a cola-colored liquid behind.
This earthy, complex ale poured a muddled, tawny pink in my goblet, with a pretty, light pink head and carbonation bubbles rocketing from the bottom of my glass at a frenetic rate.
Bold lactic and Brett aromas are quickly followed by lemon and cherry tartness with notes of currants. As the beer warms, some pepper and woody tones come through along with a slight touch of vanilla.

This is a smooth, soft, subtle beer that would go down easy on a hot summer day. A hint of sulfur is first noted but that quickly dissipates and gives way to a floral, almost rose-like aroma paired with a light grainy, doughy malt and a touch of... Read More
English-style ales are a dying breed here in the U.S. The ones that make it over from the U.K. are often riddled with oxidation due to a long boat ride across the Atlantic, and are many times a weak representation of the style to begin with. The... Read More
The initial aroma was a bit perfumy and off-putting but if you can get past that, there is a nice beer underneath. This particular example was a little oxidized so the caramel became apparent while the hops slid to the background. There was a... Read More
An array of hop oils wafts from the glass with bright notes of cantaloupe, mango and orange pith. The aroma is all hops – no malt to speak of. The aroma’s hop assault continues throughout sampling of the beer with enough complexity to keep you... Read More
“Refreshingly traditional..." This mythical advertising tagline kept spooling in my brain as I sipped this finely crafted pilsner.
The aroma has a lot going on, and honestly it’s all good and superbly balanced. There is some traditional barnyard funk from Brettanomyces, but not so much it overshadows anything else. The hop presence is medium and bright, and I get a lot of... Read More
The beer pours a nice solid yellow color with a bit of haze. The head was white, fluffy and had a moderate retention. The aroma was inviting and refreshing. I got a little hint of lactic sourness, some low wheat aromas and some restrained... Read More
The aroma of this pale Kellerbier is a great blend of noble hops (earthy, herbal and a touch of spice), pale malts and yeast. The yeast and malt provide a slight bread-like quality that rounds out the hop aromas nicely.
The session IPA can be a delightful beer, especially for the hophead who wants to keep their wits about them, while also drinking more than one or two beers. This one has a bold tropical fruit aroma, like passion fruit and guava are being... Read More
The aroma of this brew is quite fruity with a considerable amount of cherry and berry character, along with a light barnyard funk and aromatic sourness. The base dubbel makes itself known with an evident brown malt and light raisin aroma.
