slowrunner77	2.6 Depot Street Southbound Scottish Ale "courtesy of bluesandbarbq - nice looking cloudy ruby brown ale. smoke in the aroma with some fruity maltiness. smooth body as well, but the flavor was a bit of a hybrid of styles, although i’d guess unintentionally. the fruitiness from the malt was cool, but there was the (sometimes present in scottish ales) lemony astringency that took away from the flavor of the peet and smoke. the aftertaste was both scottish ale and a weak attempt at a sour. possibly oxidized?? i’ve had occasional bottles of Sacsquatch & Kilt Lifter’s that had a similar aspect as well-but never on tap." Sunday, October 5, 2014
slowrunner77	3.1 Depot Street Depot Express Pale Ale the style and part of the name say Pale, but the brewer’s description and the bottle say Amber. light amber color with a nicely balanced aroma of fruity malt, nuts, and hops. a smooth easy drinking amber. not complicated, but pleasant in every aspect. " Sunday, October 5, 2014
slowrunner77	3 Depot Street Roundabout Rye Stout "thanks Lou. beer #1 of the giant box! lots of suds here. it headed up two inches, but i turned my back, and when i came back, it was an inch or so above the glass and spilling over. a little oxygen? pretty dark, though a thinner stout. nice aromas of roasted grain, molasses, and the slightest hint of rye and like they say, astringency. i wanted more rye...i didn’t really get any in the flavor. overall, a decent dry stout." Thursday, October 2, 2014
eRock_2013	3.5 Depot Street Freight Hopper A nice relatively easy-drinking IPA, pours a very attractive pale ruby appearance with good lacing, could pass for an amber ale based on looks. Smell is fresh and features both the piney hop and malty notes. The flavor itself is a lighter-bodied west coast hoppiness with a thin malty background. Hint of caramel present. Toasty and tasty, although it seems there is some off-flavors in the finish. Bitterness is a bit sticky. Still pretty good overall, and it's lighter weight makes it more sessionable. Not sure if I'd drink this again, but I'm glad I tried it. Depot Street brewing is on the right track. Tuesday, September 2, 2014

eRock_2013	3.3 Depot Street Roundabout Rye Stout My introduction to Tennessee micro-brewing. This brew offers a unique combination, traditional coffee and dark chocolate stout flavors with a rye malty tang. Pours from the bottle a brown/ black color with some white head, average appearance. Aroma of roasted malt, average. Good distinctive flavor overall, enjoyable, medium mouthfeel, dryer finish. As I've never seen a rye stout before, I would drink this again as a bit of a novelty offering. A good introduction to Depot Street brewing. Sunday, August 31, 2014
Itzjerm	2.8 Depot Street Freight Hopper Way over carbonated almost a gusher. Flavor is off grain malt light hop. Not impressed. Hopper away from this one. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone Monday, August 18, 2014
