I ordered the sampler here and I don’t feel like rating each individual beer, so it’s all going here. Every one of the six beers in the sampler were less than good. The IPA was probably the best of the bunch (not saying much), while the white was hard to put down (and that’s just the sample size). I’d rather have a Leinie Red than this red.

Not much for aroma, bearly any head at all. The flavor was not bad but nothing to write home about, but all of CJ’s beers seem medicore.

12 oz. bottle: Transparent deep amber with a diminishing off white head. Aromas of sweat socks up front, with some sweeter caramel malt in the back. Tastes like crap, my god, stale ingredients, slightly bitter finish.

This just very well be the worst brewpub (beer wise) that Ive ever come across. The flavors of the bottled product are just sour, funky and stale. Either they dont know how to bottle or the beers just suck ass.

This has decent malt flavours - fruitiness (plum) and nuttiness both, and a bit of hops, too, but the thing is textured really wildly.
