2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
In the nose alone, one can tell this is under-hopped, and it doesn’t get any better. It looked good! Man, Odd Side’s stouts always impress me so much... but the hop forward options (aside from Citra) bum me out.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Very interesting! Fruity front to the aroma but with notes like body odor. A sense of celery in the flavor. Tingling palate, some hop attack, but complex and subtle. Good beer. (on tap at brewery)
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pintbat Ashleys near Detroit. This was deeper brown and copper. A nice layer of blotches that became lacing. This is full of grapefruit citrus and had more than average bitterness. Caramel added sweetness and smoothness. This was also a bit grainy. Not a bad IPA at all.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft sample. Poured hazy amber with an average fizzy off-white head that mostly lasted and had good lacing. Moderate sour citrus hop and malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy bittersweet rye flavor with a medium to heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. Very good drinkable brew.
