Eastern Shore Brewing Reviews

BelgianBeerGal	3.5 Eastern Shore Situation Critical Draft at the Annapolis Westin hotel bar because it seems like the only thing they actually have this evening. Pretty average west coast styled IPA with medium bitterness from pine. Good malt backbone. Nice enough and much better than the clumsy bar service. Sunday, December 31, 2023

nuplastikk	3.2 Eastern Shore Situation Critical 12oz can. Kind of off-putting diesel orange aroma. Reminiscent of East Coast IPAs of yesteryear. Some bitterness, which is admirable in 2022, but overall not too impressive. Grew on me some. Decent balance. Full bodied. Monday, May 30, 2022
radagast83	3.6 Eastern Shore Reeser's Peanut Butter Choc Stout Poured a kind of murky dark brown with a small, wispy white head. Aroma was peanut dust! Chocolate with some nice creamy peanut butter. A lot of times these peanut beers just kind of smell like cracked peanuts straight from a bag, so it was nice to actually have one of these beers taste like the real-deal. Friday, October 30, 2020
radagast83	3.5 Eastern Shore Situation Critical Can. Poured a clear light orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was super fresh hops, citrus. Flavor had really nice citrus and some light pine resin. This had a nice crisp finish to it. Enjoyable and refreshing. Friday, October 30, 2020
Slipstream	3.3 Eastern Shore Situation Critical Thx to Marko. Pretty standard IPA from what my taste buds tell me. Fairly dry and grassy, with a bit of pine, along with caramel and rye bread. It finishes dry and astringent. Aroma is not too impressive at first - cardboard, pine, pineapple, and autumn leaves - but gets richer as it warms. A good brew. Sunday, December 29, 2019
