The Brewer's Cabinet Aortic Eruption
Sampled from the tap at Sierra Taphouse. Pours a clear amber gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of pine with some grass and citrus rind underlying. Flavor has pine and grass with a touch of citrus and grains supporting.

The Brewer's Cabinet Bavarian Breakfast
@Strange Brew Light cloudy gold. Not unpleasant, but an odd choice at the very least. Mocha is super light. Mint and hef yeast is not, and they don't quite work.

The Brewer's Cabinet Belgian Breakfast
@Strange Brew pours a cloudy orange with whipped cream on top - thought it was the butterbeer and they gave the wrong one by looks alone. But alas, twas not. Just a non descipt sweet mess. Belgian waffle? Didn;t get any syrup like notes. Not a fan.

@Strange Brew Kinda pulled this one off. Can get the peppercorns but the roasted peppers were VERY subtle.

The Brewer's Cabinet Stumbledore's Tuned Up Butterbeer
@Strange Brew Vauely Belgian Yeast, decent enough if not very strange or memorable. But it gets docked points for not tasting or smelling at all like it's name implies.

The Brewer's Cabinet Beary's Succulent Sud
On tap at Ole Bridge Pub, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is somewhat sweaty and musty in the hop department, with a tired earthy sweat sock hop character. Flavour is musty, with earthy hops, light pine, and bready malt. Bready and earthy, with a weak hop expression. Disappointing.

The Brewer's Cabinet Dirty Yeti
Slightly cloudy golden stout on tap at BeerNV. Vanilla and cocoa dominant. A little citrus in the middle which throws the palate off, but it recovers.

The Brewer's Cabinet Moon Dunes
Pours thinner than other Hazy IPAs I have had in the past - head settles quick and thin. Bright in the nose. Refreshing - although a bit more on the bitter Hoppy side, but righteous if that’s your thing. Not as silly as a Hazy should be - but quite delicious. Grapefruit, citrus, and pine are very prevalent. Finish is actually a tad sweet but settles quickly into Hoppy deliciousness. Enjoyed from the Tap at a Beach Hut Deli in northwest Reno. Cheers!

Not sure how I've missed this - have had a few times. Crisp and clean, light hops and cereal. Nothing amazing but solid for the style.

The Brewer's Cabinet Carrickmacross
Nitro pour at BeerNV. Confused as to wether this is supposed to be an Irish Ale or Cream ale, or both. Advertised as a cream ale on the board at the bar and on untappd, drinks more like a decent irish red that happens to have some lactose or vanilla in it. OK.

The Brewer's Cabinet One In A Melon
Pinkish orange pour at BC. Malt forward, lightly sour with a nice fresh watermelon nose and flavor. I think this would be 4+ if it was light and refreshing, but the malt and 7% are just a touch more than needed.

The Brewer's Cabinet Earl Grey Lavender Cream Ale
Amber colored pour at Strange Brew. One of the better brews (was 2nd on my vote). Lavender and tea are there but not overbearing and the creamy vanilla aspect really worked with this one.

The Brewer's Cabinet Green Tea Mochi Beer
Very bright emerald green pour at Strange Brew. Accurate if a bit over the top. Not just green tea, but mochi specifically. I kinda dug it, but wouldn't want a lot.

The Brewer's Cabinet Mac & Cheese Habanero
Poured at Strange Brew. Neon yellow-orange. Aroma and flavor of the leftover water from Kraft Mac & Cheese, with some spice thrown in to make it slightly less disgusting. Fun, fake, ultimately a bit gross.

The Brewer's Cabinet Shake Junt!
Tap at BC. Pours cloudy dark orange in color. Aroma is more earthy malty hops than I'd pick for this sub-style, but still pleasant. Some light citrus and vanilla as well. The feel and flavor really has the lactose vanilla part down. Still not the hop profile I'd choose for a milkshake and I think the cocoa bitterness adds to that feeling, but they nailed a couple pieces of the puzzle so gotta give em credit.

Slightly opaque golden yellow pour, on tap at BeerNV (and Brewer's Cabinet). Really enjoy the green chili nose and flavor, combined with risp clean kolsch. Lacking spice, though, and a little weak on the finish.
