Poor House Drew Smith
On tap @Poor House. Medium gold, mostly clear, excellent still head. Boozy pine & earth nose. Aerosol hop delivery. Classic, nostalgic bitterness. Mild sharp fruit upfront but mostly spicy herbal rest of the way. Accuracy dry, thin malt, super forceful, cleansing carb. Classic West Coast. Good stuff.

Poor House Exes With Hexes
Default 9oz goblet pour at the source. I think the bartender told me the barrel but I didn't jot it down & I can't find mention of it on the interwebs. Russet, opaque, dull pour with very little head. Twangy nose, deep fruit, old leather, traveling fumes. Tangy cherry, berry, subdued cider vinegar, mellow twang, scratchy malt, medium high acidity, old bruin feels. High carb, very little noticable oxidation, soda burn. Kinda great.
