Brewers' Tasting Room Reviews

Jabah	3 Brewers' Tasting Room Bad Badger Porter On tap at the brewpub. They had a bunch of other local brewers stuff on tap, but wanted to support the location I was at. This wasn’t the best balance for a porter. Leans towards the sweet side....could use more hops. Ok feel, but texture could be a little creamier. Medium chocolate in the flavor...the rest is kind of bland. Tuesday, July 25, 2017
djd07	4.5 Brewers' Tasting Room / 3 Sons: Summation On tap at Hunah Day. Pours black with medium tan head that lasts. The aroma is strong roast coffee, vanilla bean, bourbon, wood. Thick body, chewy, roast, vanilla, dark chocolate, roast, boozy finish, really enjoyed this. Tuesday, December 27, 2016
djd07	4.2 Brewers' Tasting Room / 3 Sons: Neapolitan On tap at Hunah Day. Pours a very dark brown with medium tan head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong strawberry, vanilla, roast, cocoa. Thick body, chewy, roast, strawberry cream, vanilla, chocolate, loved the mouth feel on this with intense Neapolitan flavors.

solidfunk	3.1 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield CTC Brown A little too sweet for me. This definitely smells like cinnamon toast, but the follow through isn’t quite there on this one - not as subtle or well done as some of their others. Pours brown with ok head. Very sweet finish. Tap at Blind Tiger. Tuesday, November 17, 2015
samsmith33	1.9 Brewers' Tasting Room Pumptoberfest On tap at killarneys. Very "wine-y". Astringent. Aroma is spice pumpkin. Taste is Apple, grape. Not a fan. Sunday, October 4, 2015
ctipping	4.1 Brewers' Tasting Room / 3 Sons: Summation On tap at Brass Tap Pines. Served in a taster. Black. No head. Coffee, vanilla, lots of sugar, and bourbon on the nose. Immensely sweet taste. Tons of vanilla. Coffee comes through second. Sweetness throughout. Heavy with low carbonation. Very tasty, but excessively sweet. Saturday, August 15, 2015
markwise	4.1 Brewers' Tasting Room / 3 Sons: Summation On draft at hunahpu day 2015. Pours a stout brown with a tan head.

Light in body and delightful overall. Monday, July 27, 2015

John25	4 Brewers' Tasting Room / 3 Sons: Neapolitan Draft sample at Hunahpu’s Day 2015. Listed as double scoop. Aroma and taste of exactly Neapolitan ice cream.

Tuesday, March 17, 2015

hopscotch	2.9 Brewers' Tasting Room Thirsty Bear Ale Draft... Pours cloudy and yellow with a small, creamy, white head. Fantastic retention. The aroma is faint and clean, but uninteresting. Medium to full-bodied with a viscous mouthfeel for the style and tickling carbonation. The flavor is bright, lightly sweet, fruity and bready. Mildly sweet, tangy finish. Not at all bad. Well executed, but I don’t like Belgian-style wits. Friday, October 3, 2014
fluffy	3 Brewers' Tasting Room / Oskar Blues Southeast Saison wow, seems like saisons are where BTR shines. this one is a little sweet. but otherwise pretty good. Wednesday, August 13, 2014
fluffy	3.2 Brewers' Tasting Room Boogart's Cherry Poppin' Sayz-On aside from having a stupid and confusing name, this is actually pretty delicious. great summer beer. Wednesday, August 13, 2014
fluffy	2.9 Brewers' Tasting Room Focus Direct Resonse a pretty middle of the road amber, but above average of most of the ones out there. Monday, July 28, 2014
fluffy	3 Brewers' Tasting Room Sundaze Berliner apparently made with aloe vera, which ive never tasted so i cant speak to its flavor. but overall, a decent middle of the road berliner. quite nice. Thursday, July 3, 2014
fluffy	3.2 Brewers' Tasting Room Bad Badger Orange Honey Ale hazy gold with little head. aroma is very thick with honey. flavor at first isnt much to it, but as it warms the honey really comes out. didnt get much orange though. Thursday, July 3, 2014
fluffy	3 Brewers' Tasting Room / Florida Beer Pierced Navel BPA aroma and flavor are huge on banana for some reason. a bit of orange comes through, but man, that banana. whew. Monday, June 2, 2014
hopscotch	4 Brewers' Tasting Room / Cycle / J. Wakefield Collaboration IPA Draft... This beer rocks!… Hazy amber pour with orange highlights and a large, frothy, white head that never fully fades. The bouquet delivers boatloads of orange, pineapple mango and mush melon. Big and thick-bodied with tingly carbonation. Bold, bitter, fruity flavor and bitter, rindy, raspy finish. Another world class collaborative ale tapped at Brewer’s Tasting Room! Thursday, May 29, 2014
hopscotch	4.4 Brewers' Tasting Room Pumptoberfest Draft... This beer is hung like a horse!… Pours crystal clear and copper with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Excellent retention. The nose is a marriage of scrumptious pumpkin pie and spicy baked apples. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. The flavor is loaded with winter-spice-rack decadence and there’s a serious, crisp hop bite in both the flavor and the lengthy, spicy, Mojave-dry finish. Awesome brew! Thursday, May 29, 2014
hopscotch	4.1 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield Casual Friday Session IPA Draft... This beer has huge jonks!… Clear amber pour with flashes of gold and a huge, frothy, white head. Great retention. Thick lacing. The aroma is a virtual plethora of tropical fruits. Light to medium-bodied with vigorous carbonation. The flavor is decently balanced although melon-like, tropical-fruity hops win the metaphorical tug-of-war over the nutty, biscuity malts by a narrow margin. Crisp, zippy, clean finish. World class! Thursday, May 29, 2014
Rustyham	3.8 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield Mate Bliss Brown Very thick mate flavor, sweet, malty, slightly spicy. Lots of thick flavor. Enticing. Meaty. Thursday, May 29, 2014
fluffy	2.7 Brewers' Tasting Room / Barley Mow Tampa Bay Beer Week The Patriot i mildly hoppy red wheat ale for TBBW. aroma is mildly bisquity, color is amber. flavor is ok, not super exciting. basically a mild wheat with a bit of amber punch. easy to drink. Monday, May 19, 2014

fluffy	3.8 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield The Sure Thing Imperial Porter J Wakefield does it again. tons of coffee, vanilla, caramelized sugar, hazelnuts, and great dark grain profile. so good. Friday, February 14, 2014
fluffy	2.3 Brewers' Tasting Room Swillworks Red Vulture Mexican Chocolate Stout was a little worried about this one, thinking it would be like Stone’s Crime or Punishment, but wasnt terrible. a lot if cinnamon in the aroma and initial flavor, the heat sort of lingers in the aftertaste on the tongue. its good for what it is, but i wouldnt want a full glass of it.

brystmar	4 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield / New Belgium Starfruit Saison Hazy amber-gold color with plenty if off-white head/lace. Smells like a malt-forward Belgian golden ale. Spicy and smooth, borrows heavily from the Belgian Strong Pale style, mild fruit at the end becomes more emboldened as this warms. Carb is perfectly dialed in. Sessionable -- especially for a 7% saison -- and quite well-made. Glad I’m a JWB OG. Monday, January 6, 2014
fluffy	2.8 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield Mate Bliss Brown good lord, this was sweet. tons of brown sugar and nuttiness, heavy on the malts, sweet and oily finish. good, but lord was it sweet. Saturday, October 12, 2013
fluffy	3 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield El Jefe Coconut Hefeweizen boy, coconut is right. at least it smells of real coconut, not suntan lotion, which is what i was afraid it was going to be. flavor has it as well, though its not crazy over the top. you can still get some banana and clove in it. a neat take on the style. Saturday, October 12, 2013
fluffy	2.4 Brewers' Tasting Room Bad Badger Hefeweizen this was more bitter than i would have preferred for a hefe, and i didnt really get the usual bubblegum/clove notes, though a little banana was detectable. was ok, but not sure its a traditional hefe as listed. Saturday, October 12, 2013
fluffy	3 Brewers' Tasting Room / J. Wakefield CTC Brown contract beer @BTR. pours translucent dark brown with decent off white head. aroma is brown sugar, some sweet spicing, a little buttery. flavor is quite sweet again of brown sugar, some nuttiness in the background, some mid roast maltiness. its not bad, just too sweet for me. Saturday, October 12, 2013
Lubiere	2.9 Brewers' Tasting Room Lil Thrill A golden ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, fruity caramel malt with floral hops, light solvents. In mouth, a grassy caramel malt with grassy hops, light solvent and off notes. Friday, July 5, 2013
