3.4 Alosta Dig Tussy This beer is hilarious. The description is just as it was written on the can: As if spoken with a person with a lisp. Dig=Big. I can guess was Tussy means. Can from Royal Wine in San Jose near Santana Row. High clarity golden color. Vanilla and lactose aroma is weird: Very similar to the omnipresent pastry stouts. Probably well made, but not my bag.

3.3 Alosta Throwing Copper Ale Sample at GABF 10/05/2019, thanks to kathryneels for assistance with note-taking. Slightly hazy dark copper (ha!) color with a medium thin off-white head that recedes quickly to an outer ring. Stringy lace. Aroma of malt, fruit and mild hops. Light-bodied with flavors of caramel malt, stone fruit and mild earthy hop. The finish is sweet with a malty aftertaste. Decent overall. Monday, March 23, 2020 | |

3.4 Alosta Annum 2017 5 oz glass (part of a Flight) in The BrewHouse, San Juan Capistrano on 3rd Jan 2020. Amber/golden body, white head. Strong Bourbon nose and flavours overpower the original beer (not that I have tried it) and take over completely, still enjoyed it though. Saturday, January 4, 2020 | |

2.8 Alosta Sally Backlog from GABF 2016 Clear golden yellow appearance with a white head. Aroma of toasted malt, bread, light earthy/grassy hops and light yeast. Similar flavor, adding light bitterness and a touch of honey malt sweetness. Light body with a thin, watery feel and a light dry finish. Kind of boring overall. Monday, December 19, 2016 | |

3 Alosta Swindler's Spice Pours a medium brown color with a coffee aroma. Taste is light vanilla with a small spiced flavor that tickled the tongue. A little thin in overall complex flavor. After the initial flavor, this beer seemed to thin out and water down. The low ABV might have lent to this, but this beer is a nice everyday drinker. Saturday, February 6, 2016 | |

3.5 Alosta Mrs. Adams Oatmeal Stout A close second for best of the sampler tray. Pours a pretty dark brown and gives off a nice hit of cocoa on the nose. Has a silken mouthfeel from the oats that works with the other flavors quite well. Monday, February 3, 2014 | |

2.6 Alosta Farmhouse Saison Unfortunately, the description doesn’t match the beer I got. Pours a light yellow color with orange tinting. Isn’t very sharp or have a hop finish. I get vanilla notes and more smoothness. It is sort of saison-y but I wouldn’t peg that style in a blind taste test. Monday, February 3, 2014 | |

3 Alosta Swindler Brown Porter Probably the best of the taster tray. Pours quite hazy. A bit unappetizing to look at. The taste is solid though. Not much of anything but malt but it does the job. Monday, February 3, 2014 | |

2.9 Alosta British Pale Ale Good to see a British pale on tap, this pale pours a bright orange color. Very low hop aroma here. Some biscuit notes. Taste is more mineral than anything else. Not bad but not my cup of tea. Monday, February 3, 2014 | |
