stevoj	2.4 Ironworks Green Mountain Pale Ale Tap at brewpub. Good looking beer, goes downhill rapidly hazy amber with creamy head. Apparently no hops in this APA, just malt. Trying to find something of value here...nothing. hockey on the TV is a plus, but doesn’t make the beer better, just distracts from how awful it is.... Wednesday, October 12, 2016
stevoj	2.6 Ironworks Hop Killah IPA Draft at brewpub. Medium amber with minimal head. No aroma, none, whatsoever. Lightly hopped, watery sweet malts. Hops linger. Flavor, not do much.s somebody must have killed the hops, because they’re nowhere to be seen. Wednesday, October 12, 2016

Thursday, November 5, 2015
3fourths	1.8 Ironworks Golden Crisp IPA The definition of faulty beer. Milky pour, diacetyl-dominant flavor of butter and sweat with notes of autolyzed yeast (peanuts, mud) and green apple (acetaldehyde). Sweet and worty and gritty and acidic. Hilariously bad beer in an equally depressing setting. Tuesday, November 3, 2015
