kassner	2.7 Reclamation The Double Again a clear sewer not in fragrance and finish, I real shame. Maybe the lines, maybe the glasses but this was not good and this off note was most pronounced in the DIPA, which is my favorite style. Sunday, February 17, 2019
kassner	2.7 Reclamation Everyman's Red Ale Of all the beers I tried this was the best of a poor bunch, closest to style without too many off notes, still there was a note that can only be described as sewer. I really hope they can improve with time. Sunday, February 17, 2019

cheap	1.7 Reclamation Indomitable I have not figured out why ratebeerians love barrel aged beer. If you want whiskey, drink it, if you want beer, drink it, why flavor beer with a whiskey barrel? BTW imperial stout is not my thing either so if you like impy stout, flip my numbers and get this, it’s unusually on terrible style. Big & black. Big choco moose head. Whisky is palatably present all over. Mouth coating impy stout, kicks you in the jaw. Volatile. Way too much for this lager lover. Just way too much. I detect a tad of tartness but that may be my mind going dizzy towards the end of this glass, whew. Nasty nellie rototiller smack you in the face right here on route 8! Wednesday, December 28, 2016
cheap	1.9 Reclamation Sweet Christmas! Look, I’m not a fan of spiced holiday brews but if you are, you must try this. Reddish orange & pale. Barely any nose, surprising since it is so spiced up. Taste is quite sweet and the spices are not over the top and in yer face. However, they are certainl present as they override the beer characters. Some decent co2 and the spices become a little volatile in the middle. Just can’t get used to this style but I thought i’d give it a try anyhow. Yes, better than the average holiday brew. Wednesday, December 28, 2016
cheap	2 Reclamation Curtain Call Look, I’m not a fan of IPA, so flip my numbers if you are. Pale clear beer. Perhaps there is a tad of orange in the eye as well. Ever so slight hop perfume nose. Yes, typical IPA. Hoppy with an inclination of of bitter hops abound. Belgian infrequence is hard to detect, simply a terribly on style IPA. Quite fresh. Fairly flat. Wednesday, December 28, 2016
cheap	2.6 Reclamation Smokey Maple Porter Tap at the source. Aesthetics is big & black and large & in-charge. Slight sweet maple syrup nose. Mild stout aromas as well. First taste is a little bit of smoked beer. Maple is quite apparent on the first taste, seems to have lots of unfermented sugar in there. This is all on a backbone of old damp partially burned campfire wood. Somewhat volatile in the middle. Not bad overall but the maple sweetness almost makes it a little cloying, but never quite gets there. Wednesday, December 28, 2016
cheap	3.1 Reclamation Kolsch Tap at source. Slight haze on a pale beer. Hay flavors from the start. Not bad! Easy to take, a very mild brew that hides its alky content rather well. Some citrus but not bitter. Friendly and easy going, could drink a few of these. Good manners and a clean fresh beery aroma. Wednesday, December 28, 2016
cheap	3.2 Reclamation Valley of the Dry Bones Bocktown tap. Cloudy pale cider. I think I detect an every so slight hint of cinnamon on top of the tart apple nose. Good tart initial feel on this one. Much better than my own home brewed dry cider. even tho its fermented out without much if any sugar left, this stuff really comes across enjoyable with a nice tart, perhaps granny smith, tartness. A real example of what a balanced dry cider should be. Good job! Thursday, October 6, 2016
jsporrer	2.5 Reclamation Belgian Raspberry Wheat Pours a hazy orange amber with a medium sized head of white foam. Taste is fairly harsh and not very tasty. Not nearly s good as I expected it to be. Saturday, August 6, 2016
rondphoto	3.2 Reclamation Promised Land Imperial Ale on tap @ Reclamation / Butler PA --- Cloudy medium / light amber, off-white head, strips of lace. Taste is caramel malt that moves through crisp carbonation to light hops. The carbonation provides edginess, but the rest moves smoothly from one thing to the next. The alcohol is muted. Thursday, July 28, 2016
rondphoto	2.9 Reclamation Egan's Irish Stout on tap @ Reclamation / Butler PA --- Aroma of malt. Opaque black with a tan head that sinks to a full rim, sheets of lace. Taste is light malt that cruises through light fizz to a finish that introduces an odd nut flavor. The end is stronger than the beginning, and moves away from what is otherwise a solid Stout. Thursday, July 28, 2016
rondphoto	3.5 Reclamation The Double on tap @ Reclamation / Butler PA --- Clear medium amber, ivory head that drops to the rim, sheets of lace. Taste is caramel malt that dumps into solid fizz and hops, moving to a long alcohol warmed finish. Awfully big and full of alcohol, but still well-conceived and balanced. Thursday, July 28, 2016
FROTHINGSLOSH	4.1 Reclamation Nephilim Sampled on draft at Bocktown this beer poured a murky tan-brown color with a medium sized creamy off whitehead that left good lacing. The aroma was toffee, yeast, dough and vague fruity hops. The flavor was sweet fruity hops, toffee, yeast, sugar, pineapple and ginger. Long finish with some alcohol showing through. Full bodied. Excellent. Friday, July 22, 2016
Foxbush	3.6 Reclamation The Double Draft at the Brewpub This was the best of four tasted. The ale poured a clear amber color with a small head . The Double had special lacing down the glass. The ale has nice hop bitterness on the tongue. The medium body ale has average carbonation. Another ale that warms to you as you consume the beer. if I wasn’t driving I would had another. Wednesday, July 13, 2016
Foxbush	3.4 Reclamation Promised Land Imperial Ale Draft at the brewpub in Butler. The ale poured a clear amber color with a small head and lacing. The ale had a medium body with soft carbonation. The 8% ABV was very deceptive. This ale does warm up to you as you consume the beverage. It was the surprise of the 4 beers tasted. You detect apples in the taste. Wednesday, July 13, 2016
Nate	3.5 Reclamation 4x4 On tap at the brewery. Mild hop nose with a bit of lactose sweetness or carbonic gaseousness. Light herbal quality. Medium golden-amber clear with light haze, topped with creamy-foamy white lacing head. Medium body with medium-heavy carbonation. Starts lightly sweet, with pale malt, medium hop character, and nice herbal spruce notes. Finish is mildly bitter with spruce and juniper berries. After taste reminds me of having eaten Pop Rocks. Sunday, July 3, 2016
Nate	3.5 Reclamation Egan's Irish Stout Sampled on nitro at the brewery. Nice roasted nutty aroma, with coffee and chocolate, and a bit of molasses. Dark black-brown clear with thin head. Medium body on nitro. Starts with light sweetness, nutty with chocolate, molasses, coffee. Mild hop bitterness and a touch of char. Nice Irish stout. Sunday, July 3, 2016
Nate	2.8 Reclamation Lime Goes-Uh Sampled at the brewery. Nose of lime and salt, but combination comes off as goaty and even vomitous. Clear pale straw with thin white head. Medium body with medium carbonation. Big immediate hit of lime juice and salt ... drop in a shot of tequila and you’d have a margarita. Decent acidity, with carbonic tang. Citrusy tart lime finish with a salty-sweet key lime after. Sunday, July 3, 2016
Nate	3.5 Reclamation Valley of the Dry Bones Sampled at the brewery. Mild apple nose, a bit tart. Hazy pale amber with no head. Medium body with medium carbonation. Nice tart cider, good apple flavors with bright acidity. A little musky. Easy drinking Normandie-style cider. Sunday, July 3, 2016
Nate	2.9 Reclamation Tart Saison Sampled at the brewery. Very light tart aroma, between citric and lactic, maybe with a little apple. Something herbal to it, but I’m not sure from what. Medium copper amber clear with thin head. Medium body with medium-light carbonation. Starts with light tart taste and bit of citrus. Light malt sweetness, no discernible hops. Mild smooth tart finish. Sunday, July 3, 2016
