BeerRenter76	2.7 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA Tried out of the can while on vacation in New Mexico last week. Faint citrus/ grassy hops with a bit of cereal, smooth, easy to drink but a middle of the pack session IPA. Tuesday, August 30, 2016

Livendadream	2.4 Kellys Brewpub Apricot Ale Can pours hazy golden color, tight white head vanishes quickly leaving minimal lace. Aromas of apricot and peach. Taste of sweet hard candies and artificial apricot flavoring. Light body, watery mouthfeel,under carbonated with a medicinal finish on the tongue. I don’t think I can drink another one. The fake fruit flavors paired with the extremely light body make this almost undrinkable. Monday, August 17, 2015
CObiased	3 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA Thursday, February 5, 2015
Ctplt777	2.2 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA It’s okay. Theres a grassy aroma but thats really I can pull out of it. Taste is kind oniony garlic. Dry and bitter. It’s kind of a middle of the road session ipa. I have had a lot worse. Wednesday, December 24, 2014
Kevin	3.2 Kellys Brewpub Belgian Pale Ale Yeast shines in this. Bread with a light nutmeg spice.sweet background with just a bit of mild bitter to balance it. Bit of banana in the spiced nose. A nice beer with lunch. Tuesday, November 18, 2014
travita	2.5 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA Can. The look is a white lacing head, clear, and bronze in color. The smell is noble hops, paper, malt, and floral. The taste is the same, sandpaper, not that good. Sunday, August 31, 2014
jkwalking05	2.8 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA 12 oz can. Amber with an average sized white head. Aroma is of pine, leaves, moss, caramel, and herbs. Taste is of leaves, caramel, herbal hops, and light grass. Sunday, August 31, 2014
travita	2.9 Kellys Brewpub Amber Can. The look is clear, amber in color, and has an off white head. The smell is malt, dirt, paper, cardboard, and ok. The taste is much the same, a bready sweetness. Sunday, August 31, 2014
jkwalking05	3.1 Kellys Brewpub Amber 12 oz can. Amber in color with an average off-white head. Aroma is of leaves, earth, and malt. Taste is of malt, light pear, leaves, light herbs, and earth. Sunday, August 31, 2014
BeerdedDave	1.5 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA 12 oz can; amber color; odd aroma - hoppy, but with buttery notes - kind of fruity; light with a mild hop flavor and sweet, buttery notes that don’t belong in an IPA Wednesday, August 13, 2014
Livendadream	2.5 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA Can pours hazy glowing copper yellow color. Big white fluffy head thats turns into big bubbles that lingers for a while leaving the weirdest lace I have seen. Almost like spiderwebs. Light floral smells with candy(butterscotch), and buttered popcorn aromas. Taste of lightly sweet malt and candy. Light body, watery mouthfeel,medium carbonation with a lightly bitter dry finish. I don’t feel like this beer is balanced. No real malt flavor here and the hops overwhelm the beer. Sunday, April 13, 2014
Terminus	3 Kellys Brewpub IPA Tap at brewpub april 2014 Pours a wierd murky orange hue with a small soaly white head and good lacing from tbe start. Nose is mostly cascade grapefruit and diacytl smells very dirty and just not very good. Flavors are very big grapefruit and really nothing else. Very dirty resinous grapefruit seems very dirty and sloppy. Finish is big grapefruit and lingering strong rinds bitterness. A sloppy old skool ipa that needs update and work. Saturday, April 12, 2014
Livendadream	2.7 Kellys Brewpub Amber Can pours hazy amber brown color with a small head and big bubbles. It vanishes to a ring around edge of glass leaving spots of lace. Light smell of toffee,grains, must and earth. Tastes of medium sweet toffee, and a hint of hops. Light body, smooth texture, mild carbonation and tingling dry finish. While this beer is easy to drink, the flavors lack depth. Nothing stands out in this ale. The body is way to light and the hop flavor is non existent. Overall it is just an ordinary beer. Would be a good gateway beer for people getting into craft beers. Monday, April 7, 2014
Terminus	2.4 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA can purchased at celebrate in las cruces, nm april 2014 Pours bright orange with a small soapy white head. nose is awful huge diacytl bomb! flavors of bitter diacytl. this is terrible. why did i spend $9 for a 6pk of this? total mess and will be lost in the mix of awesome beers available in NM. really minty bitterness here with lingering daicytl and some sweetness. ugh its bad. Sunday, April 6, 2014
SoylentBlack	3 Kellys Brewpub Session IPA I like the taste of this canned ale better than the Kellys’ IPA on tap at the brewpub. No real head to speak of, slight medicine odor and palate. Light orange/gold color. I doubt this will get much distribution outside of New Mexico, and this is gonna have a hard time competing with the other packaged IPAs in Albuquerque.

Djosher	4 Kellys Brewpub IPA Wednesday, September 11, 2013
Caytinator	3.3 Kellys Brewpub Brewnette 1/2 pint at the brewpub. Dark brown color, almost chestnut, and clear-ish. Toasted malts are the predominant taste, as well as coffee. It’s bitter, but not excessively dry. Not bad! Wednesday, December 5, 2012
VTENGINEER	1.5 Kellys Brewpub IPA Pint, on tap. Poured Amber, light head, pleasant carbonation. Smells of bitter hops, tastes the same the whole way through, lightens in the back. Light for the style, in flavor and ABV. Good with the Ruben, though. Wednesday, July 4, 2012
Oakes	1.6 Kellys Brewpub Oatmeal Stout Light brown - way too light. The aroma is barely there. The palate is extract wonkiness with no roast and not much else I’d be looking for in a stout either. I have no idea what this is, but it’s not an oatmeal stout and I don’t want to drink any more. Tuesday, October 25, 2011
Oakes	1.9 Kellys Brewpub IPA I had something called ’Session IPA’ - not sure if this is the same. Hazy straw-tan. Funky, dirty aroma. Light hop bitterness. Extracty and flawed, though the hops cover it up at least a little bit. Monday, October 24, 2011
LilBeerDoctor	3.3 Kellys Brewpub Apricot Ale On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear golden yellow with a thick white head. Aroma of perfumy apricot. Flavor of sweet, still perfumy apricot and light wheat malt. Very sweet, certainly artificially sweet. Ok overall because it was drinkable, but otherwise not great. 6/4/7/3/13 [3.3/5] Tuesday, July 5, 2011
LilBeerDoctor	3.6 Kellys Brewpub Imperial Stout On tap at the brewpub. Pours black with a thick pretty tan head. Aroma of roasted, sweet malt. Flavor of roasted malt, a hint of chocolate, hint of pretzel, hint of charred malt, and lots of sweet malt. Ok, a basic imperial stout but nothing too special. 7/4/7/4/14 [3.6/5] Tuesday, July 5, 2011
LilBeerDoctor	3.6 Kellys Brewpub Belgian Pale Ale On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear orange with a thick white head. Aroma of sweet pale malts and sweet fruits, jam. Flavor of bready malts with a light sweet maltiness, some floral hops. Definitely on the sweet side, I didn’t really get any Belgian notes though. 7/4/7/4/14 [3.6/5] Tuesday, July 5, 2011
LilBeerDoctor	3.7 Kellys Brewpub Extra Special Bitter On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear light orange with a thick white head. Aroma of floral hops, sweet fruits, jam, and bready malt. Flavor of bitter hops and pale malts with some mild fruity notes too. Its pretty hoppy for an ESB and reminds me more of a pale ale. Good stuff though. 7/4/8/4/14 [3.7/5] Tuesday, July 5, 2011
jcwattsrugger	3.6 Kellys Brewpub Oatmeal Stout on tap-pours a light brown head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-roasty/nutty/chocolate. Taste is oat/dark malt-roasty/nutty/chocolate/molasses, secondary earthy hops. Porter-ish. Tuesday, July 5, 2011
