Schilling Cider Auburn, Washington

Pretty straightforward passionfruit mango over apple cider actually the passion fruit and mango come out a little bit stronger than the Apple. Drinkable.

Spoetzl Brewery (Gambrinus Company) Shiner, Texas

24 oz bottle served in a tumbler- poured a solidly murky brown color, 3mm foamy dark tan head formed and lasted through the tasting. Aroma of yeast, raspberries, and I guess dewberries- had to look that one up. Hits the mouth with a light body, very tart sensation at the start, middle holds up well with a touch of sweetness, finish goes back to tart with blackberries in the background. Solid- guess Shine is trying to get on the fringe market- good for them!

Hell's Basement Medicine Hat, Alberta

Can - Strawberry ice cream. Clearish gold with a decent white head. Strawberry, perfume, grass and some grains with a bit of bitterness in the finish. Odd, but I can say it is reasonably well executed.

Tin Dog Brewing Seattle, Washington

Tan-orange brew with a decent head. Nice allspice and clove (probably from the yeast) nose. On the palate this one is allspice, ginger, and pumpkin spice power over a medium-bodied malt backbone.

Fuller's Chiswick, Greater London

Aroma: floral hop dominates. honey. toasty malt. really soothing and gentle. not much spice as it mentioned. Appearance: orange amber color, little off-white head Taste: moderate toasty, malty sweetness balanced with moderate intensity of floral hop. only mild bitterness the finish. Palate: medium body, weak carbonation, very comfortable when it goes through. Overall: It's a well-balanced, very drinkable English IPA. It is gentler and a great option especially when you get bored with American hop-bombs.

Decadent Ales Mamaroneck, New York

Aroma is sweet ne fruit/tropical fruit and dank hops. The flavor is citrus/tropical fruit, malts, mild sweetness and a dank hop/warming alcoholic finish.

Sierra Nevada Brewing Company Chico, California

Can from Beer Cartel on 21 October 2018. Poured a really vibrant golden orange colour and looks more like a Golden Ale than a Pilsner. Earthy musky aroma which is pleasant. This beer has more body to it than I was expecting.

Modern Times Beer San Diego, California

16 oz can. Pours hazy golden with a thick bone-white head with excellent retention. Aroma initially has light notes of mango, passionfruit, citrus peel, but it opens up considerably as it warms. Taste is lightly bittersweet with lots of juicy hop flavor. Excellent.

Jackie O's Pub & Brewery Athens, Ohio

Very dark brown pour, tan head. Aroma of butterscotch, caramel and fruit. Taste follows, with prune and candied sugar. Absolutely fantastic.

Reuben's Brews Seattle, Washington

Brassy body, decent head. Mild pumpkin nose. The body is a spiced alcohol elixir that would benefits from more malting and subtelty.

Strange Roots Experimental Ales Millvale, Pennsylvania

Hazy white-gold pour. Aroma of apple, peach, and hay. Taste follows, with berries and barnyard.

Harpoon Brewery Boston, Massachusetts

strong coffee aroma. pitch black in color with huge long lasting brown head. taste is strongly of coffee, light roasted barley, faint milk chocolate

Casey Brewing and Blending Glenwood Springs, Colorado

Hazy white-gold pour, small white head. Aroma of apricot, nectarine, and pear. Taste follows, sweet and tart.

Main Street Brewing (BC) Vancouver, British Columbia

Nice foam and a cloudy gold liquid. Smells of soft peach skins. Flavour is light wheat dough and some vague citrus on the back end. Medium finish. Not bad at all for a hefe but there is nothing here especially unique.

Dominion City Brewing Co. Ottawa, Ontario

Pours foggy light straw gold with a small white wisp. Aroma is light citrus and a little grassy malt. Taste is citrus hops with some floral notes. Light malt gives a little body.
