nuplastikk	3 Ale Asylum Beerio 12oz can. More gimmicky, classless label art from AA. Perhaps a little faded hop wise two months out, but still a reasonable enough APA. Balanced, classical, and a rather unimpressive offering overall. Wednesday, July 7, 2021

alexsdad06	3.5 Ale Asylum Ambergeddon This is a backlog rating from 2007 from a bottle picked up in travels, from notes. When I had this beer it was average to below average for the style and not something I wanted to have again or I just didn't get back to my notes because of my technology at the time, work and/or family. Words to describe this beer are caramel, orange citrus, grass, herbal. Monday, April 19, 2021
drpimento	3.6 Ale Asylum Traditional Pilsner In the can the aromas are melon and stone fruit hops but in the glass that disappears and in their place is resin and dry grain.

Drjohnrock	3.4 Ale Asylum Fvck Covid 2.0 From 16 ounce can purchased at Root Cellar, tasted on January 16, 2021. Hazy orange hue, strong aroma of resin and grapefruit, good bittersweet flavor with same elements as the nose with hop bitterness and some mustiness. A bit of astringency doesn't distract much. I guess I'm not impervious to hype since I bought this beer mostly because of the name. Having said that, it's a decent brew. Sunday, January 31, 2021
ads135	3.8 Ale Asylum Motörhead Röad Crew Very decent APA. Grapefruit and apple, some lightly grassy hops. Really quite approachable. Floral finish. Can from Spirit World in 2021. Sunday, January 31, 2021

cheap	2 Ale Asylum Fvck Covid 2.0 Yes, its a sign of the times. Scare everybody, make fear! $3 at JRs for the pounder can as pictured. Nose is somewhat friendly mild hop olfactory. Taste is a fairly strong initiation that tries to be IPA but never gets there. The eye on this is lighter hazy pale that makes me think of a NEIPA. Its almost muddy; certainly more muddy than the average NEIPA. Yes, after each slug is a medium long bitter feeling in the back of the throat. At least there is some co2 in there to make it almost refreshing. Of course we all know that in an old successful euro country empire, a V was really pronounce like a U.......Go figger. Lets give all those who have made a living publicizing this fvck-demic the middle finger! An american country boy can survive. Wednesday, December 30, 2020
mcjay	4.1 Ale Asylum Apocalypse Bingo: Murder Hornet Pale Ale Pours a hazy orangish golden color with a creamy white head. Has a very tropical aroma with hints of pineapple, banana and orange. The flavor is juicy and bold with notes of citrus fruits. There must have been an abundance of the trio of hops used in this beer because the flavor just bursts right from the get go and the aroma is so strong you'd swear fruit was added to this brew. Very smooth and delicious. Wednesday, December 30, 2020
nuplastikk	3.6 Ale Asylum Apocalypse Bingo: Murder Hornet Pale Ale 12oz can. Quite an intense strawberry tone, truly different hop tone. Not sure if it is the Trident or just the general combination or if there is even flavoring added. Soft wheat and oat tones, easy drinking, no bitterness. Quite an odd candy strawberry ,peach, guava aroma. Unique. Wednesday, December 23, 2020
