Dirty Helen Tavern Style Brown Ale - This pours a very dark brown with a hint of ruby and a half inch head which does lace the glass. The aroma is more hoppy than I would expect from a brown ale but has a nice roasted malt in it as well. This has a nice roasted coffee malt flavor, with some floral, fruit hops, although less than I expected from the aroma. There is a hint of sweet and a hint of sour. The beer is unfiltered so some of the sour is from the yeast I believe. An interesting and very flavorful take on a brown ale.
Sheet Metal Blonde - A Belgian style wheat ale brewed with herb and spices. Pours pure golden with a massive head. The aroma is yeasty, a bit fruity, metallic like grain in a cold metal bucket on a late fall day. It tastes like honey and fruit, with a hint of spice, and a very crisp, fizzy mouthfeel.
