Devil's Elbow IPA - This is a 6% ABV beer that is dry-hopped. The beer pours a copper-amber-burnt orange in color, somewhat hazy. There is a quarter-inch of creamy off-white foam that leaves layers of lacing down the glass. The aroma is floral, grassy and tangy, with a touch of yeast. The taste is unique, like grassy oatmeal with a floral aftertaste. This is a strange blend of malt and hops. The finish is quite dry and bitter.
Garibaldi Honey Pale Ale - This 5.0% ABV beer pours a slightly hazy dark golden in color with a short head of pure white foam. The aroma is strong grain, the sweet floralness of honey and a light tart note. The taste follows the aroma directly. This is a solid beer, not a standout in any way, but no negatives and nice to drink.
Rail Ale Nut Brown - This 5.0% ABV beer pours a very, very dark brown in appearance, almost black. There is a quarter-inch of light brown head. The aroma is roasted and toasted malt, nutty, hazelnuts, a bit of a sour note in the back. The taste is dark roasted malt, nutty, a touch of coffee, slightly sweet; the taste is even better than the aroma. A very dark brown ale, both in appearance and dark roasted taste. Good.
