Wasatch - Utah Brewers Cooperative (Monster Beverage Corp) Park City, Utah

12lz can picked up at the brewery. Pours dark mahogany with a medium sized beige head, light lacing. Cacao, toffee, fruity, citrus zest. Ok

Banter & Co. Brewing Brooklin, Ontario

Lively Beerworks Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

A 12 oz can bought at Freeman's Liquor, OKC, a few weeks ago. Basic, low tech label, not sure what that means. A local Oklahoma City brewery and beer in any case, time to make a rate. Using a snifter, I pull the tab and pour inside of the glass. A clear, medium yellow body topped with a stout head of fluffy white foam. The scent is fortunately citrus and hops centric. The drink is really pretty all right, maybe more than that. Cedar pine, lemons, honey, resin and malt. A nice DIPA, I would buy again.

Accomplice Beer Company Cheyenne, Wyoming

Draught at the brewery. Pours clear dark amber with a medium, creamy off-white head, long retention with good lacing. Moderate toffee, caramel, and toasted bread malt, light alcohol, medium stone fruit esters, and a medium sweet finish. Full body and medium carbonation.

Wrecking Crew Brew Works Medina, Ohio

Deep amber color out of the tap with a thin beige head. Nose of alcohol and fruity esters. Thick syrupy malts, honey, raisin, dried fruit, and warming alcohol. Very smooth.

Phase Three Brewing Company Lake Zurich, Illinois

Really tasty slightly more sweet than sour fruit beer with a good combination of flavors in aromas. I don't see any possible way that this is a Gose though.

Stoneface Brewing Company Newington, New Hampshire

Pours lightly hazy amber with a two finger, white head. Aroma is caramel, bread and zesty hops. Taste is caramel, moving to bread and lightly spicy, chewy hops. Finish mirrors the taste.

Leadfoot Brewing Chicopee, Massachusetts

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you Tom! Flavor is sweet and malty, toffee up front, leading into weak peat and a light note of scotch. Notes of raisins / caramel. Good texture and mouth. Very respectable.

MAD Brewing Company Medina, Ohio

Dark beer out of the tap with a short beige head. Sweet grainy nose. Molasses and brown sugar sweetness with deep roasted grains, dark chocolate and coffee grounds. Very flavorful.

Rainhard Brewing Co. Toronto, Ontario

[Can (473ml)] Pours a very dark reddish-brown, almost black, with a large long-lasting frothy light-brown head. Aroma of roasted malt and coffee first followed by chocolate and nuts. Nice dry roasted malt flavour along with coffee and some chocolate. Average bodied. Enjoyable and a pretty good version of the style.

Roaring Table Brewing Company Lake Zurich, Illinois

16oz can. Crackery, bready malts. Pleasantly bitter balance. Approaches a true Kolsch a lot closer than most. Clean, well attenuated. Excellent full noble hop tone. Perfectly sessionable medium body.

Twisted District Brew Company Garden City, Idaho

On tap at the brewery pours out cola brown topped with a sand head. Nose is sweet pitfruit notes some leather smoke and roast malts. Taste is more of the sweet malts some spice pitfruit and some smoke.

Midnight Owl Brewing Company Shaker Heights, Ohio

Crowler bought and shared at sisters house. Smell the malt. Dark brown in color. Taste the malt and sweetness. Smooth. Malty aftertaste. Everyone loved this beer! Cheer!

Hop Culture Farms & Brew Co Colchester, Connecticut

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma is mango, mild orange, and perhaps green. Flavor follows. Mild juice like texture with zero bitterness. Pretty much exactly what you would expect.

Palisade Brewing Company Palisade, Colorado

Pint Can. Pours a hazy yellow-ish color with a medium sized white head that slowly recedes. The aroma is big and bold with fresh citrus--I get mangoes, papaya and grapefruit. The taste follows the nose with plenty of mango and papaya. Bitterness is moderate and well balanced. The palate is smooth and crisp. Finishes short and dry with some lingering sweetened grapefruit. Overall: Decent NEIPA, but not exceptional. Very easy drinking. Paired well with some estate gouda.
