Review: Harpoon Munich Type Dark Beer

Very nice blend of toasted malts. Good flavor overall and surprisingly not a overly filling beer for a dark ale. You could go through a number of these in a session.

Review: Goose Island Oatmeal Stout

Really like the taste, not a smack you in the head type stout. The flavor is smooth and rich with a little bitterness to set things off.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. "Nitro" Stout

So we thought we were done drinking, but our server Brian insisted our sampling would not be complete without trying the "Nitro" Stout. This is the standard stout in a nitrogen tap. Brian rushed out our drinks the moment they were poured and we found the Stout took on a whole new life. The chocolate and toffee flavors were more prominent and the taste and finish were much smoother.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. Dry Stout

With three of us drinking this Stout we came up with three different impressions, all good. We agree that there is a lot going on with this Stout. All the different flavors stand out without blending. Has a smoky finish.

Review: Chimay Triple Blanche "White" Ale

So as much as I have enjoyed all the other Chimay Ales I did not hit it off with this one. Maybe I got a bad one or maybe they just got me on a bad day.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. English Mild

This was a fairly average English ale with an overly coffee / charcoal taste.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. Kolsch

We enjoyed this smooth, clean somewhat fruity tasting ale. It did however have quite a "wheaty" finish. Not a bad thing if that is to your taste.

Review: Great Lakes Brewing Co. Conway's Irish Ale

Really tasty Ale!!! Always a favorite, sorry it is only available around St. Patrick's Day. Light taste of caramel and hops. A little sweet and hint of citrus.  Watch out for the 6.5% ABV. Courtesy of my friend Ed who was nice enough to drive me down a six all the way from Northern Ohio. Well really thanks to Gerry for driving.

Review: Great Lakes Brewing Co. Dortmunder Gold

This is a really, spectacularly good, lighter beer that I always recommend to my friends who are stuck on the mass produced pilsners. This multiple, multiple, multiple award winner seems to be a good bridge between mass produced beer and the really good beers.

Review: Great Lakes Brewing Co. Burning River Pale Ale

Definitely a "lighter" beer than you might expect. Great flavor without too much of the accompanying pale ale type flavors. I have never been a fan of the fruity flavors that some of the pales end up with.

Review: Brooklyn Brewery Black Chocolate Stout

This very rare seasonal brew was outstanding. This is a milkshake for beer lovers. It is sweet and rich with an outstanding finish. Find this beer!!!!!!!!!!!

Review: Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout

Two Words, Roasted Malt. It takes a minute to set your mouth for this stout but once you get going it is interesting. There is some sort of coffee and caramel blend of flavors going on in there with a mild chocolaty taste hidden in there somewhere. The nice little alcohol tang at the finish is not unpleasant or overbearing.
