Review: Breckenridge Brewery Christmas Ale

Ok, somewhat average Christmas Ale. The sweet taste is maybe a bit too strong, has a good finish without much of an aftertaste.

Review: Samuel Smith's Winter Welcome Ale

I have now received several "guest reviews" on this one, all of which state that is an awesome ale and that I needed to try it again. With further research I have found that I really like this seasonal Ale. Has a great malt flavor, that manages to not be over bearing.

Review: Great Divide Arapahoe Amber Ale

Really Nice Ale. Smooth, mildly sweet.

Review: The Bruery Black Orchid

This Belgian Dark Ale was really surprising. For a dark beer it had a very light taste, very unique flavor and smell.

Review: Great Lakes Blackout Stout

Awesome stout, nothing bad to say , A very strong stout without the burnt aftertaste.

Review: Great Divide Bee Sting Honey Ale

I am a big Honey beer fan so you will see a lot of these types of beers show up here. The Bee sting is a very good honey ale not too much honey a nice overall flavor.

Review: Samuel Smith's Organically Produced Ale

Very tasty full bodied ale. Caramel malt taste with a little bit of a hop thing going on. Smooth finish.

Review: Samuel Smith's Old Brewery Pale Ale

Nice light tasting ale. Nice malt flavor with a little fruitiness, but still a very balanced taste.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. Hefeweizen


Smooth Taste, Smooth Finish. Not too "wheaty". Blue Moon could learn something.....

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. E.S.B.

Also a very balanced taste. Smooth flavor with a hint of a scotch ale.

Review: Left Hand Brewing Co. Deep Cover Brown Ale

Good taste, smooth finish, but somehow mildly disappointing. I am always searching for an American Brown Ale that can stand up with Newcastle.

Review: Jamesport Brewing Co. Altbier


Very tasty traditional ale. Great balanced hop flavor.

Review: Chimay Bleue "Blue" Ale

Chimay is the Belgian Ale by which all others are measured. Lots of debate between the "Red" and "Blue" as to which is better. My personal preference is for the Blue. Great taste, very complex.
