Paul Bouthilet is drinking a Hopnosis by Firestone Walker Brewing Company at Hollywood Heights

Not necessarily a juicy IPA, but very similar. Flavor elements encompass various tropical fruits. I believe this beer is double dry hopped and as such the bitterness of the hops is subdued and aromatic flavors associated with the fruits enhanced. This **

Paul Bouthilet is drinking a Cali Cruiser by Firestone Walker Brewing Company at Hollywood Heights

Wonderful juicy west coast IPA. Full mouthfeel with little or no bitterness. Smooth and easy drinking. I can actually taste the pineapple and the flavor lingers on the tongue throughout the swallow. Excellent beer.

Paul Bouthilet is drinking a Haze Wizard by 3 Nations Brewing at Hollywood Heights

Initial sip yielded a mouthful of flavors. Foremost was the abundant hoppiness which was well tempered with an almost yeasty taste that eliminated nearly all bitterness. Citrusy flavors are also evident and combined with the smooth juiciness says one more

See prior checkin for an explanation of the can art. Now to what's inside the can. Excellent amber but heavier on the malt than anticipated. Smooth and sweet with an abundant mouthful taste. Thanks Alex.

Excellent oatmeal Stout. Full bodied, with a strong chocolate flavor. Not particularly creamy but the texture is very smooth. My son just returned from skiing in Colorado and brought back this beer. Thanks Alex.

Paul Bouthilet is drinking a Shiner Cerveza De Verano by Spoetzl Brewery at Hollywood Heights

Very good beer. Somewhat sweet but extremely smooth. Mellowness is enhanced by the agave flavor. Modest ABV of 4.5% and 20 IBU contributes to a tasty drinkable brew. Back in Dallas and enjoying its nice weather.

Paul Bouthilet is drinking an Adiós Pantalones by Rahr & Sons Brewing Company at Hollywood Heights

Wasn't sure what to expect from this beer. About what I thought; not much of a distinctive taste. Although the lemon and lime flavors are evident they appear to mask anything that might appeal to one's taste buds. Perhaps better suited to hot weather.

Paul Bouthilet is drinking The Boot by Abita Brewing Company at Hollywood Heights

Back in Dallas at The Beer Tree. Crisp with a sweet malty flavor. Subtle fruit (apple) taste/aroma accented with a light hoppiness. Beer sold only in Louisiana, but my son traded a 6 pack of Spotted Cow for a 6 pack of this beer and saved 1 for me.
