Chad W. is drinking a Ginger & Oak Kombucha by Flying Embers at City of Glendale
Wild funky aroma! Savory? Salty? Body is sweeter than anything else, with barely a hint of spicy oak, a hint of sharp carb & funk, with a lot of honey sweetness in the finish. I like it!

Chad W. is drinking a Game of Thrones: My Watch Has Ended by Brewery Ommegang at City of Glendale
Maple aroma is bright & lovely. Body is rich, sweet maple, with a hint of chocolate in the finish. The finish is lingering & sticky. Funny enough… it could be boozier?

Chad W. is drinking a Traveller IPA by Intrepid Brewing Company at The Roar Room
Subtle aroma, with a subtle citrus sweetness & body. But it’s enjoyable, drinkable, & it’s possibly not even the same beer that I’m checking in. But it’s close for now!!

Chad W. is drinking a Freddie Murkury by Mikkeller Brewing San Diego at City of Glendale
Boozy, subtle mimosa aroma. The body is equally subtle, with boozy notes, juicy citrus & sweetness, & a pretty hot finish. I think Freddy was stronger, more powerful, more unique… than this beer. But that’s just me… and I want it all! YES YES!!!

Chad W. is drinking a Monk'd Up: Belgian Tripel (Burbank) by Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant at Gordon Biersch - Burbank
No aroma? But a nice, boozy forward body, followed by sweet caramel covered apples, hint of clove & spice in the finish, & a lingering sugary caramel sweetness in the finish. Nice, if not very much more sweet than if like.

Chad W. is drinking a Bobtoberfest by Heater Allen Brewing at City of Glendale
Pretty damned hazy. But the aroma has nice esters, although a bit off style? A hint of clove too. The body is full, with a lovely sweet bread flavor, a hint of dark fruit, it’s pretty excellent… then the clove hits you. So overwhelming & off putting. Damn
Chad W. is drinking an Invitation To Party by Revision Brewing Company at City of Glendale
Subtle mimosa aroma; lightly boozy & lightly citrusy. Body is subtle, juicy, Creamy sweet, round. It’s nice & drinkable, light creamy feel. Definitely an orangesicle flavor. Quite nice, if not a little lackluster.
Chad W. is drinking a Stone Enjoy By 01.01.20 Unfiltered IPA by Stone Brewing at City of Glendale
Subtle pine aroma, more subtle than usual. Nice round citrus feel & sweetness, a little boozy on the finish. I would try again for sure, as this growler was filled quite a while ago. Auto good, but might be brighter if fresher.

Chad W. is drinking a Saturday’s Are For The Brews by Lead Dog Brewing at City of Glendale
Massive, clean, bright pine & citrus hop aroma. Wonderful, like a face full of hops. Body is bright carb up front, citrusy sweetness, & then a juicy body & a dry finish. Light hint of resinous pine in the very finish is lovely. So well done

Chad W. is drinking a Smithwick's by Guinness at Buckaroos
The aroma is cigarettes, cause of this dive bar. The body is light, sweet, cherry fruit. Nice, dive bar, beer time.
Purchased at Buckaroos
Subtle aroma is estery, a bit of sugared lemon. Body has a bright carbonation, a lovely subtle candied lemon sweetness, with a bright, dry, yeast and ester finish. It’s well balanced, unique, and drinkable. Love it.
