Brian C. is drinking an Atomic Garden by Fieldwork Brewing Company at City of El Granada
Not as juicy as I anticipated, but a solid & well built XXIPA with nice complexity and no harsh hop bite anywhere along the way.
Brian C. is drinking a Shoot the Moon by Fieldwork Brewing Company at Fieldwork Brewing Co. Beer Garden
A Citrus Stout? Interesting. I’ll have to come back with a clean palate. Had a hoppy beer prior... still nice, but can’t give proper rating

Brian C. is drinking a Modern Love by Fieldwork Brewing Company at Fieldwork Brewing Co. Beer Garden
I went for something new, a dry hopped lager. I’m not a big dry hopped lager fan, but I like to try again periodically. Still not my thing.

Lots of crossover flavors going on. Kinda like a light black coffee with pumpkin, cinnamon & nutmeg. Tough to get a handle on it...

The biggest pineapple nose ever ever experienced. WAIT, is this pineapple beer? Very juicy pineapple, if a bit on the boozy tasting side.
