Chris Raque is drinking a Double Homestyle by Bearded Iris Brewing
Bills itself as a hazy but it's got a lot of tropical fruit taste and a bitter backend. Haven't had it in a while and I think it's not quite as good as I remember, but hey it's a complex 8+% abv

Chris Raque is drinking a Golden Hoof by 3 Floyds Brewing at The Beer Trappe
Pretty nice light, pillowy witbier, pleasant to drink. Yeasty, with a very light banana taste with a good bit of lemon and orange peel, with some coriander. Great for a hot day. Which it wasn't but you get the idea.

Chris Raque is drinking an Abt 12 by Brouwerij St.Bernardus
Bonus points for being 10% abv. It has a very red wine taste. Grape notes all over the place. Wish it was a little more complex. I can't help but compare it to rochefort which I prefer.

Chris Raque is drinking a Party Tricks IPA by AleSmith Brewing Company at The Beer Trappe
It was ok. A little more tropical and passion fruit than I was hoping, given it was a West coast, I was in the mood for something a little more piney and resiny. Pretty light and sweet, with faint bitterness. Went down smooth but probably won't get again

This was one of the most unique beers I've had in years. Triple dry hopped and SUPER peppery. Almost a smoky, burnt hop taste that fills your nose. Orange, pine, and fruit taste beneath the pepper. I really don't think I've ever had a beer quite like this
