Jim Merkelson is drinking a Hefeweizen by Guilford Hall Brewery at The White Oak Tavern
More banana pudding than banana + clove. Very little clove I can detect. An unexpected vanilla note that is doesn’t seem like an off flavor. I just prefer clove.

Clean, easy drinking with a pleasant touch of sweetness. Very easy drinking for a Marzen.

Jim Merkelson is drinking a Mango Foeder Fiend by 3 Floyds Brewing at Untappd at Home
I like 3 Flyods. This does taste like a sour wild ale with a hint of mango. But to me, this is heart burn in a bottle.

Jim Merkelson is drinking an Ube Arcana by Peabody Heights Brewery at Peabody Heights Brewery
I like this place but this far exceeded my expectations. Unbelievably good. Nutty, perfect sweetness. Compare to Gunner’s Daughter? Bravo
Heavy handed on the winter spices. Full of flavor.
