Nice body, could definitely stand an uptick on the ABV but has a sweet cereal maltiness, almost a creaminess to it with subtle lingering alcohol. Heck yeah

Thick and rich. Feels more like 8.5%. Malt dominate. Caramel goodness.

Pretty decent. Mellow and pretty full for 6.6%

Last had 4 weeks ago. It’s actually pretty decent now. Nice hop character and even though it still attacks the palette is manageable

Smoke is there for sure but not much body for it to be a porter. Also some tannins from the oak chips.

It’s been a minute since I’ve had this but it’s much more refined now. Aroma is fantastic. Lemon zest is prominent. This style needs bottle conditioning for sure. About 6 months in the bottle.

Great aroma. Some passion fruit on the nose. Taste is dry and bitter.

Slight orange flavor. Not much to it but that might be the Covid palate still in effect.

Wee bit dry but I remember almost some peach and melon on the nose. Still pretty good

Sigh….Another fermentation that got too dry. With all of the bitterness I was hoping for a good malt backbone with some sweetness from the malt but the low finishing gravity made this sucker quite dry. Maybe it will mellow. Not bad but not what I wanted.

Brewed for the 4th of July. Split batch with the pseudo lager but then hopped the whirlpool and dry hopped it. No bitterness but juicy hop flavors on a lager body. Kinda strange actually.

Brewed for a big ole July 4th party. Only had a couple pours before it was gone. I remember it being crushable and super clean with the Lutra yeast. Would brew again.

4 months old in the bottle. Holding up well.

This first batch fermented too dry. Threw some passion fruit at it and it got a little tart. Let it sit for a while and it turned out decent.

Super fruity at first due to the dry hop but very easy to get thru a pint. Not mad at it for sure. A little darker than expected.
