Old Ale: 6.0 – It’s a dark and decadent beer, but its a little flat carbonation wise. Overall I am not a fan, but I see how a seasonal change would make this better and more desirable beer.

Oppigards Golden Ale: 4.0 – Not really a great ale, there’s a bit of sweetness to it, and the farmhouse style of yeast does bring something. Overall though it’s unremarkable, and I hope the lager fares better.

If you’ve ever been curious about ‘what if Jim Bean made a 50 dollar whiskey’? Look no further. Then turn back, and run. Run far away. This whiskey is meant for a whiskey sour as it’s got some teeth, but if you are looking for a sipping whiskey, something higher-tier maybe you add a bit of ice? NOPE.
Warka: 2.0 – I can’t tell if this is the strong or not, only the cap said it, but it looks too dark to be the normal. (Please correct us in the comments). That said what a disappointing beer. You get a twinge of sweetness, and minor beer taste. It reminds me of a shitty watered down beer from an English pub when the footballers have already started singing and the bartender doesn’t want trouble. (I know it’s polish)

MO Pale Ale: 7.5 – It’s a beer from Maine named after 2 twin babies born to a brewery, which is about the sweetest Maine-esque thing I can think of. The beers not sweet though it is properly hoppy, but isn’t bitter at all which would ruin it. It’s a great pale ale.

With the recent success of Hanger 1 we figured it was time to try another under-used region of the world and see if their offering was up-to-snuff. What we found was good, but just not in the same batting range. Ravo has a lot about that’s good, but there’s no single element that makes it pop like Hanger 1’s mixability.
Sun Juice Belgian Summer Ale: 6.0 – It fulfills the requirements of a summer ale by being light and easy to drink. The overall taste though is on the blander side, so it’s not a ‘great’ summer ale.
Price Average: $12 for 6-pack

Nik’s Bitter: 6.0 – Harkens back to an ESB (an American bitter) but it’s just a tad too sweet to fully enjoy as such, it is drinkable though and easy drinking at that.
