    Coffee cinnamon and vanilla are the smells and you can definitely taste them. Nice smooth creamy taste. Another favorite! If you local guys can get it, do so!

    That one was super strong PB flavor. I used to love it, then got sick of it as it became too sweet

    This wasn't very sweet. Just a little weird tasting, not bad just different. I read up on them, come to find out they are out of business.

    If you freeze it like a slushy, it tastes even better.

    Lost Coast Brewery | Eureka, CA
    Peanut Butter Chocolate Milk Stout | 5.6%

    Pours near black with dark brown edging.

    Aromas - Peanut buttery aroma. Lesser milk chocolate. Very much peanut butter cup or snickers bar.

    Taste - Peanut butter and milk chocolate sweetness, but still like a Snickers

    Decent beer overall. Abv % should be cranked up on a stout like this though, imo.

    Imperial Vanilla Porter aged in rum barrels

    ABV 12.5 High octane
    IBU 22 if I remember correctly

    Aromas of malt, vanilla and rum. Tastes of rum and vanilla. The aftertaste of rum is really there, maybe a hint coffee with a little warmth as it goes down. Good stuff!! This is a seasonal release. Bad lighting.

    It's kinda weird. Because they have figs in it too you get this tart blueberryish flavor. It's really good, and one is in a box for you already :thumbsup:

    Holiday Spice | Brown ale with vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove
    6.17% ABV | 23 IBU

    Tastes a lot like the Wild Acre Snap'd gingerbread ale; very similar base, and spices. Real easy drinker, and not too overbearingly sweet at all. The spices are real mild and just give a great holiday-esque aftertaste.

    Very smoky and heavy with a rich flavor profile. Light coconut hints. I would almost push this to the stout category with how heavy and decadent it is.

    Buoy Brewery Astoria, OR. 7.5%, 70 IBUs. I think I have posted this before, but it’s what I’m drinking tonight. One of my favorite IPAs. Crisp citrus flavor, just enough bitter.

    One of my favorite beers. You should also try merry monks by victory. I make a trip to the brewery a few times a year.

    The rum barrel-aging is apparent on several levels: the smell and taste, woody and boozy. Yes, not a beer one would indulge in on a regular basis, but when a heavy hitting old ale is called for, this barrel aged imperial edition may be what you need to knock yourself for a loop. This one is a creeper, but did the trick.

    Don’t remember much of this one, but it wasn’t worth remembering. I would pass on this one.

    Label described as powdered sugar with peanut butter, Chex and chocolate.

    Pours dark with a chocolate aroma.
    Taste of dark chocolate with a hint of Chex. I didn’t get the taste of powdered sugar that I was hoping for, but was still a good beer that was easy to drink without being overly heavy or thick. Thanks to @Squatting Pigeon for sending!

    Smells of hops and peach. Even over the hops you can taste plenty of peach. The pears maybe a little. Really good stuff and it's highish octane.

    I have a love hate relationship with this beer. Light amber with a dark flavour. Not hoppy, but you can taste the oak.

    Bottled version was hit and miss. Some offc them have a metalic after taste. I called them up and they sent their rep to my house with fresh bottles. Im impressed. A few months later, they switched to cans.

    So in a month I'm going to do my 5th brewbus tour of 7 micro breweries in Jacksonville, Fl. I have to get my tolerance back up.
