1776 | Penn Dark Lager Beer | United States | Dunkel / Dark Lager | 3.7
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7 The beer pours a really dark brownish amber in color. It poured with a thin creamy off white head that died down but left a thick ring of bubbles around the edge of the glass. There are light to moderately strong aromas of dark malts along with some syrupy sweetness. The overall taste is quite malty and has flavors of dark malts along with hints of malty sweetness, nuts, roasted malts and syrup. It feels medium-bodied and has a moderate amount of carbonation. This beer is very drinkable and I could easily drink this beer all night long. It was part of a sampler pack. |

1777 | Penn Gold Lager | United States | Helles / Dortmunder | 3.9
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8 This beer pours a golden color with a white head the fades leaving a lacy ring around the glass. The beer is very lightly hazy. The beer has a very faint malty sweet smell with a very faint herbal/spicy hop aroma. Initially, you can taste the sweetness of the malt but this is then balanced by the low to moderate hop bitterness with a moderate carbonation. It's lighter body and good balance of flavor makes is a very good beer. This was also part of a sampler pack. |

1778 | Penn Weizen | United States | Hefeweizen | 4.2
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 8 Pours a yellow gold and yields a off-white head that dissipates after a minute or so to a faint dusting and thin foam ring. The aromas of wheat, bananas, and cloves are all there. The taste starts out with flavors of wheat, yeast, and cloves with just a little lemon zest. Upon swallowing, the clove and banana flavors come out more. Medium bodied with great carbonation, this beer. Also part of the sampler pack and was the best of the bunch. So far love every beer I have tried from Penn brewery. |

1779 | Big Sky Moose Drool Ale | United States | Brown Ale | 3.6
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7 Pours a deep brown with good clarity when held to a light and has a nice creamy, tan head and stays intact nearly to the bottom of the glass. The taste is milk chocolate with hints of earthy hops and crystal malt. The milk chocolate notes continue into the body of this beer, but it also picks up a substantial amount of earthy hop notes to balance things out. The beer has enough carbonation to make it exceptionally creamy. |

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 Pours a dark cola brown with a finger width of foamy beige head that hangs until the end. The aroma has caramel, vanilla, hint of plum, slight hazelnut. The taste has a nuttiness and sweet caramel are the boldest flavours coming through, supported by the vanilla undertones. Nice bittersweet flavours. The mouthfeel is a medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Nice smoothness and refreshing qualities. |

1781 | Grolsch Het Kanon | Netherlands | Strong Lager | 3.0
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6 drank this in curacao after a hard day of scuba diving, so my taste may be a little off. First the aroma from the bottle was that of fresh hops. It pours a clear dark golden color with decent carbonation, but a very poor head. The smell and taste are hops, some citrus, decent malts, peppery, but these seem unable to escape from the very dominant alcoholburn. Watch the high ABV content especially if your in the hot sun. |

1782 | Grimbergen Blonde | Belgium | Belgian Ale | 3.5
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 drank this on the beach in Curacao so rating may be a little "off". Pours clear golden with an abundant frothy white head. Some bubbles can be seen rising from the bottom of the glass. The head recedes slowly, leaving some lacing on the side of the glass. There are aromas of pale malts, spice, fruit, and faint yeast. The flavor is malty and sweet with some some spice to help balance the flavor. It has a mild aftertaste that is spicy and sweet. The mouthfeel is light to medium with moderate carbonation. It has a crisp, dry finish. It's fairly easy to drink. Overall, this is a solid, unoffensive Belgian pale ale. |

1783 | Weyerbacher Insanity | United States | English Barleywine | 3.9
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8 Pours a somewhat hazy amber, mahogany color with a thin head that leaves a ring for a good while before fading. The aroma is very rich with caramel, and dark fruit, mainly fig. Oak and vanilla are present as well. Overall it has a very sweet aroma. The taste is a overpowered by dark fruit and malt, and is very sweet. The alcohol is almost masked by the richness of the malt but the beer is full bodied with a creamy carbonation. |

1784 | Unibroue Raftman | Canada | Smoked Ale | 3.3
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 It pours a nice orange/amber color. It has no head but has a white ring around the glass that leaves some lacing. The aromas definitly give out hints spices, wheat, citrus and belgian yeast. Like the aromas, the taste has a nice spice presence (cloves, maybe coriander) with some wheat notes, citrus and yeast. It has a high carbonation with a nice overall balance and feel. It's a very smooth drinkable beer accompanied with good flavors and aromas. |

1787 | KEO Premium | Cyprus | Pale Lager | 3.0
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6 pours a light-gold color with a frothy white foam. Lots of apparent effervescence. Pretty average looking. Has aroma of light malt aroma with a hint of grain. Clean and mild; not a whole lot of character. Pretty much average for the style. The taste is a bit sour and grainy, though there's a nice hop bitterness toward the end. Could be worse, but it's not my favorite. The mouthfeel is light body, though a bit more body than I'm used to in the style. Carbonation is pretty decent, but the lager not that impressive. |

1788 | Unibroue L'Éphémère Pomme (Unibroue L'Éphémère Apple) | Canada | Fruit Beer | 4.0
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8 Beer pours nice clear amber with a huge aroma of apples has a nice white head that quickly disappears. The apples are all there, in a juicy, refreshing kind of way. The aroma suggested way more tartness, which was mostly there. The balance is impeccable- with some coriander and spice. Super-smooth, no distracting things in the flavor. I really enjoy this beer and fruit beers in general. |

1789 | Amstel Bright | Curacao | Pale Lager | 4.0
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8 The appearance is very bright and clean. I really like the taste. They serve it up with a lime... but I tasted it without the lime squeeze and thought it tasted fantastic. I added the lime and didn't think it affected the overall flavor. The mouthfeel is very light and crisp. It's also very refreshing. It's just a really really good brew especially when sitting on a beach in the Caribbean. |

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8 pours a nice orangish amber color with a nice white head, that quickly disappears. It has a wonderful aroma of carmel and orange. It has a complex flavor of malt and honey but balanced well with hop bitterness. It's no wonder that this beer has won so many awards. |

1795 | Bud Dry | United States | Pale Lager | 1.1
Aroma: 2 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2 drink this durning collage, it sucked then and nothing has changed. This beer only good for beer pong or chugging and must be served ice cold. Beer pours pale pee yellow, tastes like it too. which AB would spend money on making their beer better and less on commercials. |

1796 | Lion Stout (Sinha Stout) | Sri Lanka | Foreign / Extra Stout | 3.6
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 Not a super fan of stouts. The beer pours a nice dark brown almost black with a nice brownish head that stays around for a short time. Aroma has a intense fruityness with hints of coffee. The beer has a dense molassess-like body and starts with a rich, dark, sweet malt flavor that becomes dry and bitter with a hint of roasted coffee and bitter chocolate. I was very surpised how good this beer was especially when you consider it was made in Asia and not the stout capital of the world Europe. |

1797 | Singha | Thailand | Lager | 3.4
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 pours a nice light golden color with a nice white head that quickly disappears. A light almost sweet aroma of malts and a little corn great the nose. This beer is a nice lite refreshing beverage, which goes nicely with a hot summer day. It's not a strongly flavored lager but it does have a pleasing malty flavor with just the right amount of carbonation. |
