1826 Guinness Draught Ireland Dry Stout 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Not much of a stout person, the beer poured a dark black, with a tanish head that stayed around for quite some time. It has an aroma of chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor is strong and a little smoky, with plenty of hoppy bitterness with a nutty mouth filling character and interesting bubble effects.

1827 Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock United States Bock 3.6

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

i love bock beers but not sure about chocolate and bock. it poured a nice dark brown with a thin quickly disappearing tanish head. The armoa was outstanding with a really nice chocolate overtones. i felt beer was ok, not enough chocolate and felt like the bock part of the beer was forgotten.

1828 Kona Longboard Lager United States Lager 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Was drinking this beer watching Hawaii 5-O and noticed they were putting a few of these a way on the show. The beer poured a nice yellow, with a small white quickly disappearing head. A nice hoppy aroma rose up from the bottle. The beer had a nicly balanced taste with just a hint of spicey malt. Will have to admit this beer seemed slightly better in Hawaii but that may have to due with being in Hawaii then actual taste. However, it really really tastes good when sitting on a beach.

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

pours with a nice amber color with a nice white head that hangs around for a while. It had a nice fruity hoppy aroma with a pleasent taste (with a hint of grapefruit). Beer was nicely carbonated and was very enjoyable to drink. A very nice IPA. I would certanily drink more of this if it were available in my area.

Beer pours a nice deep amber color with a small white head that quickly disapates. The beer has a nice aroma of fruit and hops. The flavor is sweet and hoppy but is a disappointment after the excellent aroma. Overall a nice drinkable ale.

1831 Ithaca Apricot Wheat United States Fruit Beer 3.8

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

nice cloudy golden yellow pour with a nice head that disappeared nicely and a wonderfully fruity aroma. The flavor was a nice apricot but not to overpowering. I found it very refreshing so much so i had 2 more. Excellent beer for a warm sunny day.

1832 Budweiser Select United States Light / Lite Lager 1.5

Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

The only thing select on this is that it costs more money then standard bud. It virtually has no smell or taste. I tried bottle & can incase there was difference in taste but could find no taste in either. My advise is to NOT select this beer.

poured a nice light hazy yellow, with a small quickly disappearing head. Aroma was very nice but light in this beer which was disappointing. I love wheat beers but found this one lacking. It was ok but nothing great, overall it was disappointing i expected more from this brewery.

1834 Coors United States Pale Lager 2.0

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

I remember the days when you couldn't get coors east of the Old Miss. now i wish we couldn't. pours a very pale yellow with a small quickly disappearing head. Taste is very watery and plain. Must be served ice cold. Just another cheap mega brewery brew. stop spending money on advertising and spend a little on making the beer taste better!

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

pours an almost honey like amber, with a nice small off white head, that hangs around. It has a nice spicey fruity aroma. Noticed a bit of a metalic taste but overall enjoyed the fruity taste. Beer was highly carbonaited but wasn't over the top. fairly enjoyable ale.

1836 Goose Island Christmas Ale United States Old Ale 3.6

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

poured a nice darkish amber, with a decent white head, that lasted a little while. The aroma was that of caramel and spices. Beer tasted of caramel and spices, with the caramel being a touch to over powering. All in all not a bad beer to ring the season in with. P.s. Santa enjoyed the one i left him.

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

pours a nice dark amber color, with a small quickly disappearing white head. a nice aroma of caramel and hops arise from the glass, but the taste doesn't quite live upto the billing. Overall the beer was kind of bland, needs a little more flavor.

Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

the only way this is king of beers is due to advertising $$$$. perhaps they should spend less on advertising and more on trying to make a good beer. pours pea yellow, little head, little taste except for water and what is that smell ugh!

1842 Southern Tier Raspberry Wheat United States Fruit Beer 3.6

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

it had a nice redish brown pour, with a very small white head that disappeared quickly. The aroma was more hoppy then raspberries which was a surprise. The raspberry taste was not over powering so for those who aren't in to fruit beers try this one. My only slight complaint was the beer was a little over carbonated.

The beer pours a nice redish brown color with a very nice chocolate aroma producing a small white head. The taste was a little to sweet with a malty flavor with hints of roasted chocolate. Not bad but I was under impressed. I was expecting more. Not a bad beer on those long cold winter nites.

Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 3

The best thing about this beer was their commercials, the beer however is a total let down. It's a cheap beer good for camping with the guys on hot days or if your in collage. poured a pale yellow, with virtully no head. Very watery taste. Only drink this ice cold.

1850 Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout United Kingdom Oatmeal Stout 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

I'm not a fan of stout beers. This beer pours almost coal black, with a nice tan thick head, which hangs around for quite some time. A roasted coffee aroma ariss from the glass. To much of a coffee taste in the beer as well (note i don't like coffee either). It does have a wonderful mouth feel.
