1926 Wooden Shoe Dumkopf United States Belgian Strong Ale 3.9

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

Murky gold color with a thin foamy white head. Sweet nose with some orange and some spice. Sweet beer with honey and candi sugar. Bitter orange peel, something floral and some spice that finished with a white sugar sweetness. The claimed 7% is well hidden so don't let the high Al content scare you off.

1927 Charles Wells Banana Bread Beer United Kingdom Fruit Beer 3.9

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

This stuff tastes and smells like your grandmothers banana bread, nutty, buttery and smooth pours standard golden and smells of delicious banana bread. Great beer but can't drink more then 1 or 2 in a night.

1928 Polar Venezuela Pale Lager 2.8

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

It pours a pale straw golden color with a fast-fading fizzy white head. Some trailing lace. A grainy cereal smell rises and remains throughout. A decent beer to drink while sitting on a beach in curacco watching the sun set, pairs well with seafood.

1929 Palm Royale Belgium Belgian Strong Ale 3.8

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

One of the best beers to drink on warm sunny beach, has great amber color, with not much of a head, but has a rich slightly fruity taste. highly refreshing beer, but becareful the high ABV can sneek up on you.

1930 Beck's Germany Lager 2.9

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

pours clear golden, little shunkie smell. This is typical of the German mainstream beers. Unlike other German beers best served cold which does make it refreshing.

1931 Beck's Dark Germany Dunkel / Dark Lager 3.0

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

Skunky armoa, nice reddish brown body, but virtually no head. Typical taste for mainstream German beer, but not quite as good as regular Beck's. Also unlike most German beers, this one best served cold.

1932 Beck's Oktoberfest Germany Marzen / Oktoberfest 3.5

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

This is the best of the Beck's line that I've tasted. I love Oktoberfest beers and this one was good, better then expected but I'm not a huge Beck's fan. Pour with great amber color, with a good head that hangs around for a while. It has a good carmel taste which was smooth and easy to drink. Matches nicely with cheese and crackers.

1933 Beck's Light Germany Light / Lite Lager 2.8

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

Its a light beer so don't expect to much, but if you are watching your waistline it is low in calorie. Like most Beck's beers you need to get this one cold. This one has a far less skunky aroma then other Beck's beers.

1934 Landshark Lager United States Lager 3.5

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

A great beer to drink after scuba diving, very refreshing. Best with a slice of lime. Has a bright golden color, well carbonaited. if heading to the beach put a 12 on the cooler, then sit back and relax.

1935 Kennebunkport Blueberry Wheat Ale United States Fruit Beer 3.2

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

excellent blueberry armoa, however, it lacks the same blueberry taste. While not bad, i would have preferred a little more blueberry taste. In addition the taste was quite week and needed more wheat taste. Over all not a bad beer just need a little more.

1936 Wild Blue United States Fruit Beer 2.6

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

i was dissappointed in this beer, lacked a sufficient blueberry armoa, light in taste as well. Tasted artificial. poured dark in color, had a sticky mouthfeel, more wine like then beer.

1937 Sea Dog Blue Paw Wild Blueberry Wheat Ale United States Fruit Beer 3.4

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

pour a pale golden color, wonderful blueberry armoa, nice head with good carbonation. This beer is really good on warm summer days, quite refreshing might be a little sweet tasting for some folks. If you like fruit beers try this one.

1938 Wooden Shoe Tippecanoe Canal Jumper Ale United States Belgian Ale 3.4

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

for a medium hop beer i felt the hops were a little strong but i really enjoyed the caramel malt flavoring. Over all this beer had a great finish. This is a small brewery who's just getting started but show great promise.

1940 Shiner Blonde United States Lager 2.7

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

This blonde was a little week for my taste, very light in color, a little weak. This came as part of a shiner family reunion pack. The head left a lot to be desired. Overall a cheap drinkable beer.

1941 Dixie Blackened Voodoo United States Schwarzbier 3.3

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

First thing you notice is the incredible aroma that rises from your glass, which aroses the senses. However, one drink brings you back to reality, while good the beer just can't seem to live up to expecations that arise from the initial aroma. Pours thin with virtually no head to speak of. fits well with several different cajun meals.

1942 Red Stripe Jamaica Lager 2.5

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

Decent aroma, has virtually no head, a little light on carbonation, easy to drink in warm weather or when laying on a beach. This beer works well with"hot" foods as it's light and doesn't fill you up.

1943 Red Stripe Light Jamaica Light / Lite Lager 2.4

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

A lot less flavor the regular red stripe, would adives to just skip the light version altoether and stick with the regular version. Only benefit is a few less calories.

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

Slightly disppointed in over all taste, while quite good, i was expecting a little more fruit taste from a fruit beer. It was good refreshing beer, easy to drink on hot days.

1947 Samuel Smiths Organic Strawberry Fruit Beer United Kingdom Fruit Beer 3.8

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

My favorite beer from this brewery. Has a great reddish amber color, with a strong strawbeery aroma. for a fruit beer this beer is decently malty with a slight hint of bannas???, has a great texture. One word of warning if you don't like strawberries avoid this beer, if you do buy several.

1948 Kelpie Seaweed Ale United Kingdom Stout 3.2

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

Had a flash back to my hippie days when I saw the seaweed label, so i had to give it a try, was surprised it was brewed in Scotland. I had low expectations on the drinkability of this beer but over all was pleasantly surprised. I enjoy a smokey and malty bev. with a dark brown color, with a head that stays around for a while. a nice pleasant ale

1949 Hop Hound Amber Wheat United States American Wheat 3.3

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

Has a murky pour, but has a decent head, which doesn't hang around to long. Excellent carbination, I really enjoy fruit flavored wheat beers. Tates good on hot summer days. Hard to believe AB made this but don't let that turn you off.

1950 Sierra Nevada Kellerweis Hefeweizen United States Hefeweizen 3.7

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

cloudy, yellowish in color, with a nice head that stays around for a while. Overall great aroma, but a little weak in "wheat" flavor for me. This is an excellent beer to have on a hot summer day expecially if you want more then 1.
