76 Abita Strawberry Harvest Lager United States Fruit Beer 3.3

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

A golden appearance with a white head. The aroma is of course strawberries with some corn notes. The flavor consists of strawberry syrup and some grassy notes as well. Easy drinking and not over powering in the strawberry dept. Overall not bad for some hot weather drinking

77 Abita Turbo Dog United States Brown Ale 3.5

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

Appearance is a dark brown with a large head. Flavor is malty with some chocolate and caramel present. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. Overall a decent beer but a little thin bodied. This was my first beer that wasnt a BMC product. I will give it some sentimental credit

78 Abita Wheat United States American Wheat 2.1

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

On tap in the French Quarter. This was a pretty crappy wheat even for an American version. A yellow apperance with a moderate head. The aroma contains a hint of lemons and some wheat. The flavor is pretty much right on with any other swill. Nothing you look for in a decent wheat beer shows through. I get some lemons with a hint of corn. Overall if I wasnt washing down some crawfish etouffee with this, I’d be pissed.

79 Ace Apple Cider United States Cider 1.9

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 4

Transparent yellow appearance and a transparent taste to boot. This tastes like someone dropped an apple slice into a glass of water and left it for an hour. Dull.

80 Ace Berry Cider United States Cider 3.2

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

Pale orange appearance with no head. A grape aroma with a slightly sour grape flavor. A little light bodied but refreshing and enjoyable. It's Jungle Juice for adults!

81 Ace Joker Cider United States Cider 3.1

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

Had this on tap. Not much to say except standard macro cider taste with more of an alcohol bite. This should be banned as its potential date rape beverage. Overall pass.....

82 Ace Pear Cider United States Cider 3.1

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 6

Interesting cider and much better than I expected. Aroma of pears and sour fruit. Flavor is oranges, pears, and apples. Not as sweet as I had feared. It has a slighty dry finish. Pretty good.

83 Achel Blond 8 Belgium Belgian Strong Ale 3.9

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

A golden yellow color with a large head. A very lemony and sugary aroma. The flavor is quite sweet yet sour with lemon drop candies and some peach flavors present. Pretty good stuff.

84 Achel Extra Bruin (de drie wijzen) Belgium Abbey Quadrupel 3.8

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

Aroma is floral and chocolate. Appearance is ruby brown with a nice head. Flavor is caramel and spice and everything nice. Some citrus fruit lurking in the background. Palate is spicy and stings a little. Alcohol is well hidden. Not the most complex Belgian Strong Ale but a very nice beer.

85 Achilles Serafijn Grand Cru Belgium Belgian Strong Ale 3.9

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

An orange appearance with a carbonated white head. The aroma reminds me of fruit cake with some spices, dark fruit, and orange peel. The flavor contains some peaches, apricot, oranges, and spices. The mouthfeel is a bit sugary and carbonated. Overall I really enjoyed this beer.

87 Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Marzen Germany Rauchbier 3.9

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

If you've never had a smoked beer it's quite an interesting experience. Aroma is of bacon and ham. Flavor is smoked meat. Appearance is pitch black. This is a meat lover's pizza in a bottle. Some will find this beer to be strange, but for me it was quite interesting.

88 Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Weizen Germany Rauchbier 3.8

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

A brown appearance with a moderate head. The aroma is bacon and pepperoni. The flavor is in the same mold, with some bacon and other pork products possibly ham. A litte bit of caramel present as well. A hint of beef jerky aftertaste. Smoked out the wazoo but seems to be lighter in body and flavor than the Marzen. I enjoy it but I could see how some people wouldnt.

89 Affligem Blonde Belgium Belgian Ale 3.2

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

A yellowish orange appearance. A creamy head with some nice lacing. The aroma is....sniff....sniff....almost non-existant. A very mild lemon and dust aroma. The flavor is nothing to write home about either. Quite yeasty and wheaty almost with a hint of bitterness. It leaves a bit of sourness on the tounge. A good beligan lawnmower beer. Refreshing and not complex. Alright by me anyway.

90 Affligem Dubbel Belgium Abbey Dubbel 4.5

Aroma: 10 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 9

This is an excellent Abbey Dubbel and may even my best yet. Aroma is chocolate and caramel. Appearance looks about like every other Dubbel Ive had, brownish/red. Flavor is chocolate, caramel, apples, oranges, complex for this style! The balance is perfect as the malt does not dominate. Palate is smooth with no evidence of the 7%. Overall its simple and to the point, no frills, but excellent all the same.

91 Affligem Noel Belgium Belgian Strong Ale 3.7

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

A murky brown appearance. The aroma was spicy with a load of nutmeg and caramel. The flavor was cinnamon, nutmeg, pepperment, caramel. A very yeasty flavor was present. A slight alcohol and sugary aftertaste. This would be ok in small does.

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

A nice pilsner here. A grassy and lemon aroma. A cloudy yellow appearance with a moderate head. The flavor was somewhat sweet with a grassy and saaz hop flavor. Just what you would look for in a pils.

93 Ak Bars Green (Snow Cougar Premium) Russia Strong Lager 2.5

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

This one was not too bad but not too good either. It was a pale yellow color with a corny aroma. The flavor was yeasty and sour. Some citrus going on but this one seems to be poorly made. I think it should just be a malt liquor myself. Oh well. Try again comrades!

94 Alaskan Brewing Barley Wine (Big Nugget) United States English Barleywine 3.7

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

The appearance is a dark amber color with a beige head. The aroma contains some caramel, alcohol, cherries, nutmeg. The flavor is rather sweet with some caramel, raisins, toffee, and a huge dose of alcohol. The aftertaste is rather sweet and boozy. Overall this is pretty good but might need some age to calm down the hotness.

95 Alaskan Brewing IPA United States IPA 3.1

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

This beer poured an orange color. A faint lemon and pine aroma. The flavor is only somewhat bitter with some lemons and grapefuit showing. This one seemed rather one dimensional and not very complex. Overall a sub par IPA.

96 Alaskan Brewing Smoked Porter United States Smoked Ale 4.2

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

Aroma is smoked bacon, coffee, and ham. Like smelling your Waffle House breakfast plate. Appearance is pitch black with a tan head. The flavor is somewhat bitter with some charcoal and bacon present. It tastes a bit burnt but not in an offensive way. Very interesting and smokey. Non fans of the smoked style need not apply.

97 Alaskan Brewing Winter Ale United States Spiced Beer 3.5

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

The aroma is quite good. Lots of bubblegum, chocolate, spruce, and caramel. The apperance is a light copper color. The thin palate is my only real complaint with this beer. The flavor is lemons, cinammon, cloves, and caramel. Its simple yet complex if that makes sense. I enjoyed it.

Aroma is pine, vanilla, alcohol and dark fruit. Flavor is mainly caramel and grapes some pine showing through. Not a good mouthfeel, creamy with a thin palate. Overall a little too sweet for my taste but it was ok. I'f you like licking tree sap right off the tree this beer is for you!

A reddish orange appearance with a minimal head. A whiskey and cherry aroma. This one is a little bit on the sweet side with some oak notes. The flavor is cherries, burbon, strawberries, with a nutty presence. The aftertaste is somewhat bitter and warming. An excellent beer.
