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

A dark orange with a moderate soapy head. An aroma of tangerienes and peaches. The flavor is only mildly bitter for an IIPA. The taste is peachy. Wait what the hell did I just say peachy? Anyway there are also some graprefruit and orange peels in the background. Simple but I guess thats the point with a single hop IPA. Its good.

2513 AleSmith Old Numbskull United States English Barleywine 3.7

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

A dark amber appearance with a small head. A cherry, orange, and caramel aroma. The flavor is well balanced but more in the American mold in my opinion. A strong citrus flavor exists with some maltiness in the background. The mouthfeel is a little light with a slight alcohol burn. Not the best Ive had but still damn good.
