Nice hazy presentation with an oaty nose and palate. A real mouthful of citrus notes and a balanced structure. Powerful finish without the huge abv slap in the face. — 2 years ago

Key Lime Pie and Lolita? Hard slap of apple cider riding high on waves of apricot and cinnamon stick that is cheating with apple in Pickleville. Asian spices shimmer alongside. Real tart briny lime plays nice with Old Key Lime House-made pie. Bing cherry bringing the cringe from the fringes to the face cave! Sugar-olive dichotomies. The push and pull cancellations have me imagining pickled persimmon existences, dried, spiced Asian plum, banana pepper, potpourri woods, candied ginger, and bite after bite the palatal assault assuaged by lime and sugar and graham cracker. Bittersweet tang for the twang thang. — 5 years ago

Not a sour. And sorry for the long story I'm about to tell but about to advertise for you guys a great future craft brew brand. It's one of the best stouts I've had. Had it at least 30 times and it's always on spot perfect. Look up this brewery, they've been around 3 years and their record with GABF is on point with what I taste and that makes me happy it's local. I've been going here for 3 years since college and now that they have cans distributed across the east and west coast... I've gotta say this is the dream if your local products.

It really is what I scored it, and it's only their second best beer. Even other brewhouses like deschutes, ballast point won't get this much respect from me and I lived in San Diego for a time bowing to the original sculpin recipe before they sold out. The expression of cacao nibs on this are AMAZING. Clear as day, in your face. Stands out heavily with a creamy burly texture. The finish is smooth and clean at 5.5% alcohol for a young nitro release. They distribute to west and east coast now.. they're the next ballast point/Sierra Nevada you name it. Every night there's at least 150 covers at this bar year round, I'll leave it at that. Mai Tai PA is the next legendary beer though. #thebestpartofwakingup #superfanboy — 7 years ago

Great pumpkin offering as usual! Pie crust and pumpkin pie spice offering on the nose to appease the gourds; orange pekoe celestial reflections. Cinnamon stick whittled for whipping, and nutmegs just made for licking. Great taste for a knife carved face of caramelized pumpkin! Naysayers be slain. Haters haunted, Geeks begouled, Smarms smitten. How else can you mark the seasons in Florida? Bring on the jacked-up-juices! #halloween #pumpkin #pumpkinbeer #dogfishhead #dogfishheadpumpkinbeer #dogfishheadpunkinale #punkinale #seasonalbeer #gourdbrew #iwillslapyouintothanksgivingifyousmacktalkjack — 3 years ago

Full flattop of foam dissipates drastically leaving a single frozen flash of anime splash. Nice face full of orange orchard and spicy lemon and nutritional yeast with faint cut potato and mild yellow pepper. Zingy citrus grip blossoms into lemons dried and fresh-cut with tangerines, clementines and orchard blend. Mineral texture suggestive of crystalline metal. This wonderful farm girl has charm and poise. Delightfully bright and shimmering; with depth and substance. So like sudden, hard sunshine after a forest deluge. Immaculate. — 5 years ago

I felt bad about feeling so good drinking this wine, like drinking great wine in front of a thirsty pregnant lady that can't have any. I only felt bad cause I didn't care to share, wiping wine stains from my face.
For the sadist in me, utterly and wholly pleasing. — 6 years ago

Blood orange, cypress bark, and dried grapefruit skin. Dried peas, grilled pineapple, dried, folded hops that smack of poblano. Spiced mouthfeel resonates with nutmeg and brown sugar malt suggestions, bit-o-honey, slight bitter turn on the follow-up that feels like dried lavender and chicory side hustles. Very good ipa all in all. Feels sessionable initially, but definitely dragging its abv across your face rug. #wichitabrewing #vsixipa #ipa #indiapaleale #ale #beer #biere #bier #birra #cerveza #ksbeer #wichitabrewingco #wichitaks — 4 years ago

Chunky blonde monkey! This tangy orangutan is riddled with bits of grits! It had a big blonde head and was like an orange freshly peeled with pith, fossilized, and amber singing of grapefruit days and juniper nights; black pepper and cedar chiming in with rosemary and chive. Really slaps your tongue with the Gin-ny Juniper...Secondary notes of grapefruit, orange, lemon seed, coriander and grapefruit pith chatter and whoop as your face is lovingly eaten. The gibberish and screeching grows to a crescendo as the juniper raises its cedar cudgel covered in lichen and wild yeast, cinnamon and clove and just a bay leaf or two, and warmly drums your taut torso while your consciousness clouds like the thick detritus of its last sips. Your limbs pull away with ease as the troop joins the rhythmic frenzy. ‘Why are you hitting yourself?’ their warm starlit eyes suggest with just a little mischief. You know why. — 5 years ago

Purchased this 2008 Owen Roe Syrah about 7 years ago from Atlantic Wine, a sort of innocuous wine merchant in North Buckhead Atlanta. I do remember it shared a building with an upscale outdoors outfitter (Yeti, Patagonia, North Face, etc...) along with a large Goodwill Store/Donation Center. I always kick myself for not going in that Goodwill, and imagine it was an treasure trove of never used luxury camping gear. Instead, I opted for whatever mix of First Growth Bordeaux was in stock at Atlantic, which inevitably left me a bottle short of a 10% discount, thus resulting in this purchase, and later to be stashed away in the back and bottom of the cellar. I had completely forgot about this ghost bottle until tonight. Despite the wax seal, I still was slightly concerned that it might be past its prime, so I pulled the cork... An exotic, but pure cacao that’s pleasantly unforgiving, and cautiously allows in some lush blueberry compote, along with finocchiona rolled in fresh cracked pepper with thyme, tarragon, and lavender. Could certainly last another 5-7 years, but it’s too stunningly beautiful now to resist. — 6 years ago
