    I can't wait to see some Yum Yum in bottles! The time has come, such a better beer.

    Reviews:

    A nice and pleasant English IPA. Taste of lemon zest, orange peel, light pine, toffee, cracker, bread, vanilla, toasted oak, herbal, floral, grass, and herbal/oak earthiness. Light herbal/pine bitterness on the finish. Well balanced pale malt, earthy hop, and oak character. Very smooth and crisp finish. Tasty stuff.

    This was really good. Aromas were really well balanced. Taste of big caramel, cinnamon, toast, toffee, brown sugar, biscuit, nuttiness, light vanilla with some light herbal/grassy hops. Light cinnamon spiciness on the finish. Cinnamon in the flavor was a bit strong, but not too overdone in my opinion. Nice smooth and fairly slick/sticky mouthfeel. Really enjoyed this. As usual I got a full 6 pack and I will happily have all of it.

    Great Brett session saison! Taste of lemon zest, orange peel, strawberry, pineapple, peach, pear, white pepper, cracker, bread, hay, straw, grass, musty funk, and yeast earthiness. Nice amount of yeast spice on the finish. Well carbonated, crisp, and fairly prickly mouthfeel. Great brett flavor complexity while still being a spot on saison in flavor. Love it, if only the price were lower.

    Probably not the best idea to take a photo in front of a glassware cabinet, haha. Found a bottle of Raspberry Tart stashed at the back of my fridge, so I figured I'd celebrate my good fortune and drink it while watching baseball. Cheers!

    Gave my two weeks notice at work today which felt as good as this beer tastes. Stoneface IPA. I sampled it on tap at the brewery a couple of months ago and thought it was ok. I saw bottles when I was in Portsmouth, NH last weekend and decided to give it a 2nd chance. I'm glad I did! I'm liking this much more than what I had the first time around.

    Very little mint. What's there comes off as a nondescript herbiness. I really dig this beer though. (4.06/5)

    Honestly, after having the Bell's brown ale, this is very underwhelming. Probably a one-and-done for me.
