    One of a few new arrivals last Friday including this Brown Ale brewed in Belgium by these guys from Denmark.

    From label on can:

    4.25/5 rDev 0%
    look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

    500 ml. can.
    Moderate pour yields a 1and a 1/2 inch light tan head over a dark brown head with some nice lacing. Head dissipates down to a ring in a few minutes with that lacing sticking around. Nose of slight coffee and even slighter spice. Taste is the standout here as the coffee, cinnamon, and cardamon come together to make a pretty tasty brown ale. Nice feel and overall, I will be having this again. Cheers!

    Flying Fish Oktoberfish. Although not very highly rated, I enjoy this one and rate it among the top two or three of the style. In fact, I always buy an extra sixer or two and crack them out in the Spring. Still tastes great.

    I was more impressed with Bone Island Brewing in Key West. Hit them up.

    Also, make sure to go to Kermit's for some amazing Key Lime pie.

    This isn’t bad I wouldn’t have guessed it was a NEIPA except for that fake powdery Hop flavor. Victory’s Cloudwalker IPA
