    I doubt anyone blogs here. This story won't grow legs.

    DIPA collab between Root + Branch and Hudson Valley just smells of dank citric fruit. Taste is a little more muted, creamy orange and peach. I like this more than the 1st can I had. Really good. Done for the evening, so everyone enjoy the rest of their night.

    #2, this came from our trip to Marco Island back in October, and it was brewed in June, still holding up exceptionally well.

    I’m not going to say that I dislike it, but this is my first underwhelming Moonraker - Hazy Rider:

    Another polish lager. This was great! Great rocky head retention/spotty soapy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big cracker, white bread dough, toasted biscuit, light honey/nutty malts; with some herbal, floral, grassy, peppery noble hops. Light-moderate herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation/body, and fairly crisp/clean finishing. Creamy/bready/grainy malts and some sticky hops in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing lingering bitter dryness, no cloying/astringency. Very clean lagering, minimal fruity/yeasty notes. Very flavorful, pretty refreshing, minimal warming 5.7%. Very clean and rich Pils/Munich malt showcase; with solid earthy noble hop presence/balance. Really enjoyable and impressive for the style. One of the better imported "export strength" lagers I've had. 4

    I have the oratory skills for politics, no question. My closet would never let it happen. Too many skeletons. I can just hear it now:

    "Hunter, is it true you did x, y, and z on said dates?"

    "You're damn right, I did. Next question."

    All BS aside, I would respect any politician that had skeletons and owned up to them. That's the difference. They bury shit on top of shit. I think you can smell it from here.

    Excellent white porter. Great rocky head retention/spotty soapy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big milk/white chocolate, cocoa, coffee, honey, caramel, vanilla, cream, nuttiness, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit malts; with some herbal, floral, grassy, peppery hops. Light-moderate pine, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery hop; and roasted coffee bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation/body; creamy/bready/grainy malts, some sticky hops, and light chalky roast in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing lingering bitter dryness, no cloying/astringency. Very smooth, minimal warming 5.8%. Great balance of rich malts, chocolate, and coffee flavors; with nice earthy hop presence/balance against sweetness. Spot on American style porter attempt, tastes really close. 4
