Appearance

Is there any way you can sort your reviews by the scores you gave for appearance or aroma, etc.?

 

I agree it looks great. Unfortunately it doesn't taste like much.

 

Anything with a huge bubbly head that retains nicely. Wild Devil comes to mind.

 

Weihenstephaner Hefe in the right glass

 

Agreed. I love watching one of these babies bubble.

 

I gotta say that Oskar Blues' Gordon/G'Knight is a worthy mention. My favorite Imperial Red.

 

Nope.

 

Cantillon Kriek on tap is amazing to stare at (and smell)

 

+1 Mighty fine looking brew…not to mention delicious.

 

Over a few styles, La Fin Du Monde looks amazing. Wasn't a huge fan, but can't argue with the looks. For a quad, Rochefort 10 poured beautifully. If you can get a head on KBS it looks amazing. For pales, Dreadnaught was gorgeous. Hazy orange with a nice fluffy head.

 

Samuel smith imperial stout, peche mortel, and tallgrass ipa are some of the prettiest looking beers. The prettiest beer I have had to date was delirium tremens poured with large globs of globbies floating throughout it. The bottle was a gusher and so heavily carbonated that the floaties, (orbs, or globbies) were furiously flowing about like the beer was dancing just for me. Each sip was tart and belgiany while also finishing dry and creamy which made no sense to me at all while remaining highly enjoyable. It was a divine beer moment and I have had delirium tremens since then without the floaties and it was nowhere near as good without the dancing beer gremlins in it. In finish I love a beer that confounds and suprises me both at the same time. Yes I know I have amazing grammar skills which is what living in Kansas is all about.

 

have never tried this beer, but am very interested.

 

Best looking brews personally of late, though, the glass really matters.

Rising Tide - Daymark
Bitter Monk - Anchorage
Houblon Chouffe
Schlenkerla Eiche in a stange, Marzen also
Tap X Mein Nelson
Cuvee de Ranke, orange, pink and red hues, pink head.. gorgeous
Westvetleren 12 in an official chalice
Heady Topper
Supplication
Old Rasputin on nitro

just off the top of my head

 

Wild Devil certainly fits in the huge bubbly head category.. enjoyed the beer, but in the Me vs foam battle, foam won.

A recent beer that struck me as looking great in the glass was Saranac's Chocolate Orange porter. Poured a thick black with a nice dark 2 finger head. I wish I took a picture. They seem to have stepped up their game a bit with a few of their new releases.

 

Best:

 

My favorite looking beers are:

SN Celebration
Bell's Hoplsam
Victory Prima Pils
Victory Lager

 

Very true. It takes at least twenty minutes to even get near the beer. Of all the Saranac I've head, I haven't even heard of that guy. Welp, that's a new one to look out for next time I'm home.

 

The Unibroue 17 I poured last night looked phenomenal. Rich, opaque purplish brown with a SPARKLING head of rocky foam. It was sparkling.
