    Very nice fruit beer. Taste of apricot, peach, pear, apple, honey, wheat, bread, floral, grass, and light yeast earthiness. Minimal bitterness and some slight fruit tartness on the finish. Good robustness of flavors for 5%. Well balanced fruit and pale malt flavors. Smooth and crisp drinking. Really enjoyed this one.

    A damn good Black IPA. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, floral, grass, dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toast, light char, and floral/roasted earthiness. Nice pine/roast bitterness on the finish. Good amount of roast malt flavor, but the finish is super crisp and sticky like an IPA. Great balance of the hop and malt flavors.

    This is really nice! Taste of raisin, plum, fig, apple, light banana, clove, pepper, brown sugar, toast, rye and some moderate herbal/grassy hops. A very nice sized amount of clove/pepper spice on the finish(a feature I like to see). All around well balanced fruity/spicy yeast and bready/candi sugar malt flavors; very crisp sipping for 9.3%. I'm definitely a fan of this. I'm going to go buy more.

    Careful with those "Happy Valley" references - Penn State needs money and lawyers are under every rock.

    Sticking with the All Day IPA, it's delicious but I wish I planned ahead for IPA day and had some variety on hand.

    Truth - I'd be slamming a bomber of RuinTen if I didn't still have more work to finish tonight.
