STONE/ EVIL TWIN/ STILLWATER THE PERFECT CRIME BLACK SMOKED SAISON

STILLWATER A SAISON DARKLY
Loosely defined as a decadent noir saison, its musky stout-like dark-roasted chocolate malting and molasses-smoked dried fruiting receive an unusual hop-charred rosehips-hibiscus spicing. Soured fig, purple grape, black cherry, prune, raisin and blueberry tartness scurries above dry licorice snip. Headier than its 8% alcohol volume lets on.

ELYSIAN SUPERFUZZ BLOOD ORANGE PALE
Perfectly sessionable chartreuse-hazed summertime moderation benefits wholly from zesty blood orange peel theme. Fuzzy cream head allows eclair-like crystal malting to contrast oncoming grapefruit seed bittering. Distant tangerine, navel orange, nectarine and mango illusions solidify brisk citric tang. But this one’s firmly entrenched in authenticated blood orange tartness, sourness and sweetness.

RJ ROCKERS FISH PARALYZER BELGIAN-STYLE PALE ALE

REDD’S APPLE ALE
OK. So MillerCoors makes this lowly-regarded malt beverage (suspectly given space at the liquor store in the beer section). They ain’t beer ’cause the grain base don’t exist and it tastes more like apple juice. However, as a light refreshment its red apple ripeness, sweet cider kick and sugary caramel backside have a spritzy splendor sweet-toothed softies and Jolly Rancher fans will enjoy.

HENRY WEINHARD’S NORTHWEST-STYLE LAGER
Tepid straw-cleared fizz-water (with no body or character) brings soapy corn malts and salty lemon-rotted grapefruit souring to the severely washed-out French bread finish. Cheap whiskey snip detected when warmed.

BRECKENRIDGE IMPERIAL CHOCOLATE CREAM STOUT
Reliable dark chocolate creaming and molasses-sapped cookie dough sinew anchor full-bodied mocha dessert treat. Chocolate truffle, chocolate cake, dark toffee and vanilla sweetness contrasts moderated oats-charred hop bittering. Butternut, pecan and praline nuttiness stays far below.
