Somewhat peculiar chocolate porter 'ale' with blood-thickened yeast sediment, deep grain permeation, and minor tart-fruited holiday spicing penetrating mocha midst to evolving sugar-maple malt finish.
Zesty fruit-scented berry-ridden dark ale renders polite hop bite and unobtrusive malt sweetness. Not nearly strong or resilient enough but easily quaffed.
Cloudy bronzed Belgian-style abbey ale burrows heavy malt lacquer through barleywine-like mouthfeel and loud prune-raisin suggestion. Cherry-banana-quince hex adds depth to biscuit-y bottom as thick alcohol resonation surges.
Roasted malts deepen moderate hop bitterness of reddish-coppered, dry-bodied, Scottish-styled Mexican. Finish goes from grain roasted sweetness to citrus rind sourness. Not nearly as efficient and too soapy when compared to aggressive Modelo Negra.
Dry oaken white grape waft fills out front end of turbid prune-hued amber ale. Perfumed fig-plum tartness, green raisin prop, and faint barleywine-bourbon remnant found in recessive smoked peat backdrop. Peppery hop fizz burdens chocolate-coated pecan-almond scamper.
Merely duplicating other British brewers' weaker attempts, bland ale lacks distinct oatmeal persistence, and strangely, could be better defined as a dark lager thanks to fizzy hop bitterness tucking away cracked barley sweetness and slackened mocha-chocolate influence. Rich toasted graining saves this from complete mediocrity.
Unconventional copper-hazed African-styled brew reminiscent of Belgian-styled Ommegang Abbey Ale. Lofty 7% alcohol blear rears head above lively yeast, candied malts, and burnt 'palmnuts.' Grand Marnier waft consumes fresh cut apple, orange rind, and banana fruiting to dry-smoked white pepper finish. Only its fuzzy carbolic aridity holds this back.
Luxuriantly robust ink black 'Reserve Special' schwarzbier pours like motor oil and retains genuine lactose stout traits. Creamy black chocolate endurance and flaked oat foundation fully enriched by roasted hop-charred cappuccino, espresso, and coffee ground bittering. Thick tar-like molasses flow picks up black licorice, currant, smoked cedar, and raspberry puree illusions ahead of maraschino cherry blurt. Dark rum and dry burgundy notes detected in deep recess.

Warbled mildly carbonated coppery-hued medium-bodied English-styled amber ale pits sugary corn malt sweetness against oncoming musty peat, dry chestnut, and grape nut illusions. Toasted mineral-grained hop meander scarcely embitters tinny finish, stagnating sketchy Scotch slip. '07 version bottled at Maryland's Wild Goose Brewery possessed gentle honeyed caramel creaminess countering woody Chinook-hopped astringency and dried fruit bunker.

Bland fire-brewed African-styled pale-bodied amber ale lacks stylistic resolve. Cloy sorghum-millet malting confronts acidic yellow-fruited hop tingle. Floral-spiced lemon bittering tucks in green grape tartness, unripe banana stint, and earthy gypsum spell. 
Roasted malts deepen moderate hop bitterness of reddish-coppered, dry-bodied, Scottish-styled Mexican. Finish goes from grain roasted sweetness to citrus rind sourness. Not nearly as efficient and too soapy when compared to aggressive Modelo Negra.

Robust white-bottled prune-clouded ale gains candied brandy charm above dried-fruited chocolate-soured spicing. Concentrated carbonation grips the tongue, allowing clove-allspice adjuncts to seduce. On tap, ripe apple, red grape, and raisin-fig nuances reinforce alcohol-soaked malts. 
Tepid brown-bodied middleweight suffers from lackluster up-front toasted hop thrust, fleeting dry prune souring, and astringent roasted chocolate malting to earthen nutty bottom. Meek cola sweetness hardly felt.
