Wavering medium-bodied English Pale Ale punctuates dark mocha overtones, hop-roasted barleymalt backbone, and dry coffee-nut subtlety with creamy liqueur absorption. But watery texture and metallic nuisance squander subdued toffee finish most fuller-bodied British bitters maintain.

Pleasing lemony grapefruit easement lightly embitters grassy-hopped wheat husk, cardboard-y pale malt dryness, and mineral grained recess. But pasty texture and slight alcohol burn cloak apple skin snick and floral lick.

Stagnant clear copper dry body needs to deepen blanched grapefruit-peach bittering and tepid malt roasting ’cause woody Cascade hop astringency can’t carry the load. Bark-like mouthfeel feels right but cardboard finish and acetous aftertaste deprive further goodness.

Dank citric floral aroma abruptly interrupted by rye-pumpernickel-tobacco assertion until lemony overture infiltrates dry sour bread finish for extent joyride. Brewery defunct: 2005.

Subtly impressive light-bodied fare with sweet honey-dipped cereal grains penetrating gently spice-hopped peach-tangerine tang. A hint of cornbread surfaces soon after.

Laudable clear amber medium-bodied ‘hophead’ fave updated from initial ‘Maverick’ version listed below. Dry pine needled green hop prickle given lemony grapefruit, orange peel, and juniper bitterness contrasting luscious spruce-sapped peach-nectarine sweetness to biscuit-y wheat bottom. Spicy floral-herbal tinge envelops tertiary fresh-cut grass, resinous hemp, and moldy wood remnants.

Robust amber body reminiscent of barleymalt-sweetened toasted lager receives moist orange-tangerine wisp pervading mineral-grained cracked wheat spine. Lingered hop-embittered lemon rind tang bombards tender almond finish but acetous metallic bitterness causes minor setback.

Tremendously juicy sienna-hazed fruit ale brings ripe cherry-tangerine-peach-melon-strawberry abundance to white ale-like nutmeg-coriander spicing. Floral dusting and minor pumpkin hint found in maple malt midst.

Perfumed hops saturate sweet fruited nut insurgence and dry barley backdrop before blackened wood-charred bitterness invades lingered piney finish.

Light amber-bodied fluffy white-headed Virginian provides aromatic soda bread delicacy to tangy sweet ‘n sour orange ripeness and musty floral punctuation. Doughy yeast longevity and soft hop temperance supplement dry citric finish well.

Aromatic floral hops and skunk-y yeast pungency need better distinction. Barley, wheat, and sour malts provide well-rounded midst, but finish tails off. Brewery defunct: 2007.

Delightful amber-hued dry-hopped bitter with lusty maple thickness complementing barley-sweet honey-roasted candy malts. Subtle cinnamon-spiced berry adjuncts warm complex finish. Brewery defunct: 2000.
