TWO BROTHERS BREWING COMPANY - Monarch White Beer.      A nice Wit style beer. Not the best out there, but not too shabby. Light, fresh and clean. Bit of sweetness and a little spiciness.  Nice, think of a beefed up Blue Moon.

AVERY BREWING COMPANY - The Kaiser Imperial Oktoberfest Lager 2014      Great Marzen style Octoberfest lager. Really enjoyed this one, nicely balanced, hides the 9.5% ABV well. This years version seems a little on the sweet side though.

#739

DOGFISH HEAD BREWERY - Red & White  Label states it is brewed with coriander and orange peel and fermented with pinot noir juice. ABV of 10%. Aroma is just what you would expect, coriander and pinot noir. First taste is strong pinot noir then you get a little fruit and finishes with a little spiciness. Well balanced, alcohol is well hidden. Really interesting.  Dogfish Head isnt afraid to do a little experimentation, thats for sure.

NEW GLARUS BREWING COMPANY - Home Town Blonde     This is a German Pilsner. Excellent.  Wheat with a little spice and maybe a little orange. Tastes the same.  Great balance, New Glarus definitely knows what their doing, another great offering.

STONE BREWING CO.  - Enjoy By 12-26-24 IPA     Perfect. Love the Enjoy By series, exactly what an IPA should be.

#736

BELLS BREWERY INC.  - Consecrator Doppelbock Beer      Really nice representation of the style. As roma is all malts, mostly caramel. Taste follows the nose, sweet malts, hint of dark fruits and a little chocolate with some breadiness.  Well done. Could drink these any time.

CORONADO BREWING COMPANY - Black Sails Black India Pale Ale.    Really nice aroma of grapefruit and some roastiness with just a hint of pine. Smooth, light and has a creamy feel to it.  Drinks nice and easy. Really nice balance in the flavor between the hops and malts, has a slightly bitter finish. I really enjoyed this one, wish Coronado distributed in Minnesota.
