Heavy Seas Loose Cannon has a fruity aroma that is all over the place. I can detect apricot and citrus in the aroma.

The color is a golden shade with a touch of red.

The flavors is a little sweet with hops walking all over your tongue. It has a pineapple taste that fills the mouth. The hops are very mellow for how much they fill the flavor especially given the label having “Hops3 IPA” on it.

I actually enjoy the beer, but many people will not be happy with the mellowness of the hops.

You need to watch this beer given it has a 7.25% ABV.

St-Ambroise Oatmeal Stout pours with little to no head. The colors are dark with a hint of red in the edge of the glass.

The aroma has a smoky malt to it.

The flavors are dry and mixed with coffee and chocolate malts.

I would recommend this beer for anyone look for a good stout.

Bar Harbor’s Cadillac Mountain Stout has a nice black color that shows no sign of letting light through the beer.

The aroma is filled with chocolate tones.

The head is minimal, but it is just right for this stout.

The flavors starts with a chocolate malt and rolls off the tongue with a crisp finish.

The body is very thin, which goes very well with this beer.

The ABV of 6.7 is nice. It could almost be a session beer.

Sinebrychoff’s Porter has a deep black color with a little foam.

There is a mocha aroma, which continues into the taste. It starts with chocolate flavors and finishes with bitters.

The body is middle of the road with a little bias towards heavy.

Fuller’s London Pride is a pale ale that is very crisp from the start through the finish.

The aroma is minimal, but what it has is bias to a hop aroma.

The flavors start with mild tartness coupled with malt on the front of the tongue. These flavors quickly fade and turn to hops. The hops flavors fill the back of the mouth adding to the aromas from earlier.

The color is around 15 on the SRM scale. I would call it a dark golden wheat.

This is a wonderful session beer with an ABV of 4.7%. Generally, I always have this beer in my refrigerator. Also, it is rated second highest with style.

O’Dempsey’s Inukshuk IPA is a very good IPA.

It has a very full hop flavor throughout the taste. The malt backbone is very hidden, but the hops are very well balanced.

My nose is off today, but in the past, the aroma is normally wonderful. There is a very nice citrus.

The beer is actually a very inexpensive beer for having an ABV of 7%. I got mine for $4 at a bar.

Great Divide Brewing’s Samurai is rice ale, as they call it, that is unfiltered.

The aroma is of a mild hop. The color is a very golden shade of yellow and I would put it at somewhere around 5 to 6 on the SRM scale.

The flavor has a mild sweetness throughout, which is complimented by a crispness that is from start to finish.

This is a very enjoyable beer. It would make a wonderful session beer or summer drink for those hot days. (Today, it is 64°F here.)

Great Divid Brewing’s Denver Pale Ale (DPA) starts with an slightly earthy aroma from the hops. A very minor blueberry aroma was detected by my daughter, which I agree with.

The color is about a 14 on the SRM scale. I would call it a golden tan.

The flavor is assertive for a pale ale, but it did come from Colorado where ever beer is hoppier than the style calls.

There is a good maltiness that is throughout the beer’s flavor.

I would suggest this beer if you want a full flavored pale ale with a strong malt backbone.

Great Divide Brewing’s Titan IPA starts with the aroma as all IPA’s do. The aroma is a strong citrus with a bias towards a mild grapefruit. The brewer indicates a piney aroma, but this bottle had very little that I detected, but I did just stir the fire before tasting this beer (not that I burn pine mind you).

The color is a dark golden wheat with a little haze. I would say a 12 to 14 on the SRM scale.

The taste has a very mild sweetness at the start followed by a quick crispness of hops. The finish has the sweetness reappear mixed with the fullness of these hop flavors.

The brewer suggests pairing the beer with halibut, which I agree that this beer would very good with fish.

I find this beer very enjoyable and I don’t find the hops to too over bearing.

McNeill’s Firehouse Amber Ale has a nice hoppy aroma.

The flavor starts with bold malt bite with a hoppiness mixed right in with the initial flavors.

The beer may be past it’s prime as the “best before last day” mark is on August. I purchased it in October so some distributor most likely or a retail wasn’t doing their job. The beer had a lot of suspended particles. But, the beer didn’t have any strong off flavors. There was a little tangy flavor in the back of the mouth.

Hopefully, I will get a chance to try a fresher batch in the future.
