A Kennesaw Georgia beer for my son-in-law in Texas. I've had this before but it was back in 2019. Can has a much better design now. Gave it a good rating back then, hope I don't change my mind. This is an imperial stout but it comes out of the can translucent like a cola. Doesn't seem at all heavy and can actually see light through it. Aroma doesn't give much help. Some malt, a little spice, not much else. Texture as expected, not heavy or syrupy, pretty light for an imperial stout. But it does have plenty of flavor. First I get some mild cinnamon. That's followed by a deep roasted malt and some light graham cracker. The finish leaves those flavors behind and chocolate and coffee take the stage. That was all pretty good. But the surprise came in the later sips. The flavors kept changing places. Later the graham cracker dominated the start with chocolate behind it and then deep roasted cinnamon coffee. Along the third sip that 9% alcohol started to create a little spicy burn. These flavors continued throughout the beer to shift around, staying distinctive and separate but changing their places in order. Unique is an understatement. I'll remember this beer for a long time.

Duo beer with my son-in-law. This one from Burnt Hickory Brewery in Kennesaw Georgia. Beer explodes out of the can for both of us. Pours with a moderately high thick foamy head. Deep red amber color. Very hazy, surprising for this bock. Flavor is spicy, like cinnamon, not sweet, no honey perceptible. Finish turns sour. This does not seem like a bock beer at all. Flavor is flat and unappealing. Did not even want to finish after only half of glass. Not a good beer at all and will not recommend it.

Pours with a very high, slightly tan head. Deep orange in color and hazy. Has an amber aroma. Has a slight citrus flavor, not as hoppy as I was expecting for an imperial IPA. Pretty good for a hot beach day.

This is a limited edition taproom only release, or at least that's what it says on the can. ( A gift from my son.) Has a moderately high head, doesn't last. Pours to a deep lemon color, very hazy. Strong orange citrus aroma. Citrus flavor is supposed to be orange creamsicle, but tastes more like tangerine to me. Has your typical IPA hoppiness to it. Very good.

I have had the Big Shanty beer before. Had it as the last of a good selection of stouts tonight. When comparing to other stouts the graham cracker it says it has does faintly come to the surface. Still a little dry but still a very good beer. My rating on it probably has gone up a little.

Not much head. Tan and short. Fruity aroma. Taste has chocolate, I get the cherries, maybe some raspberries but not as strong as others taste. Definite burnt quality. Finish is sweet and fruity, mostly the cherries. Very good mix when trying for something unique. Will recommend this one.

This is a Blood Orange IPA. Had it on the water out of the can. I usually use a glass but sometimes you just have to go for it. Refreshing on a hot day, citrusy of course, still a little on the hoppy side. Can't complain when you're out on the water with family.

Wow! Monster high, very foamy head that lasts and lasts. Yellow color and hazy. Citrusy aroma. Very smooth, slightly bitter, mildly citrus flavor. Finish is a little bitter and lasts a while. Good for an IPA.
