Sierra Nevada 30th Anniversary - Fritz and Ken's Ale
This one's for Elwood because there's a 3% chance he could buy it, rather than the 0% chance like most of the beers on here.
A collaboration between Sierra and the founder of Anchor Steam.
Slightly sweet. Lots of coffee and chocolate in the taste. Slight bitterness. Pretty good, not my favorite though.

Bell's Two Hearted Ale
A highly enjoyable IPA. Incredibly distinctive taste in my opinion (if you've ever had it). Very drinkable, a nice floral nose. No real malt taste, just nice pine and citrus notes from the hops. A nice dry, bitter aftertaste.
Also, Mandy's go-to IPA. This is probably the most purchased 6 pack in our household (except for my recent Raging Bitch buying spree).

Brew Dog Bashah
A collaboration between Brew Dog and Stone Brewing. The bottle described it as a Black Belgian Style Double Indian Pale Ale.
A strong roasted malt flavor with a slightly bitter aftertaste. The hops is definitely present here. Not sure I'd describe it as an IPA of any sort, but I haven't had a "Black IPA" before.
Its slightly interesting, but I don't think I'd get another.

Souther Tier - Cherry Saison
Mandy - "Its nasty", "A beer I finally hate!", "Tastes like its gone bad", "Definitely fermented and not in a good way", "I'm full of gems!"
For that last one she was not referring to these gals.
My review isn't quite as negative, but its certainly not glowing. Its drinkable. A little sour, only a faint hint of cherries. Just tastes like a slightly tart light ale. :shrug.
