DC Brau - El Hefe

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Not as much of a "hefeweizen" flavor as I remember. Its more like a happy middle ground between a hefeweizen and an american wheat ale. Its good. I wouldn't buy another bottle, but I'd get it on draft again.

Devil's Backbone - Vision Quest

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Lots of sage. Not in a pleasant way. I had a glass of dry-hopped cask Stillwater Cellar Door (see barrel aged review here) before this that was awesome. This is just overwhelming. Would not recommend.

Smuttynose - Really Old Brown Dog

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


This is actually more enjoyable than expected. A touch of smokiness to it? A little thinner than I expected. Still nice and rich & malty. I'd get another bottle.

DC Brau - On the Wings of Armageddon

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Enjoyable, but not worth the price for a bottle. On draft it's a lot more reasonable and I'd get it again without hesitation. Not super bitter. Some biting grapefruit to it. Not super sweet. Just not worth $9 for a bottle.

Edit: There's word on the street that they're going to start canning this! This will be far and away the best beer they have regularly available. Hopefully its at $10 a six pack like their other brews are.

Boulevard - Tank 7

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


A fairly hoppy and bitter saison/belgian pale ale. Easy drinking. Enjoyable enough. I'd consider getting it again.
