Rating: *** (7.1 of 10)
Comments: Appropriately copper-colored, cloudy and bubbly this is an attractive beer. The taste is lovely – earthy with malty caramel and a nice bitter hop finish. A good well-balanced and drinkable beer.

Comments: This is a deep dark stout with a creamy foam head. It carries a smokey aroma and flavor that sets it apart and one that I really like. This is a robust and well-balanced beer.
Beer Review: Drifter Pale Ale

Rating: * (5.3 of 10)
Comments: This a cloudy amber beer with a whiff of hops and citrus. The flavor is bitter – a bit more bitter than I like – and that kind of overwhelms everything else. It’s a decent beer I suppose, but I wasn’t too crazy about it.
