Is this the old 100 Barrel Series beer re-born? Has to be a good chance they are related. There's a LOT of alcohol here, 9.3% in fact. Nice clarity on the pour with a good, rocky white head considering the ABV. Some sticky lace too. Aroma is a...
Did this beer later become this? Maybe. Over recent years I've lost track of the 100 Barrel Series somewhat. There's just so much beer to hand these days, and I don't think all of the series makes it to GA anyway. Coupled with the fact some are not...
12 oz bottle, courtesy of shogokawada. Pour is a very rich looking, black color but does not have too much viscosity. Thin, creamy film forms on the surface of the beer. Initial tastes give some nice chocolate malts and a healthy does of booze....
22 oz bottle, gold foil with the usual 100 Barrel series presentation. Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. Strange one this. I think if you had given me this in a blind taste taste I would have sworn it was Yeungling! Now, you can take that any way that...
OK, it's not brewed in England and it's NOT a cask offering, and I could still be happy if it was taken down another 0.5% on the ABV, BUT, on the face of it this at least has the potential to help me out in my desperate and generally futile search...
Filtered wheat beer in the 12 oz bottle as a single from Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. $1.19. The appearance is as expected with a decent head but little or no retention. Filtering means good clarity but somewhat lacking in character for me...
Many thanks to DrDogBeer for the chance to try this as part of 2009 Secret Santa. Shared at The Brick Store. Pour is a fairly standard, mid-chocolate brown color with a better than expected head. Retention and lace are OK, not great, but OK. Nose...
On-tap, Taco Mac Metropolis, Atlanta, GA, USA. 16 oz pour. Solid orange color, tight head with some good retention and lace. Looks as it should. Big whiff of (what appears at first) to be a "West Coast" style hop profile. This does get toned down a...
22 oz bottle with the usual 100 Barrel Series label presentation. Poured this one into the 0.5 L Harpoon IPA, reverse flared Stange-like glass. Pretty standard, deep copper colored pour with a bit of a disappointing head and very little lace. Even...
12oz single from Mac's Midtown, Atlanta, GA, USA. Part of a mixed $7.99 sixer. I hated the regular UFO (thought it was AWFUL on draft and in the bottle), so I was worried about this. Poured into the Sweetwater Pilsner glass it has a pretty good...
22 oz bomber, as part of a recent trade - sorry, I forgot who - gold foiled neck, typical series presentation. Poured into the oversized wine glass. Hazy orange pour with a soap film on the surface. Alcohol legs, but no head as such. Sweet malty...
Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. $4.99, 22oz bomber, gold foiled top presentation as usual for the series. A mixed bag for the appearance; great, deep garnet color with good clarity, but the almost complete lack of carbonation, head and lace is...
Thanks to Brewfan for a chance to try this. 22 oz bomber, gold foiled top. Surprised at the simplicity of this beer considering it is part of the 100 series. Not that that it is a bad thing; in fact it's refreshing, but I did not expect such a brew...
12oz single from Mac's Downtown, Atlanta, GA, USA. Best Before 11/22/07, dot-matrixed on the neck. Not quite sure why this is listed as an American Amber/Red in the BA db since it is called Octoberfest, drinks like a malty Oktoberfest brew and it...
12 oz single from Jax, Sandy Springs, Roswell Rd, Atlanta, GA, USA. $1.39. Jax in SS is a long, long way from the best store in the ATL but the ability to split sixers keeps bringing me back in when I am passing. Copper colored pour with great...
Another one of those beers that I've had plenty of times but have never got around to reviewing. This one was bought at the Mellow Mushroom, Hilton Head Island, SC, USA. Pour is a decent mid-orange with a pleasing amount of lace and head. Nice...
Delicious and simple. Deep and rich flavors with a great body and a tasty finish make this super-drinkable. Sweet, but a little bit of hop balance helps it a great deal. Lovely deep brown, rich pour with a nice head and some decent retention and...
I've been waiting a long time to try this. I was NOT disappointed. The presentation is classy. Love the gold foil and the simple complexity (if that makes sense) of the label. It seems to promise much and give the impression of a premium...
Nice, if somewhat reserved Winter Warmer. Pour is standard, with a decent red/brown color, nice head and a little lacing. Mouthfeel and body are both pretty light, and I found the spices really rather reserved. Unlike some of this style, this is a...
Wheat appearance. Weird. Large, fluffy head. Good lace. Dry, slightly lemony and tart. Light, easy drinking. Lacks herbal notes promised on label. Definitely wheat notes here. That was unexpected. A lot of floral notes, sometimes a little too much...
Additional notes 12/05/04 - bottle version Thought I would give this another chance following my review of the draught version earlier in the year. I shouldn’t have bothered. This beer is thin, watery, pale and close to tasteless. It reminds me of...
A sweet, malty taste is the pervading experience with this brew. Some decent carbonation but little or no head, with unsurprisingly little or no lacing. Enjoyable, but you would need to enjoy the maltier side of things to really appreciate this...
