Peaotch (Midnight Project Collaboration #4)

Peaotch (Midnight Project Collaboration #4)

The latest in the Midnight Project Series (brew four) from the Left Hand and Terrapin collaboration. More, somewhat juvenile naming. Label describes this as "Ale with Peaches added'. Brewed with peaches form Georgia and Colorado. They grow peaches...

Fade To Black Volume 1 – Foreign Export Stout

Fade To Black Volume 1 – Foreign Export Stout

12 oz single. Been holding on to this one since the original release. Time to have a crack at it now. Pour is an impressive jet black body with a tight head of very fine bubbles. Nice looking head and decent retention and lace. Nose releases some...

Midnight Project #3 Oxymoron

22 oz bottle. Well, this certainly lives up to the name, a strange beer to say the least. I don't quite know how to describe this, but it drinks like a dry, hoppy Märzen. It's odd because the last thing that you would associate with a lager of that...

400 Pound Monkey

12 oz single from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. My worry with all beers that start life in the USA and claim to be "English" style, is that we will get over-hopped products with alcohol that is too high and malt profiles that are insufficiently...

Smoke Jumper Smoked Imperial Porter

Smoke Jumper Smoked Imperial Porter

‎22 oz bottle. ‎ I'm not an enormous fan of smoked beers in general, BUT it could be argued that if you are ‎going to smoke anything, the Imperial Porter would be a great candidate. ‎ Pour is impresive. Black with a few reddish highlights and a...

Chocolate Starfish

A bit of background to this review. I ordered the beer at The Porter in Little Five, Atlanta, GA, USA. A few minutes later I was joined by a friend of mine who knows very little about beer and ‎started engaging the barman about what to order and...

Left Hand Oktoberfest

12 oz bottle as a single from Total Wine, Perimeter, Atlanta, GA, USA. If the truth be known, disappointed considering the usual quality of Left Hand beers and my general enjoyment of the style. In an O'fest I'm looking for a few key...

Polestar Pilsner

12 oz single from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. In summary I was very surprised at how "macro" like this was. There were very large corn and vegetal notes in both the nose and the tastes, and a really distinct lack of sharp, crisp hop notes. The lack...

St. Vrain Tripel

22 oz bottle from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. Pour is a wheat, colored, light yellow hazed body. Head is disappointingly thin and lacks presence. Unfortunately this is a feature of the beer - a lack of depth and presence. Lots of banana notes more...

Haystack Wheat

$1.50 as a 12oz from Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. Obviously a clouded orange appearance but to be honest it looks a little weak and watery. Head is non-existent, and does not provide any lace or retention. Nose is probably the best attribute...

Terra-Rye’ZD Black Rye Lager

$7.99 form Green's on Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA. 22oz bomber. Pour is impressive with a high, towering tan head and nice ruby red, highlighted black/brown body. Lace is fantastic; sticky, copious and thick. So far so good. Bags of great malts in the...

Chainsaw Ale

750 mL corked & caged bottle. Cloudy and hazed mid-orange/brown body. Nice head, some sticky lace. The color and lack of clarity make this a somewhat unattractive beer. Looks a bit drab. Head and lace are better than the color. Nose reveals a huge,...

Smoked Goosinator Doppelbock

750mL corked and caged affair - silk screened bottle. 2007 vintage, bottle conditioned. Nice looking, brownish-red body in keeping with the style. Head is large and smoke colored (yellowish tinge). Head is a bit light and airy so it disappears very...

Left Hand Rye Bock Lager

750 mL corked & caged. The Wine Shop, Johnson Ferry Road, Marietta, GA, USA. 2007 (bottle conditioned) vintage. Took a long time to remove the cage, and when I finally did, this one had a lot of carbonation. Poured into the 20 oz pint glass....

Deep Cover Brown Ale

12oz bottle as a single from my recent trip to NC/SC - probably from Total Wine. Pour is a dark orange and lacks the brown clarity that I look for in a Brown Ale - a bit murky for my liking. Head is short lived and lace is pretty much absent. A...

Good Juju (Ginger Ale)

Taco Mac on the East West Connector, Austell, Atlanta, GA, USA. 12 oz bottle. Dated what looked like 08/28/05 but it was smudged. Almost certainly past its best. Essentially this is an American Pale Ale with a splash of ginger flavoring in it. Very...

Snowbound Winter Ale

22 oz bomber, Green's, Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA. Lovely dark brown and noisy pour with a massive nose emanating across the room. All the spices are there, nutmeg though cinnamon through all spice through orange zest. Delicious. Tastes are all the...

Sawtooth Ale

On tap Taco Mac, Decatur, GA, USA. $5.00. Light, APA mid orange color with a lot of chill haze. Extremely mild citrus hop flavor with some orange or lemon notes. Served way too cold and as a result the aroma is difficult to pick up, but whatever it...

Twin Sisters Double IPA

$9.99 Green's, Atlanta, GA, USA. 2006 bottle conditioned vintage, tall, longnecked, dark olive green bottle, 750 mL corked and caged with screened label. Pain in the ass, tightly twisted cage - the most difficult I have ever had to open. Anyway,...

Left Hand Milk Stout

Pictured 4/26/25, nitro pour, The Packard Taphouse, Fort Wayne, IN, USA There really probably is almost 19 years between me making the notes below and the latest tasting. Not a beer that I ever gravitated towards years ago and the nitro delivery...

Left Hand Imperial Stout

Appearance lacks the deep black opaque nature that one would expect from the style, and in fact there are red and brown highlights and a rather thin mouthfeel considering the RIS moniker. Thin spotty head, and a lack of lacing. Very strong alcohol...

Warrior IPA

Very clear, orange body with some significant streams of carbonation coming from the bottom of the glass. Large, fluffy and rocky head with some layered and sticky lacing. Good looker without a doubt. Nose is VERY strong with huge hops of the pine...
