Draft, Taco Mac. 2016 Southern Tier Zero Mile Atlanta Beer Week as usual. This has an orange color and a fruity, slightly acid feel. Lots of fruit and a bit of a sweet and sour note about it. Definitely a classic British Shandy element with string...
Southern Tier is a real Jekyll and Hyde brewery for me, with a range of beers that I have simultaneously enjoyed (Creme Brulee and Krampus), hated (Imperial Cherry Saison) and felt largely indifferent about (Phin & Matt's and 2XIPA). As such, I...
Blackwater Series. The 22 oz bottle pours like a brown ale. Some light highlights at the edges and a nicely sustained head although the lace is minimal. The beer is relatively bitter but it lacks a creamy body or a decent depth. It has a light but...
This is NOT an Old Ale in my book. I was actually expecting it to be labeled as a Winter Warmer, but it drinks more like an American IPA. On tap at The Irish Bred Pub in Douglasville, GA, USA. Great looking pour with the deep copper, mahogany body...
It seems as though Southern Tier has decided to jump on the IBA bandwagon since the tap handle for this now proudly displays the letters "iba" in a very prominent fashion and "Iniquity" in much smaller font. On tap, Taco Mac Douglasville, GA, USA....
12 oz single, Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. Hazed, orange pour with a bone-white head. Not much lace. Unusually light in color for a DIPA with almost a Hefe (or a least a wheat beer) look about it. Nose has sweet, sugary citrus which is replicated in...
Second time I have had this beer, this time on tap at Taco Mac, Douglasvile, GA, USA. Approx. 11 oz pour. Other review (with more notes) for reference, here; http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/3818/43687/?ba=Ding The beer does have a slightly...
Had this a few times in the last week or so, both on tap and from the bottle. Definitely preferred the draft version and this review reflects that serving style. Bright orange pour with a decent amount of cloudiness. Seems clearer on draught than...
22 oz bottle with a stick on label rather than the usual ST, screen printed presentation. Thanks to the wife for bringing this back from SC just a few days before ST hit GA - typical. Pour is an obvious orange color, but the two things that strike...
The wife was kind enough to cart this back from Hilton Head, SC for me, just a few days before ST hit GA - typical! 22oz bottle in the usual screen printed ST style. Pour is a beautiful, golden clear body with a smashing white head that gives some...
22 oz bottle, many thanks go out to Scott & Rich at Charleston Beer Exchange, Charleston, SC, USA for hooking me up and giving me the chance to try this one. Pour is a surprisingly dark, bronze color. Must be using some darker malts. Head is...
22oz silk-screened bottle. Winter 2008 bottling. Pour is as expected with a deep, black body and some nice, frothy, mocha colored head. Not a great deal of lace but considering the ABV not an issue. Brown highlights. Nose is surprisingly muted and...
22 oz bottle, $6.99 from Green's, Greenville, SC, USA. Pour is a bright, golden-orange body that sits underneath a rocky head with great retention. Nose gives quite a lot of syrupy, sugar alcohol and a touch of the hops. Tastes are quite a subtle...
22 oz bottle from Jim - cheers. ST is a bit hit and miss to say the least with me, so it's always an interesting experience to open up a beer of theirs that I've no had before. Pour yields a clear golden body with a frothy head. The whole thing...
22 oz bottle from Charleston Beer Exchange, Charleston, SC, USA. $8.99. A blend (or at least some mixture) of the Jahva and the Choklat. Black, stout like body with a nice mocha head, decent retention and some lace. Ruby red highlights at the...
Absolutely do not understand this beer in the slightest. Firstly there is a huge reference to cherries from the name through to the picture of the giant fruit on the bottle, and secondly there is the oaking of the beer which, even before I tasted...
Updated Review 09/12/10 - 2010 vintage Having been totally convinced in the past that the smell and the look of this beer were always better than the taste, in 2010 with the higher ABV, I feel a few things are quite different than they have been in...
Well, it's certainly an extraordinary beer and I like it - quite a lot! 22 oz bomber shared with a few of the usual suspects down at The Brick Store, Decatur, GA, USA. I like to share when I can, and this seemed like the PERFECT beer (22 oz of pure...
22oz bomber. Thanks go out to todprokp7 for the chance to try this one. Very surprised by this. I was expecting much more of a hoppy (and importantly for the stlye) drier affair here, perhaps even something that resembled a DIPA. However what I got...
Thanks go out to Robert for providing these samples at a recent Brick Store tasting. 22oz bottle. I've got to say right off the bat, that a beer at nearly 13% ABV kind of puts me off right from the beginning. Coupled with such a potentially...
22oz bomber (partially) into the Terrapin 22oz snifter - a nice combo! Picked this one up at State Line. Pour is a mid to dark orange with a nice head from the aggressive pour (I thought the aggression would be a good idea because with the ABV the...
12oz bottle as part of the mixed 12 pack - thanks go out to Rob for the chance to try this. Different label to the one in the BA db. Standard dark brown pour with a small, nicely formed head but not much (if any) lace. Solid if unspectacular look....
22oz bottle. Many, many thanks to mikesgroove for this gift well ahead of Southern Tier making it to GA. Opening the bottle (even before pouring) reveals a very strong chocolate aroma. It has a cocoa, drinking chocolate, dryish element to it. Small...
Part of a mixed 12 pack (along with the Porter, Raspberry Wheat and Phin & Matt's). 12oz bottle. Pretty much a perfect example of the style. Light orange, slightly hazed pour with a large, bone-white, billowing head. Lots of sticky lace - a classic...
12oz bottle as part of the Southern Tier mixed 12 pack with IPA, Porter and Phin & Matt's making up the remainder. Given to me as a Xmas present - Cheers Rob. Macro colored pour, but better than average carbonation, with a small, perfectly formed...
Incredibly orange, cloudy pour with a substantial, billowing, white head that left some pleasing lacing. Hoppy aroma that isn't very well replicated in the taste. Typically American Pale Ale in both appearance and taste, this beer is no more or...
