Sweetwater Spinnerbait

12oz single from the six pack. Not sure that I'm keen on the Belgian Style Red Ale moniker, but this is what I have to live with in America. On the plus side, this beer does drink like a Lightly hopped American red that has been made with Belgian...

Hop Hash

Hop Hash

12 oz bottle, last one in the six pack. Very reminiscent of Sticky Nugs. Pale golden pour. Good sticky, white head, all is in place. Nice rich, hoppy oil, nose, which is replicated in the initial tastes. Very drinkable with lots of malt backbone to...

Take Two Pils

Take Two Pils

I always feel a little guilty about my relationship with Pilsners since I have relatively stringent criteria for me to be satisfied. Do we have complete, unfiltered clarity? Do we have clean edges? Do we have decent carbonation and lasting head an...

Sweetwater Crank Tank Helles Lager

Sweetwater Crank Tank Helles Lager

On-tap notes 10/10/13 Happy to move away from the rye. Not that I didn't like that beer, but a break is good too. Decent bitterness crisp and light highly drinkable. Light haze some mid-level carbonation enough to keep me interested. Some carbonate...

Sweetwater Brewing Co. LowRYEder IPA

Sweetwater Brewing Co. LowRYEder IPA

I am assuming that this is a re-birth of the Crank Tank Rye'd Ale from the fall of 2010. I've got to be honest right off the bat here, I generally do NOT like rye beers. The harsh, bitter, peppery notes that the spice delivers is usually not to my...

Sweetwater Dank Tank Border Hopper

Sweetwater Dank Tank Border Hopper

22oz bottle, usual Dank Tank presentation. The usual nonsense written on the bottle (pointless) and this one comes with a similar (if not identical) green color as Wet Dream. Very attractive clarity on the mid-orange body. Good lace, nice retention...

Sweetwater Dank Tank Wet Dream

Sweetwater Dank Tank Wet Dream

22oz bottle, $5.99 from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA. Same Dank Tank presentation, this time with a green and white color scheme (DP Red/White, BOBBB Blue/White). This beer has been described to me in many ways, the most frequent being an "Imperial...

Sweetwater Dank Tank Big Ol’ Belgian Blue Balls

Sweetwater Dank Tank Big Ol’ Belgian Blue Balls

22 oz bottle with the same basic artwork as the bottled DP but with a blue & white theme rather than the red & white. $5.79 from Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. I agree that the associated text on the bottle in relation to the name has...

Sweetwater Brewing Dank Tank Double IPA

Sweetwater Brewing Dank Tank Double IPA

Dank Tank #3 sampled at The Porter, Little Five, Atlanta, GA, USA yesterday afternoon. Small, Wellington style glass pour, perhaps eight ounce. Golden hazed body, on the lighter side of things in terms of the shade. Small head, but it produces...

Sweetwater Dank Tank Ron Burgundy Scotch Ale

DELIBERATELY added as a different beer to the cask, Johnnie Walker chip-soaked version, this beer was drunk on tap at Taco Mac, Douglasville, GA, USA. #2 in the Dank Tank series (The Creeper was #1). Regular keg version NOT the cask, flavored one....

Sweetwater Donkey Punch

Followed up my bottle review of last week with a sampling of this on draft at Taco Mac on the East West Connector in Austell, Atlanta, GA, USA. Small (10oz??) serving for $4.00 - good value. ($4.50 for a 16oz pour at Taco Mac, Douglasville, GA, USA...

Sweetwater Donkey Punch

$8.49 from Green's, Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA. MIGHTY impressive looking bottle - the old flip-top 1 L bottles used for Festive Ale. Homebrewers LOVE these bottles. Gold Foil tops off the package impressively. Pour is a slightly cloudy mid-brown...

Sweetwater Festive Ale

2009 Vintage - on tap, Taco Mac, Douglasville, GA, USA. Again less spice than some of the first vintages and this year more licorice flavors. Still drinking well though. === 2006 Vintage - on tap. Taco Mac Linbergh City Center, $4.50. Still the...

Sweetwater
IPA

Pictured 04/09/21 Original notes 08/10/06 Living in Atlanta it's sometimes easy to forget what a nice beer this is, especially when fresh and on tap. I had one of these at Mellow Mushroom in Douglasville, GA, USA for $3.50 for 16 oz. Color is more...

Sweetwater Dubbel D’s

On-tap, Taco Mac, Decatur, GA. Small tulip serving. If this truly is a Dubbel it's the best looking one that I have seen ever! It was a mid-brown, with a small head and most delightfully, it was crystal clear. It lacked the nasty, murky dishwater...

Sweetwater Hummer (bottle)

Very, very nice, 100% drinkable and a perfect complement to the Atlanta heat that is slowly, but steadily, rising here in mid-May. From the bottle a large frothy, rocky head adorns the orange haze below it. Definite relationship between the orange...

Sweetwater Brewing Dank Tank Double IPA

Sweetwater IPA

$7.19, Publix Supermarket, Villa Rica, GA, USA. Took me a long time to get around to reviewing this. I've been treating this as a good staple to pick up around Atlanta for some time. Pours a slightly hazy, orange color with a frothy head. The aroma...
