Muted hop aroma. Slight tang flavor at first, that traditions to a moderate malt flavor. Very slight malt and hops flavor lingers. Overall fairly smooth and not very hoppy for an IPA.
4 out of 5 stars.

Lagunitas 2020 Born Yesterday Fresh Hop Pale Ale
Faint fresh hop aroma. Slight tang on first taste, that mellows really quickly. Pretty smooth finish that leaves a mild hop aftertaste.

Toppling Goliath Pseudo Sue Galaxy Dry Hop
Bright sweet hop aroma. Crisp bite of hops which transitions to full-mouth raw hop taste, then smooths into sweetness of yeast and clean malt. Super flavorful.
5 out of 5 stars.
Short’s Local’s Light
Faint sweet aroma, like fresh corn. Taste is slightly sweet with a quick sharpness to it of some non descript hop which quickly transitions to a smooth clean malt flavor. Very nice for this style. Not my favorite style (light lager), butt very solid.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Bell’s Larry’s Latest Juicy IPA
Faint sweet hop aroma. Crisp bite with a caramel crispness that’s distinct, but not too sweet. Very dry aftertaste with a palate cleansing bite from hops and the yeast. Very refreshing and tasty.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Short’s Heaven Scent
Sticky sweet aroma, very thick smelling. Smooth hop taste slides into the pallet with a mild clean malt taste following it. Finishes with a very faint yeast sweetness and bit of hop bitterness.
5 out of 5 stars.
OddSide Rum Ham
Strong alcohol smell along with a sticky sugary smell. Taste tweaks the taste buds then smooths quickly into a full palate dark malt flavor. Easy aftertaste with slight sweetness and a bit of dark malt. Fairly nice, surprisingly.

Clean and refreshing lager. Clean malt taste, clean yeast taste, with no sweetness in either. Slight hop edge to let you know hops are in there, but not hoppy.

Short’s Most Excellent Stellar
Bright and sticky hop aroma. Taste is a mix of caramel malt and slightly edgy hop bitterness. Aftertaste seems mild in comparison, with lingering alcohol-tinged maltiness and hop bitterness.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Lagunitas Hop Stoopid
Fresh, broad bouquet of floral hop aromas. Hop bitterness slides in soft at first, then builds. Ends with a full flavor of hops across the palate, falling to a slight sweetness and lingering hop bitterness.
Haven’t had this one in a long time. Nice to see I still enjoy it!
