Short’s Uber Goober
Dark stout aroma. Slightly crisp flavor bite with a hint of the alcohol. Mainly tastes like a heavy stout, with hints of peanuts. Fades into an aftertaste that is a mix of dark malt roastiness and peanut flavor. Overall finishes fairly dry/clean.

Sweet, mild aroma of some hops and caramel malt. Slight edge of hops on first taste, but quickly overtaken but a smooth caramel malt flavor. Goes down fairly smoothly, almost slick-like, with a kick of hop bitterness at the very end.

Greenbush Anger
Sweet aroma of hops and yeast. Taste is smooth and sweet, with a hint of dark malt flavor. Aftertaste is mix of dark malt and yeast sweetness, with a hint of fruity hops way in the background.
Date on bottom of can is 9/22/20, drinking on 4/10/2021, so it’s a bit past prime. Maybe fresher would have more hop presence.
