(draft) A cloudy beer with a slightly pinkish tint. If it had any actual flavor I'd decribe it here, but alas, there was none. A waste of time.

(draft) I had high hopes for this one. Blueberry flavor in a beer would definitely be something new and unusual for me. This actually ended up being my least favorite beer of the weekend. It tasted to me like an IPA. If there was any berry component to the flavor it was too subtle for me to detect it behind all the damn hops.

(draft) This might have been sweet and syupy or it might have been all the blueberries floating up and down. I couldn't finish the glass. Those things hitting my lips were just too strange.

(draft) A light brown ale (think Newcastle) with a wedge of watermelon in it. Once I removed the offending fruit I couldn't detect anything noteworthy. Maybe a bit of a hoppy finish.

(bottle) Clear light amber. Large whitish head. Not much of an aroma or flavor with this one. Everything was very subtle - too subtle. I don't think I'll bother with this again. Decent is all I can say.

(draft) Slightly hazy golden. Looked like a lager. Aroma and flavor of, as the name suggests, orange lolipops. Mouthfeel was smooth and creamy. Not nearly as bad as I was expecting it to be. Actually decent.

(bottle) Hazy amber, with an odd aroma of pumpkin and rubber. Flavor of pumpkin and something familiar, yet unidentified. Musty and decent.

(bottle) Slightly hazy orange. Nice aroma of pumpkin and spices. Flavor much more tame than the aroma led me to believe, but still very good. The expected pumpkin and spices, leaning a but more toward the former. Very good.

A stout, not just an ale, which was news to me. I didn't get much of an aroma from this, and the blueberry flavor was more subtle that I was expecting. The blueberries showed up mostly in the finish, which had absolutely no trace of bitterness. The undertones were mostly roasted malt, and the flavor slanted a tad more towards coffee than chocolate. A very good beer, worth the wait.

(bottle) Cloudy reddish amber. Not much head. Aroma of musty yeast and alcohol and raspberries. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor of alcohol and raspberries. Noticeable alcohol burn at the finish, but tolerable. A gimmicky, but decent, beer.

(draft) Clear bronze. A thin tan head that faded quickly and left nice lacing behind. Besides the unusual (for me) pumpkin flavor, there was a strange bitterness that came and went before the finish. Once my tastebuds had become numb to the bitterness this was a pretty good beer.

(bottle) Clear dark orange. Nice head that lasted forever. Balanced aroma of pumpkin and spices. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor starts with pumpkin and finishes with spices. Just a hint of bitterness. Very good.

(bottle) Clear medium amber in color. Small head. Aroma of pumpkin and spices. The flavor was more spicy and metallic than I was expecting. There was also some hop bitterness that I didn't care for at all. Decent is all I can say.

(draft) Color of pale straw. Decent head and lacing. Light aroma of wheat and blueberry. Thin mouthfeel. Flavor of tap water and blueberry. Decent, but not good. No bitterness, but not much of anything at all. A more strongly flavored version would probably be very good.

(draft) Very dark red, with a light pink head that shrank but lasted. There was some discussion as to what the aroma was, and it was decided that this smells like Luden's cough drops. Flavor is cherries and cranberries. No alcohol burn at all. Quite good, but also quite strange.

(draft) Clear dark reddish brown. Huge head that lasted forever. Aroma and flavor both surpringly understated, with malts and a hint of cherries. Very smooth. Very good.

(bottle) Slightly hazy amber. Smallish head. Aroma of pumpkin and spices. Thin mouthfeel, but the flavor is very good. There's a bit of a bite - not bitter - that is a pleasant surprise. Very good.

(bottle) Clear copper in color. Small head that disippated almost immediately. A very nice aroma of cinnamon and other spices. Medium mouthfeel. Very good flavor of all sorts of spices and, of course, pumpkin. The 8% ABV is hidden very well. A very good beer.

(bottle) Hazy copper in color. No head to speak of, but some lacing. Fairly strong aroma of pumpkin and vanilla. There was a lagerish fizziness that I didn't care for, but the flavor was good and the finish was sweet and smooth. Pretty good.

(bottle) Fizzy orange with a white head that vanished quickly. Fairly strong blueberry aroma, along with light citrus. Creamy mouthfeel. Light flavor of malts and a hint of blueberries. A very slight bitterness at the finish that's almost immediately gone. Decent, almost good.

(bottle) Clean light copper. Zero head, I mean zero. Aroma of spices with a little pumpkin in the background. A little watery mouthfeel. Spices predominate the flavor. Not much pumpkin flavor. Decent is all I can say.

(bottle) Indigo with a nice tan head. Enticing aroma of peaches and plums. Mouthfeel a little thin but coating. Flavor more tame than the aroma led me to expect. Good though.

(draft) Clear amber in color, with a large white head. The aroma and the flavor were both of yeasts and malts, with a hint of blueberries. No bitterness. Could have had more flavor, but still pretty good.

(draft) Cloudy yellow/orange. A nice head that faded quickly. This is a very citrusy Belgian when it first enters the mouth, but then the pumpkin takes over and coats the mouth with sweetness, then there were some nice spices in the finish. Just yummy. It seemed like it had a high ABV, but its 10.5% still surprised me.

Clear copper. Whitish head that faded quickly. Aroma of, duh, pumpkin and spices. Medium mouthfeel. Spicy pumpkin flavor that fades and leaves a creamy finish. More spicy than pumpkiny. Damn good, though, at least on draft. I've had a bottle as well, and it kinda sucked.
