Almanac Cherry Picker
Saison - 6.8% ABV
Pete
     Not at all what I was expecting. It was pretty sour, kind of tastes like an oud bruin. Sour with some malty hints. No idea how they achieved that in a saison, but it's very good.

​Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's

Almanac Cold Brew Coffee Barrel Noir
Imperial Stout - 10.3% ABV
Pete
     This is a very good imperial stout. It is smokey and definitely has hints of vanilla. The flavor hides the booze well, but it's still a sipper because it's incredibly rich. That's probably for the best. It is expensive though, more so than other imperials, so that knocks it down a peg.

Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's

Almanac Golden Gate Gose
Gose - 5% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty mild, easy to drink beer. I was hoping it'd be more sour, and it didn't blow me away, but it's still good.
