Baxter Amber Road
Amber Ale - 5.5% ABV
Pete
     I did not like this beer at all. It has flavor, so I suppose if you really like amber ales you might like this one.

Baxter Baxter Gose Japan
Gose - 4% ABV
Pete
     I have no idea why, but this beer just smells really bad. You'd think yuzu and candied ginger would be a nice smell, but apparently not. Tastes like a solid gose. I'd drink again, just avoid too many sniffs.

Summer Ale - 4.7% ABV

     This one isn't very good. It is too limey.

Baxter Pamola Xtra Pale Ale
Pale Ale - 4.9% ABV
Pete
     This is a nice, crisp beer. It is a little bitter, but finishes very smooth. It is very easy to drink.

Baxter Pinot Brune
Fruited Sour - 6.5% ABV
Pete
     Really tasty. A tiny bit sour and a good amount of fruitiness. The grape and cherry definitely come through nicely, but not overly sweet at all.

Baxter Prost Secco
Sour - 5.3% ABV
Pete
     Pretty mild sour that goes down super easy. Enough flavor to set itself apart while it disappears in front of you.

Baxter Stowaway IPA
IPA - 6.9% ABV
Pete
     This is an above average IPA with very good hop flavor.

Baxter Summer Swelter
Shandy - 4.7% ABV
Pete
     This is a solid summer beer. It leans more toward beer with a hint of lemon than most shandies. This would be great for some outdoor drinking while firing up the grill.

Baxter Wicked Dark
Imperial Stout - 10% ABV
Pete
     Extremely rich delicious stout. Toffee flavor that borders on a tasting charred. Definitely get some booze in the finish, be prepared, it's a sipper.

Baxter Window Seat
Porter - 6% ABV
Pete
     Disclaimer: I was very drunk when I had this, and only had a sip. I do remember that one sip being delicious, and thinking that it was an extremely strong flavor of vanilla, which I liked. Obviously reading the can, it appears it is coconut and almond, but who am I to complain. Generally not a coconut fan, but apparently it worked here, because I loved it. Plus, I always take the window seat.

I had this a 2nd time, less drunk, and yeah, way too much coconut. Revising my review from 6 to 4.
