Bent Water Agganis
New England IPA - 5.5% ABV
Pete
     Super dry and very bubbly. It's champagne-like, and I love that.

Bent Water Don The Armor
Imperial New England IPA - 8% ABV
Pete
     Collaboration with Czarface (not really sure what that is). Orange and mango flavors come through, on the sweet side. It has a hint of booziness to it as well, but in a good way, just to let you know it's there.

Bent Water Electric Kool-Aid
Sour - ?% ABV
Pete
     You get a tiny bit of beer flavor, and much more of both sour and fruit flavor that are nicely balanced. This is quite good.

Bent Water Felix
Session IPA - 4.8% ABV
Pete
     This beer falls into 'less alcohol, less flavor' category of session beers. You get a little bit of the hops, and it's nice, but it's just not enough to set itself apart.

Bent Water Jolene
Porter - 5.4% ABV
Pete
     Very good roasty porter. Not too heavy, could drink a bunch.

Bent Water Kathleen
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV
Pete
     I honestly didn't notice that I drank this. I guess that means it was OK, and not too bitter. You don't get a lot of imperial IPA's that you don't notice drinking.

Bent Water Kettle Sour - Mango Guava
Sour - 4.7% ABV
Pete
     Pretty tart, nice fruitiness and a little bit salty. There is some light beer-like flavor, but there isn't enough of it for me to dislike the beer.

Bent Water Lady Vacay
Blonde - 5% ABV
Pete
​     The saltiness is a bit odd at first almost giving it a sour feel. Ultimately, it grew on me and went down extremely fast. I'd drink it again.

Ben Water Pearl
Pale Wheat Ale - 5.4% ABV
Pete
     Easy to drink, not a huge amount of flavor. Exactly what you want in a wheat.

Bent Water Relic 28 Bourbon Barrel
Imperial Stout 11.2% ABV
Pete
     Smells like pure bourbon. The beer is shockingly light and drinkable. Definitely bourbon forward but not nearly as thick as you'd expect from a stout this big.

Bent Water Sluice Juice
New England IPA - 6.5% ABV
Pete
     Super juicy and hazy without being too thick. Tons of flavor at an approachable ABV and no bitterness. I had this during the day, and it was a great choice.

Bent Water Suborbital
New England Pale Ale - 4.7% ABV
Pete
     Super drinkable and quite fruity. It's basically a toned down version of Sluice Juice. Slightly less flavor, and less alcohol. Perfect for day drinking.

Bent Water Thunder Funk
IPA - 7.2% ABV
Pete
     Very good piney IPA that packs a pretty good punch. Hint of maltiness in the back of it too. Fun fact: this picture was taken about 20 minutes after I bought an engagement ring. Needed something to calm the nerves.

Bent Water Viskiss
Pale Ale - 5.2% ABV
Pete
     This is a solid pale ale. The dominant flavor is definitely hops, but it also has a nice background of malty sweetness that you'd expect from a beer that's a little darker. It's not too strong, and it goes down pretty easy, so it works well for outdoor drinking.

Bent Water X-15
Milk Stout - 5.1% ABV
Pete
     Definitely a rich stout, pretty thick. It doesn't have as much flavor as I'd prefer, but it's still pretty good, with hints of chocolate and sweetness.
