Carlsbad, CA Pete - I've been here a few times. It's a little off the beaten path. Decent sized taproom with a pretty large selection of beers.
Burgeon Barrel Aged Dutchman's Pipe 2022 Imperial Stout - 12% ABV Pete This is unreal. Coffee, vanilla, and bourbon, in that order. A little bitterness too, and not sweet.
Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's
Burgeon Juice Press New England IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete Super tropical pretty creamy IPA. Excellent beer that's pretty widely available at bars (and is usually the best thing there).
Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's
Burgeon Keep It Mosaic West Coast IPA - 6.5% ABV Pete Really great beer that has a little bit of a lot of different things going on. Light body with some earthiness, dank, and citrus to it and just a hint of bitter.
Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's
Burgeon Perpetual Burst New England IPA - 6.4% ABV Pete Pretty dank, which I love. Also creamy and a little juicy. That all would be an unreal beer, but it has an odd sweetness to it that keeps it from standing out too much.
Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's
Burgeon Treevana West Coast IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete Very solid west coast IPA. Bitter, floral, earthy, but not malty, which I like.
