Finback A Thousand Years
Imperial Stout - 10.3% ABV Pete This is extremely good. It is a little bitter in the finish. Going down it's just tons of chocolate and toffee, super rich. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback BQE '17
Russian Imperial Stout - 9.2% ABV Pete Amazing. Rich, chocolatey, just plain delicious. It's not going to go down too quick, since it's so thick, but it's strong, so it doesn't have to. Savor it. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback BQE '18
Imperial Stout - 10% ABV Pete Bourbon barrel aged imperial stout with sea salt and caramel. It tastes exactly like it sounds. Unreal. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Finback Brand New Family
Kölsch - 5.2% ABV Pete This is a nice, very easy to drink beer. It doesn't have a ton of flavor, but it goes down smooth. I drank it so fast that I forgot to take a picture. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Canada Spritz
Imperial Brut IPA - 8.5% ABV Pete Really tasty, extremely dry, IPA. Collaboration with Collective Arts. It claims to be a take on a rosé. I get it. A little fruity, and super dry (how I like my rosé). I had this in November though, maybe they should release it in the summer. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Coquito
Milk Stout - 8.2% ABV Pete Collaboration with Mikkeller. Delicious sweet stout with good depth of flavor, finishing chocolatey. You get some of the spices to balance out the sweetness. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Harambe
Imperial Stout - 8.6% ABV Pete Awesome beer with a lot going on. Dark chocolate flavor stands out the most, but there's also some toffee in there, and maybe a little coffee flavor too. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Finback Heliopause
Sour Saison - 5.8% ABV Pete I was pretty hammered when I had this, but this is what I wrote: "That's damn good. Sour but not crazy. Fruity but not girly. Alcohol but not boozy. I'm not funny" Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback I Feel The Universe
Gose - 5% ABV Pete Pretty sour on the lips with a salty finish. That finish sounds bad but really it's just enough to get you past the initial sourness and make you ready for more. I don't really taste the passion fruit, but there is a hint of general fruitiness. Great sour. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback IPA
American IPA - 7.2% ABV Pete Incredible "old school" IPA. It's bitter, with a touch of malt, and a ton of hoppy flavor. I also detect a tiny bit of funk, but not much. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Koselig Øl
Imperial New England IPA - 8.2% ABV Pete Collaboration with LERVIG. It's exactly what you'd expect from an imperial NEIPA. Juicy, hazy, no bitterness. A little bit of creaminess. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Me
IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete Incredible IPA. Overripe tropical fruit flavors combined with some creaminess really makes it seem like you're having a super soft mango that happens to get you drunk. Plus, just look at it, looks glorious. In the poll, please rate the beer, don't actually rate me, I'd rather not know. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Oscillation 013
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Not a ton of flavor, finishes creamy. It's not bad, but not really worth the premium price it'll run you. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Polyphonic
Imperial IPA - 8.6% ABV Pete Absolutely incredible beer. Smells of mango, and the flavor backs that up. Texture is super creamy and leaves you with a creamy aftertaste/sensation on the tongue. Pretty expensive (I paid about $20 for a 4 pack of pints), but totally worth it, especially when you realize that 4 pack has as much alcohol as 11 Bud Lights (and infinitely more flavor). Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Red Shift
Sour - 5.4% ABV Pete This claimed to be cranberry and yuzu. I believe it, but I couldn't pinpoint those flavors, just generally a little fruity with some mild sourness to it. It had a little saltiness that balanced it quite nicely. Really really good sour. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Replenish
IPA - 6% ABV Pete Soft, somewhat mild hazy IPA with a zesty finish that lingers. really good. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Shadowless
Stout - 7.4% ABV Pete Extremely dark, pretty rich chocolate flavor with a subtle spicy undertone, presumably from the sesame and matcha (not that I could pinpoint those flavors while drinking it). Awesome. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Space Case
Berliner Weisse - 3% ABV Pete This is a pretty sour beer, but still drinkable. It's ok, and it would get a higher rating, but 3% is ridiculously low alcohol. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Finback Tropical Nightz
Black IPA - 5% ABV Pete This is a bit odd. It's a little creamy, but still somehow light in body. Really, there's just something off about it. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
