Grimm Apricot Pop!
Berliner Weisse - 4.8% ABV Pete Incredible beer. Medium to high sour with a creamy mouthfeel, juicy backbone, and a little extra carbonation that makes you want to come back quickly for more. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Apricot Rebus
Sour - 5.5% ABV Pete This is an incredible sour. It is fruity going down (wouldn't be able to pinpoint apricot), then finishes with a nice tart bite. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Grimm BFF
Tripel IPA - 9% ABV Pete I love IPA's and I love tripel's, so I had extremely high hopes for this one. I like the Belgian spiciness to it, but it is just too bitter for me. It doesn't have a high IBU content, so it must have been something else, but that overwhelming bitterness (which I don't expect from a tripel) was a shame. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Butterfly Door
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Incredibly citrusy aroma dominated by orange and lemon. Super creamy texture goes along with those flavors and a hint of peppery-ness at the end. Unreal. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Cassiopeia
Imperial Porter - 10% ABV Pete Really roasty and rich, while also being chocolatey and sweet, yet somehow still fairly drinkable. Definitely don't notice the booze. Awesome beer. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Catch Wave
New England IPA - 7.5% ABV Pete My first reaction to this was that it smells and tastes like a Tree House. Pretty good considering the average rating of the 15 IPA's I've had from there (1/31/19) is 5.6. This is a little creamier and has a drier finish than your standard NEIPA, but it still has everything you want. Juicy and hazy, glorious. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Cherry Raspberry Pop!
Berliner Weisse - 4% ABV Pete Pretty sour and I love raspberry, so that combo is going to get me every time. The thickness of it also makes it seem like a milkshake. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Cloud Landing
Imperial New England IPA - 8% ABV Pete Super creamy. Some citrus flavor comes through, but I didn't get much dank. The creaminess dominates a little too much, but I still wouldn't kick this out of bed. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Color Field
Sour - 4.7% ABV Pete Pretty sour, but not too overwhelming, with a hint of sweetness to balance it out a bit. Delicious. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Cube: Cuvee #1
Sour - 6.5% ABV Pete This is a pretty sour beer that is also still somehow quite malty. It doesn't really work. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Dreamweapon
IPA - 6.4% ABV Pete Smells nice, albeit fairly mellow, with some citrusiness to it. It doesn't have a ton of flavor going down, but it finishes crisp and refreshing. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Gamelan Pop!
Fruited Sour - 6% ABV Pete This is an interesting one. The base flavor is good, and there's a creaminess to it. The kaffir lime flavor is outrageously strong though. Combined with the creaminess it left me feeling like I had just chewed on some kaffir lime leaves. Can't win 'em all. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Gravity of Smile
Imperial IPA - 9% ABV Pete Glorious beer. A little bit of a creamy mouthfeel, with a hint of pine flavor to go along with a citrus bomb. Hides the booze well. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Icing On The Cake
Imperial Stout - 10% ABV Pete Pretty rich going down with milk chocolate flavors. Finishes a bit more bitter, giving hints of dark chocolate. Quite delicious. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Jam Don't Shake
Imperial Milk Stout - 17% ABV Pete Collaboration with Other Half (haven't had any of those as of 4/22/19). This is a lot. It really does taste a bit like a PB&J. It's more jelly than peanut butter, but man, to make a 17% ABV beer taste like PB&J with only a small amount of booziness is really impressive (it smells much boozier than it tastes). Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Kites Are Fun
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Delicious, very citrusy IPA with a good amount of bitterness to it. The citrus/bitter combo makes it like you've got some fruit rind in it. My only complaint is that it was a little flat. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Lambo Door
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Super creamy beer with a big punch of citrus flavor. Creaminess is more notable than citrus, excellent beer. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Light Year
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete I was a bit inebriated when I had this bad boy, but it was quite good, just ask drunk Pete: "Smells incredibly citrusy but is also tasting that way. It’s a little bitter but yum". That's a 'really drunk but trying really hard to write full sentences' review right there. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Lumen
New England IPA - 6.4% ABV Pete A little bit of citrus comes through, but the ultra-creaminess of this beer dominates everything else. Still good, but kinda one note. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Mango Guava Pop!
Berliner Weisse - 4.8% ABV Pete Creamy and a touch fruity, not really sour at all (definitely less than the other Pop! variations I've had). Very drinkable. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Maximum Delight
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Outstanding beer. Smells and tastes super citrusy with a hint of piney-ness in the finish. Absolutely no bitterness. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Power Pop!
Berliner Weisse - 4.8% ABV Pete This is so different. It was described as a "dessert Berliner", so I didn't know what the hell to expect. After drinking it, I understand. It's sweet and creamy, with a hint of sour. Nothing like anything I've ever had before. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Shadow Work
Flanders Oud Bruin - 7% ABV Pete A little sour and a little malty. That description could have this beer go a variety of ways, but it worked quite well with this one. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Skyspace
Sour - 5% ABV Pete Amazing sour. Definitely taste raspberry, but it isn't too fruity. There's a hint of sour and just enough salt (if you think about it, you'll notice it) to balance it perfectly. Worth splurging on. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Splish
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Great creamy IPA. Good amount of hoppiness and a little bit bitter, but the creaminess from the oats really defines this one. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Sunshine Pop!
Berliner Weisse - 4.8% ABV Pete Pretty awesome, hard to describe beer. The best description I can give is that it's like drinking a lemon square. It's tart, but it had some body to it. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Super Spruce
Gose - 4.7% ABV Pete This is very lemony and easy to drink, but really isn't worth the premium price. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Super Symmetry
Gose - 4.8% ABV Pete This isn't bad. It's mildly sour, but definitely could use some more flavor. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Grimm Tesseract
Double IPA - 8% ABV Pete When I had this, I had no idea what I was about to drink, just took this one on blind faith from a bartender after another keg was kicked and this one took over. It was the best beer I've had at that bar, and I've had many. It has great IPA flavor, but doesn't taste nearly as strong as it is. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
