Harpoon Super Dark
Imperial Dunkelweizen - 10% ABV Pete Great beer. It tastes a little spicy, pretty clearly from the barrel aging. It tastes like a barrel aged imperial stout more than it does a dunkel. Pretty boozy as well. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Harpoon Sweet Spot
Golden Ale - 4.8% ABV Pete This just plain tastes like a cheap light beer. Ratings: Pete - 2 Shyoh's |

Harpoon The Long Thaw
White IPA - 6.2% ABV Pete This is a pretty nice IPA with some hints of orange and coriander, exactly what you'd expect from a white IPA. I definitely suggest drinking out of the glass, as the smell was my favorite part of this beer. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Harpoon 100 Barrel Series: Session 56: Thunder Foam
Porter - 6.8% ABV Pete This is amazing. It's dark, rich, foamy, and delicious. I was quite drunk when I had it, but Untappd post seems to indicate my friends didn't like it, and that I didn't want them to be my friends anymore because of it. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Harpoon Trippel
Tripel - 9% ABV Pete This is a very mild tripel. There is some flavor, and it's quite good (I love tripels) and it certainly manages to hide the 9% alcohol very well. You might not know where 'there' is yet, but this beer will get you there. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Harpoon Beer Trip 2014 Tuscan Pool Party
Oak Aged Ale - 7.6% ABV Pete This one is...weird. The combination of booziness, grape flavor, and being aged on oak barrels just didn't work for me. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Harpoon UFO Apricadabra
Fruit Beer - 4.8% ABV Pete Pretty fruity but not egregious. Extremely refreshing, easy to drink beer. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Harpoon UFO Big Squeeze Shandy
Shandy - 4.5% ABV Pete This is the closest you're going to get to a beer lover's shandy. Usually shandies are too sweet, since it's lemonade and beer, a great option for summer or people who like sweet drinks and are trying to get into beer. This one is different though. It's still "fruity", but the fruit is grapefruit, which is pretty bitter. That makes it feel a lot more like a beer, so I felt manly enough drinking it, and it's delicious. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Harpoon UFO Blueberry
Fruit Beer - 5.6% ABV Pete Not terribly sweet, but tons of blueberry flavor. Big winner in my book. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Harpoon UFO Chocolate Peppermint
Pale Wheat Ale - 6.5% ABV Pete I was not expecting this to be a pale beer. That said, it's pretty darn tasty. It has hints of - shocking - chocolate and mint. Nice. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Harpoon UFO CRANBeeRY
Fruit Beer - 4.8% ABV Pete Like a pretty standard shandy with a hint of bitter. Nice and refreshing. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Harpoon UFO Gingerland
Winter - 5.2% ABV Pete I had really high hopes for this beer, because it sounds delicious. Overall, it fell short of my hopes, but was still drinkable. I am hoping I just thought it was worse because of my high expectations, so maybe you'll like it more if you try it without expecting anything. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Harpoon UFO Hefeweizen
Hefeweizen - 5.1% ABV Pete This beer is good, but it's missing something, feels like it could use some fruit flavor. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
