Idle Hands "34"
Imperial Porter - 6.7% ABV Pete Idle Hands' tribute to Big Papi. Definitely a robust porter in flavor, but it's still pretty drinkable. Delicious. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Annika
Baltic Porter - 7.8% ABV Pete Tons of complex roasty flavors. Dark, yet easy to drink. Strong, yet crushable. Quite good. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Backwards K
New England IPA - 7.3% ABV Pete Clearly a hazy NEIPA. Caught myself looking at this one (get it?). Some tropical flavors, but it also has some dank/earthy flavors in the background, and finishes pretty dry. Quite good. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Check Raise
American Stout - 6.4% ABV Pete Smells incredible. The flavor is quite roasty, but it goes away pretty quickly, which was a little disappointing, but made it easier to drink quickly, so there's that. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Child Of The Sun
Grisette - 5.5% ABV Pete Incredible sour. A little sweet and a little funk are just there a little bit on the side of a pretty aggressive sour punch. Great beer. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Croupier
Saison - 5.9% ABV Pete Definitely get some background of the saison spiciness, but this is a super funky beer in the forefront. I usually don't love that, but I had this at a cheese fest, and it worked well with it. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Edgeworth
Pilsner - 4.8% ABV Pete Solid pils. Not a ton of flavor, but super crisp. Exactly what you want in the style. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Four Horsemen
Belgian Quad - 13% ABV Pete My drunk notes on this were "if you like tasting alcohol, you'll like this". I guess it tastes as strong as it looks. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Four Seam
IPA - 6.6% ABV Pete Oustanding piney IPA that isn't very bitter. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Blood Orange
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete Mild sour beer with a tiny hint of orange flavor. It's pretty good, very drinkable. Weird name. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Concoction
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete Pretty intense lime flavor and quite sour (more from the lime than the beer itself). It's a little intense, but if you love lime, you'll love this. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Rosé
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete Pretty mild sour. Slightly more fruit than sour, but really this is just an easy drinker. Good day time beer, or nice to break up a string of IPA's/stouts. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Salted Rim
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete This goes down dangerously fast. The lime is forward but not overpowering, and the hint of ginger makes it even easier to drink. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Tiki
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete Pretty light body, a little sourness, and mildly fruity. I didn't notice any almonds, but it's a pretty good beer. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Kill Your Idles: Undead Red
Sour - 5.6% ABV Pete Solid sour. More tart cherry flavor than actual sourness. Needs a bit more carbonation, but it grew on me as I drank it. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Klara
Dortmund Lager - 5.5% ABV Pete Really outstanding drinkable lager with a little extra hop flavor. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Redstone Red Handed
Imperial IPA - 8.2% ABV Pete Apparently this was brewed to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of a liquor store. That's a good store. It's delicious. Creamy and citrusy with a touch of zestiness to it. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Sig Sour
Sour - 4% ABV Pete This is more sour than salty, but you definitely notice the hint of salt if you're looking for it. It's a pretty good, pretty mild sour. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Idle Hands Splitter
Imperial New England IPA - 8.4% ABV Pete Very good citrusy flavor that sticks with you for quite awhile. A little creaminess as well. Really good, but the flavor is fairly mellow for a beer of this ABV. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
