Port Hop-15
Imperial IPA - 11% ABV
Pete
     Impressive hiding of alcohol. It's a little bitter (but not as crazy as 182 IBU suggests), but really not a ton of flavor. Impressive that I didn't taste the booze.

Port Shark Attack Double Red Ale
Imperial Red - 9% ABV
Pete
     This is extremely hoppy and bitter with a hint of malt in the finish. It is just too bitter for me.

Saison - 8% ABV

     Nice spicy yet easy to drink saison that hides the unusually high alcohol content well.

Wild Brown Ale - 11% ABV
Pete
     A little malty sourness going down is nice, but the weird sour aftertaste is more like over-steeped coffee than something pleasant.

Bière de Garde - 12% ABV

     This beer is really strong and it tastes like it. It didn't have a ton of flavor to go along with the booze.

Belgian Quad - 10.5% ABV

     Great beer. My drunk notes on tasting this were "dark and mysterious". I guess that means it's complex and I don't quite have the palate to distinguish all the depth of flavors in here. The first thing you'll taste is maltiness, but there's quite a bit going on. Definitely taste a little of the booze though.
