Relic Ancient Art
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV
Pete
     Pretty tasty IPA, but it was a little flat when I had it at a beer festival. I'm not sure if it's always that way, but that's my experience.

Relic Black Dawn
Stout - 7.2% ABV
Pete
     Outstanding stout. It's got extremely toasty flavor from the dark malts, almost to the point of tasting smokey. It isn't too heavy, so it's pretty easy to drink too. Dangerous.

Relic Funeral Song
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV

     Solid double IPA that doesn't have a ton of flavor but hides the booze well and isn't too bitter.

     Very good IPA that's a little dank with a nice dry finish.

Relic Shadow Prophet
Imperial IPA - 8.2% ABV
Pete
     Creamy (makes sense with lactose) with tons of citrus, finishing with a little pine to round it out. Outstanding beer.

IPA - 6.2% ABV

     This is a little bitter in the finish, but mostly malty going down. I don't love it.

Brown Ale - 6% ABV
Pete
     Pretty generic brown. It has a little bit of nuttiness, a little sweet, nice.

Relic The Whim
New England IPA - 6.5% ABV
Pete
     Orangey and a little bit zesty. Super light body along with that flavor makes it extremely easy to drink. Damn good beer.
