Russian River Beatification
Wild Ale - 6% ABV Pete Pictured on the left. Super wild and funky, very good. Disclaimer: I was VERY inebriated when I had this. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Blind Pig IPA
IPA - 6.1% ABV Pete Very good IPA, and it's cheaper than most. You don't get a lot of IPA's that come in on the cheap side. Definitely worth drinking, though I'd probably just splurge on Pliny if it's there. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Citra Flash Mob
Pale Ale - 5.7% ABV Pete Very easy to drink with a little dankness. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Consecration Batch 090622
Wild Ale - 10% ABV Pete Perfection. It's somehow extreme on the funky, sweet, fruity, and tart scales all at the same time, while also being a little bit salty. Just a flavor bomb that's perfectly balanced. Ratings: Pete - 7 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River DDH Pliny the Elder
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Super dry, kind of bitter. Darn good beer. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Happy Hops
IPA - 6.5% ABV Pete Really nice, super crisp IPA. Mellow, but super drinkable. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Intinction: Merlot
Wild Ale - 7% ABV Pete A little tart with nice red wine flavor. Somehow those 2 go together really, really well. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Intinction: Sauvignon Blanc
Wild Ale - 8.25% ABV Pete Pictured on the right. Unreal. Super sour and a little grape-y, not to mention extra strong for a sour. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Jannemie
Saison - 6.2% ABV Pete Awesome beer. A little spicy, a little funky. Super bubbly. Great drinking experience. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Mind Circus
New England IPA - 7% ABV Pete Pictured 2nd from the left. Really good hazy IPA that leans to the dank side. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Pliny the Elder
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete Unreal beer. This beer is extremely popular among hop-heads (you might say it has a cult following), so I had to get it when I saw it. It didn't disappoint. I was surprised at how clear it looks, could almost pass for a macro lager, at least until you taste or smell it. It's everything you want in an IPA. A little bitter, a little citrusy, a little piney, pretty strong, yet somehow easy to drink. It's dangerous. Also look at that beautiful mug right behind it, how can you say no? Ratings: Pete - 7 Shyoh's |

Russian River Pliny the Younger
Imperial IPA - 10.25% ABV Pete This is the most hyped beer I've ever had. Waited in line for a ticket, had to come back a few days later. Of course, I then saw it on a menu entirely un-hyped the next week. Neither lived up. Good crisp, bitter IPA that's a little bit sweet. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Propitiation
Sour Porter - 7% ABV Pete This is pretty darn weird. I like weird, but this might even be too much for me. It's funky going down with some malty weirdness in the finish. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River RnD Series: IPA #18
IPA - 6.5% ABV Pete Pictured on the right. Very light body and a very grassy flavor. Really good. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Row 2, Hill 56
Pale Ale - 5.4% ABV Pete This is an underwhelming beer. Nothing wrong with it, just not a ton of flavor. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Saison
Saison - 6.1% ABV Pete This is just a perfectly executed saison. Crisp and drinkable, yet spicy and a little funky. Awesome. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Salvation
Belgian Strong Dark Ale - 9.9% ABV Pete Pretty darn boozy, and a lot more malty than I'd like without much else to balance it. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Shadow Of A Doubt
Imperial Porter - 9.86% ABV Pete Incredible. Slightly boozy porter, super roasty with a hint of sweetness in the finish. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River STS Pils
Kellerbier - 5.3% ABV Pete Very good pils, but it's a pils. Not a ton of flavor, but super crisp and easy to drink. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Supplication Batch 012518
Wild Ale - 7.75% ABV Pete Pictured on the right. Not my favorite. Pretty funky, and the cherry combined with that just didn't work for me. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Russian River Temptation
Wild Ale - 7.5% ABV Pete Pictured 2nd from the right. Very heavy on the Brett yeast flavor. That spicy funk is about as good as it gets in this one. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
