 "It's a no nonsense Irish Ale that tastes of the earth." - Matt

 "It tastes like smoked ham with honey." - Aaron"I like ham, guys. —two hams up, right there" - Deon

 "It's a pretty solid American Amber Ale." - Aaron"It's tart. I would almost say that it has a tart cherry flavor to it." - Matt"Woody cherry. Woody Guthrie." - Aaron

 "It is surprisingly fruity." - Aaron"But it's got a mild molasses undertone to it." - Matt

 "It's sweet. It's like giving a middle finger in space?" - Aaron"Hops, citrus, perhaps even grapefruit, which is citrus." - Matt

 "It tastes like peat. It's very smokey. A little bit hammy. It's the kind of scotch ale I'm not super excited about." - Aaron"This is too smokey." - Matt

 "It's balanced. Good job, White Lion." - Aaron

 "Nutty, chocolatey cocoa. This has got everything. The best brown ales are perfectly balanced." - Matt

 "This is a nice medium amber. This beer invites you to do yard work." - Matt"The best ambers are full bodied and at the same time have a lightness to them and I think this fits the bill." - Matt"This is good. I can drink a lot of these all night long." - Aaron

 "That's really good! Holy shit, it's light." - Aaron"It's refreshing." - Matt; "Yes, it's refreshing. Very effervescent." - Aaron"It's in your face" - Matt; "like a Tokyo Sauna." - Aaron"It has a bold flavor." - Matt

 "Oh, my. It's a lot sweeter than I suspected. Almost like a cherry? What am I tasting?" - Aaron"It's a little metallic and then sweet like fruity." - Mike "And there's some hops——back end." - Gary"It inserts itself right away and then like disappears. I think it's because I have a cold." - Matt

 "Really smells like peanut butter. Unpleasant." - Matt"It really smells like cap'n crunch peanut butter crunch. It tastes like——a cardboard box of a cap'n crunch peanut butter" - Mike"Eh." - Aaron"I don't mind it. I kinda like it. The chocolate is coming through. It's a peanut butter cup in my mouth." - Gary"I'm not a close minded person but I'm willing to step out on a limb and say that peanut butter shouldn't be a flavor in beer." - Matt

 "This is a solid amber. Really good. Perfectly balanced." - Aaron"Oh, delicious. This is so good. This has a metallic taste that is actually pleasant." - Matt

 Aaron, "This is a solid amber. Really good. Perfectly balanced."Matt, "That's red and that's pale."Linda, "It smells hoppier than it tastes."

 Deb, "I do taste that little bit of orange."Matt, "That's a big old citrus bomb." Aaron agrees, "Oh yeah."Matt continues, "Oranges, lemon it's like an XTC Album." Aaron adds, "Tastes just like 1989."

 Deb, "That doesn't taste like anything."Matt, "That tastes like very little. It's really astounding. It's got almost no flavor whatsoever."Aaron followed by Matt (in parentheses), "There is an aftertaste, a little bit of cream (and a tiny bit of peach)."

 Matt, "It's a bit too herbal."
David, "I think it tastes like olive that you just picked off the tree. It's not ready to eat at all."
Stacey, "It tastes like a hefeweizen. It has the bananay." (Matt and David agree.)

 Matt, "This is a very unassuming beer."
Aaron, "Oh there's a little watermelon there."
Matt, "I can see why they call it leisure ale. 'Cause this is uncomplicated and you dont have to think about it and you don't have to react to it."

 Matt, "That's real good it's little on the tart side for me but the nuance of it and you can really taste those flavors."Aaron, "You can really taste the mangoes."

 Matt grimaces.Aaron, "I like it. It's chocolatey. This is my favorite kind of beer."

 Aaron, "Oooh, that's nice."
Matt, "Oranges. Like the pulp of the oranges."
Aaron, "And a little bit of rind on the back end actually."

 Matt, "It smells like bullshit."
Aaron, "It tastes like peanut butter. It tastes a lot like peanut butter."
Matt, "It tastes like popcorn. (You're right) It tastes more like popcorn than peanut butter."

 Matt followed by Aaron, "Nice. Honey is not overpowering. Neither is the lav."
Aaron explains that the "lav" refers to lavender.
Matt, "The lavender could easily been overpowering but that's not either. This is well balanced."

 Matt, "It's so tangy. I don't like that at all."
John Kovalic, "It's almost sour."

 Matt, "It smells like a green pepper."
John Kovalic, "It's almost dusty." Matt, "Dusty, yeah." John Kovalic, "Dusty mouthfeel to it." Aaron, "Dusty pepper."
Matt, "It certainly evokes a certain region of the southwest, but doesn't really evoke tasty beer."Brett Meyer, "It's like drinking nachos."

 Matt, "You know what it's not over the top on? Banana taste. Which I appreciate."
Matt, "I kind of like this. It's kind of refreshing. But I wouldn't have more than one."

 Matt, "...I hate the smell of it."
Jason, "Oh my God, it's like motor oil."
Matt, "It's okay but why would anyone want to drink more than a sip of this."
Aaron, "It's so strong."
Matt, "It's so heavy. It's not pleasurable, it's just a challenge."

 Matt, "That is a dry lager and it is very pleasant. It is very effervescent. The subtly is what's really winning here."
Aaron, "And in this day and age, subtly never wins. So congratulations."

 Matt, "It is a very unassuming IPA, a very unremarkable IPA, and I think those two things equal an enjoyable beer for me."
Aaron, "I find it bitter and spiteful."
Matt, "Any IPA is going to be bitter, but this is not overly bitter."

 Matt, "Wow!" Aaron, "It actually works. I knew Shiner could pull it off." Matt, "I'm happy to have stand corrected." Aaron, "That's how that is supposed to taste."
Matt, "There's just a hint of salt. It's like a whisper of salt."
Aaron, "A broad lime flavor and a light lager flavor."
Whitney, "It smell a little bit like window cleaner but not ammonia-based window cleaner and tastes much better than window cleaner."
Trevin, "...beer in your empty margarita glass." Matt, "Oh yeah. ...almost states like a shandy."

 Matt, "It's a very unassuming blonde ale. There's a some floral bitterness there."Matt, "Ooh, floral flowery (Whitney, "like a daisy"). It's got a good flavor. I just don't want what it does to you after."

 Matt, "I don't care for it." Mike agreeing with Matt, "Yup." Matt, "It's too bitter not enough sweet. Nut brown's gotta have a sweet bitter balance." Karen to Matt, "I agree." Aaron to Matt, "Are you crazy? It tastes really sweet."

 Aaron, "It smells like the inside of like a dresser drawer." Matt, "Cedar, yeah." Karen, "I think forest." Matt, "I can't get that smell of cedar out of my head."

 Matt, "Do not taste pecans at all."Aaron, "No, it's very caramely."Matt, "This just tastes like a light brown ale."

 Stacey, "I love this beer. Give it to me."Matt, "I've got a huge whiff for tangerine off this thing. That is an intense tangerine flavor."Aaron, "That's good."Matt, "It tastes like it has an actual fruit juice in it. Like it's a Shandy."

 Matt, "It tastes okay. I don't like how it finishes. It finishes tartly. (Brandon: "Me too.") Tartly on the tongue. (Brandon: "Me too")."Elayne, "I actually really like this. And I normally don't really like dark beers."Aaron, "It tastes better after one sip."

 Matt, "That is a nice crisp IPA. That is very delightful. I think they call it juicy because it's not as dry as a IPA typically is."

 Matt, "I don't think I like that very much. I don't think I like red beers in general. They're too metallic for me."Rob, "It tastes like sunflower seeds." Aaron and Matt agree.

 Packaged in a root beer bottle.Matt, "That's not bad. There's lots of layers of favor in there. I got like three different layers. I haven't figured out what they are yet.Aaron, "I got a bunch of malt."Matt, "There's malt and then there's like a triangle of something. I feel like it's a triangle. (Aaron: "You can't feel a triangle from beer.") I'm tasting a triangle of flavor that comes through the malt."Aaron, "Oh, it's a little smoky too."Matt, "It's very dry and crisp and it makes me feel smart oddly enough."

 Matt, "Nice citrus-y IPA. Very clean and smooth."

 Matt, "It's lemon-y; it's herbal."Aaron, "I like it." Matt, "Pretty nice." Paul, "It builds."Aaron, "It's strong. Go pagans."

 Matt (grimacing), "It's nasty" Aaron, "I disagree."Matt, "Tangy banana bullshit." Aaron, "I don't taste any bananas."
