Beer Cartel Advent Calendar, day 9 (on day 13) - Kaiju! Beer - No Ragrets - Barrel Aged Imperial Stout

  • The first thing I noticed was how creamy it poured from the can - really thick
  • Complex aromas: Wood, raisins. rum, dark chocolate
  • Flavour: Smoky, dark chocolate, dark fruit, liquorice
  • Bitterness is comparatively subdued
  • Not exactly the right brew for this time of year, but in winter it would score 9/10

Advent calendar, day 15. Oh look, a hazy 😀 This time an East Coast Hazy PA by Blackhops. It has lovely fruity aromas and quite a nice citrusy and stone fruity finish. Just a little less bitterness would be good.

I wonder AK how many of those beers that you have tried in your posts over the last couple of weeks you would actually buy.

I note that you have marked some fairly high.

Fair question. Some, I will probably get when I see them in the wild but generally, I’m mainly interested in sampling beers. If something stands out, I may even seek the beer out.

@Shamus O'Sean has scored a few good ones also and have an interesting feel about them. 

I wish i had ordered one now was this the 25 cans for $160? Time got away and before I knew it December was already here.

Mine is the Plonks Beer Advent Calendar. SWMBO got it for by b'day. I think it is somewhere around $150 for 25 cans.

Really enjoyed the 3 Ravens Tropical Pale Ale. Kinda more XPAish and a bit lighter on the malt which is how I like them. Tropical taste and aroma.

The Banks Brewing Hazy was pretty good too. Strong tropical aroma and taste. Had the body of a hazy/neipa but easy enough to drink.

Sure Brewing Spin Off Citrus Gose. Fairly light bodied. Lke a beer mixed with soda water with added lime and grapefruit. First couple of mouthfuls were refreshing but didn't really want any more by the end of the can.
