Jester King's sour Boxer's Revenge is super tart and lemony. Green apples and something like black olives in the back. It's a strange descriptor, sure, but it's the only thing that accurately describes the strange taste on the back end. Jester King's farmhouse beers are always interesting. Very similar to New Belgium's La Folie.
Live Oak Schwarzbier is roasty, bready, and buttery with a slight hoppiness. Light bodied and easy to drink
Independence Brewluminati Easy Riser has a full, creamy mouthfeel. It's packed with roasted grain, coffee grounds, and bitter dark chocolate, and a little leather on the back end. Medium hop bitterness. Wow! what a great stout.
Austin Beerworks Golden Fist smells sweet and yeasty. Bready and lemony in the malt, the yeast takes the reigns with a spicy finish that lasts on the tongue for a while.
Hops and Grains Oak Aged Pale Dog smells slightly floral and hoppy. The taste is citruisy and assertively hoppy, but the wood is also apparent in the taste, making it slightly sour
Last but not least, Draughthouse's Gratzer Wit is a smoky, hoppy witbier. I've never had such a smoky witbier before. Very well done.
Thanks to Jason, John, and Nicholas for your input and to the Draughthouse Pub on 42 and Medical for Texas Pint Night.
