No Label Brewing Co

Elda M.

Milk Stout | 6.7% ABV | 25 IBU
Offered By: SANTA
Member Notes: 
"Dark brown in color, but somewhat thin in appearance. Nose of intense caramel, some burnt caramel, some hops. It's very light in body, with roasted malts mid-palate, a semi-bitter roasted finish, and just a little sweetness to glue it all together. Light, mellow, and a little unbalanced." - noss

Triton Brewing CO

Rail Splitter IPA

English-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) | 7% ABV | 70 IBU
Offered By: FATBOY
Member Notes: 
"Dark golden caramel in color with a slightly citrusy caramel nose. Nice barley aroma that's sweet but still a little grainy. Some bitter resin on the front of the palate, with a very bitter finish for the light body. Still, some chewy maltiness helps out a little to balance things. " - noss
