"Not too sour and taste like a dream sickle " - fatboy

86	Fair State Brewing Cooperative Vienna Lager Vienna-Style Lager \| 5.3% ABV \| 25 IBU Offered By: ASIAFEVER

Club/Brewer Notes:
A medium-bodied amber lager that is toasty with a crisp bitterness and herbal hop nose.

89	New Holland Dragon's Milk White White Stout \| 6% ABV \| 35 IBU Offered By: FATBOY

Club/Brewer Notes:
Dragon’s Milk White is a nod to New Holland Brewing’s 20 years of barrel-aging expertise and commitment to innovation in the name of flavor. The next legend to unfold in the Dragon’s Milk family, Dragon’s Milk White creates a full flavored, yet lighter stout drinking experience that presents familiar flavors in a completely unexpected way.

88	New Belgium Brewing Company V2K IPA American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 6.9% ABV \| 19 IBU Offered By: SANTA

Club/Brewer Notes:
Say goodbye to your semi-charmed life and wassup to a bittersweet symphony of grapefruit and guava in sync in this Hazy IPA.

89	Rogue Ales Colossal Claude Imperial or Double India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 8.2% ABV \| 75 IBU Offered By: SANTA

Club/Brewer Notes:
It's been a few decades since a Colossal Claude sighting has been reported, but we're fairly certain the massive sea monster has been laying low off the coast of his favorite brewery. Word has it that after years of terrifying sailors and feasting on salmon he acquired a taste for hops. So we brewed this Imperial IPA with a colossal dose of Cascade, Chinook, Citro and Strata hops in hope of coaxing Claude out to join us for a pint.

91	Parish Brewing Company Attacus Atlas Imperial or Double India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 9% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: NOSS

Club/Brewer Notes:
Obscene amounts of Australian Galaxy hops used to counter the amount of malt used to get to this high of an ABV while still keeping the bitterness down – this beer is all about aroma. With super-saturated highlights of mixed berry, mint, melon, tangerine, and pine sap, Attacus is an opulent yet approachable experience.

91	Saint Arnold Brewing Company Double Down Imperial or Double India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 9.2% ABV \| 71 IBU Offered By: FATBOY

Club/Brewer Notes:
l In On Hops! Our newest year round release, Double Down, is our latest take on a double IPA. It is neither of the West Coast or East Coast, but features elements of both approaches to IPA. For this beer, our focus was to create big tropical and melon notes while integrating bitterness rather than it being a focal point. To accomplish this, we used late kettle hop additions and Incognito, an all-natural hop product that delivers highly concentrated flavor and aroma. The hop bill includes Pahto, Citra, Citra Incognito, Mosaic, Mosaic Incognito, and Galaxy. The result is aces.

93	Ranger Creek Brewing & Distilling Small Batch #3 British-Style Barley Wine Ale \| 10% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: NOSS

94	Hop Guru Straight Outta Da Barrel American-Style Wheat Wine Ale \| 10.5% ABV \| 40 IBU Offered By: PHATMEAT

94	Lakewood Brewing Co BBT - Bourbon Barrel Tempress Imperial Milk Stout \| 11.8% ABV \| 56 IBU Offered By: PHATMEAT

Club/Brewer Notes:
We take our signature silky imperial milk stout and age it in oak bourbon barrels between 5-10 months. Hints of burnt sugar, vanilla, oak, toffee, caramel, and roasted coffee intertwine for a smooth treat.

92	Three Floyds Brewing Company Dark Lord British-Style Imperial Stout \| 15% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: PHATMEAT

95	Dogfish Head Brewery 120 Imperial or Double India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 21% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: PHATMEAT
