Andrew Burchill is drinking a Sing•along Deathmatch by Jester King Brewery at Untappd at Home
Cidery, VERY funky, but not in the normal way. Maybe that's the smoke? Fruitiness is well balanced by the bitterness. Honestly pretty interesting and enjoyable. I might get again? Acetic for sure. When warmer, feels more beery.

Andrew Burchill is drinking a Pliny for President (2024) by Russian River Brewing Company at Untappd at Home
Better than Pliny the Younger, but still not my favorite. Brighter, but still bitter in that West Coast IPA way. Aftertaste seems to linger a long time. Ib still wouldn't reach for it normally though.

Honestly, wouldn't buy again. Maybe it's too old? (It shouldn't be) But it's just kinda smooth and strongly alcoholic with a lingering bitter aftertaste. I actually don't think I like it very much. The bitter aftertaste does NOT fade.

Andrew Burchill is drinking a Spellbinder With Kohia Nelson by Wren House Brewing Company at Untappd at Home
Smell is great, weirdly smooth and creamy, almost feels flat or like it's missing something. VERY strong juice taste. Like it's almost not a beer?

VERY SLIGHT rosemary herbal smell. Bitter aftertaste, like a traditional West Coast IPA. Lingers a bit too long for me, but isn't bad. Clean, crisp ish. Not bad, I'd drink this at a party for sure.
