This beer was very good! It was labeled an Triple Hoppy Imperial Ale and, as you might expect it was very hoppy indeed, just the way I like them. It really tasted like an IPA rather than an Imperial Ale, probably because of all the extra hops that must have been added.
The beer poured a nice golden brown and had a slight head. The aroma was a mild citrus. The hoppy after taste lingered strongly on the tongue, but was never too bitter.
This is a very enjoyable beer. I highly recommend it. I give it 4.5 out of 5 hops!

Mein Nelson Sauvin
The Mein Nelson Sauvin was bottled in a very fancy and unique looking bottle as you can see from the picture. I was expecting a wheat beer, or something similar but was surprised to find it a very good Belgian type of beer, but with very unique flower and honey flavors.
This was a very drinkable Belgian type Ale, although I don't think they call it a Belgian. I am not a big fan of sweet beers, and even though this wasn't very sweet it was still too sweet for my tastes. I would recommend you give it a try because it was very unique and interesting, and quite drinkable.
I give it 3 out of 5 hops!

Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout
I typically don't like Stout's, but when I saw this in my 50 beers I just had to try it. It was the Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout. I was intrigued to find out if it really tasted like a cappuccino, and it really did have some distinct flavor of coffee!
It was a very heavy beer, so there was no way I was about to drink all 22oz, especially at 12% alcohol.
Even though it wasn't an IPA, I really enjoyed it. The flavors were rich and smooth and it had that typical syrup like texture of a good stout. Overall I would rate this at 3.5 out of 5 hops and recommend it to anyone that likes a good stout!
