Waff-ale literally smells and taste like a waffle. While the beer isn’t the best we’ve ever had, it’s certainly fun. The roasted red ale is a solid dark beer with toasted malt that’s very apparent, almost tasting burnt. Florida Beer Company’s triple chocolate milk stout is an exceedingly heavy beer that would make any Guinness fan blush, we loved the complex chocolate notes and weight of each sip.

And now it’s time for trash flight, yay! The lemongrass saison may do its job well as a saison, but that doesn’t mean it’s good. This one is made with local lemongrass from near the First Magnitude Brewery. Honeydew Melon has straight-forward notes of the fruits with a back-tongue of hops, and the Monkey Fist IPA is a very hoppy drink. It’s not our cup of tea, but it’s worth trying three unique and local beers for just a few bucks.
