Our Brewing Co, Holland, MI

Sasquatch on Coffee, 10%, 30 ibu, double milk stout, nice coffee nose, nice coffee taste, smooth, would order anywhere,

Samba IPA< 7 % 75 ibu, nice nose, nice finish, citrusy, smooth in the mouth even witth the 75 ibu.

Coconut Porter, 6 %, 36 ibu, dark color, dry, taste the coconut, not overpowering.   coconut lasts for a while after you are done.  very good.

Foreign Market, English Pale ale, with fenugreek (tasted maple sysrup or celery salt), 6.8%, 20 ibu, Fran smells the maple syrup, I smell the maple syrup, i get the celery salt at the back of the tongue.  Very good beer, slightly different than others.  

Amarillo Grandpa D's Lager, 5%, 20 ibu, amarillo hops, wet hopped at the end of the brewing to get less of the bitter from the hops.   Just a lager, low alcohol, its a better version of a Bud or Miller.  

I Saw Red, cherry cream ale, 5.2%, 20 ibu, cherry nose, like a cherry lollipop to me, maybe a tart cherry lollipop (Ann),  Fran says cherry cider, Ron possibly sees it as cherry cough syrup, not that medicinal to me.
