Butternuts Beer & Ale

Butternuts has to my taste awesome marketing and a very nice website. Another plus is that the beers have an estimated nutritional value. 150 calories, 8 grams of carbohydrates, and 1 gram of protein. Very estimated because these 4 beers indicate the same information.

Moo Thunder 4.9%

One of the most watery stouts I have ever drank, this is no necessarily a bad thing. Like alot of stouts it is relatively light, the creaminess is almost absent. Very dark, sort of looks like coke or pepsi, it is also rare to find stouts in the 355ml can format around here. I taste hints of dark chocolate. Has some traits similar to Murphy's.

Snapperhead 6.8%

Snapperhead is an all malt bevrage, the label doesn't show a snapper and is kind of a knockoff of Landshark.Very perfumed smell, I detect a hint of pine. A kind of sappy taste is present. Not too cerealy but there is a hoppy bitterness. The colour is almost opaque, its actually kind of cloudy copper. In general I find it to be more neutral than other artisan beers.

Heinnieweisse 4.9%

The logo has something that looks like a hop head witch is very similar to an alien. Again all malt. Its a cloudy blonde, almost white, very European. It has a clean feel and the bitterness this time is well doused.

Porkslap 4.3%

This is their house brew, their trademark. Once again very perfumed and bitter, very minor hints of sweetness. I prefer it to Snapperhead but very similar except for the abv. Hard to detect the ginger. The cereal gets into your breath real fast. 

15.99$ for 12x355ml in New York, its one of the most expensive American beers but alot cheaper than the beer around here.
