Blue Paw by, Sea Dog starting to put out the blueberry smell even before the cap was pried all the way off. It is a bright golden color as it is poured with a finger of white head which has bubbles feeding the head the entire time.
The taste starts of with the blueberries that were smelled so heavily, then fades into the wheat taste, and then finishes off with the blueberries again in the aftertaste. With mixing the wheat in there the beer has some what of a blueberry muffin taste.
There is to much carbonation and the blueberry taste was kinda artificial, but I must say I really enjoyed the mixture of the wheat and blueberries.

Café Negro Coffee Infused Porter by, BridgePort
With so many porters and stouts being laced with chocolate and beer, but most of which all coming up with just about the same concoction, Café Negro is a nice change of pace, since it REALLY gets that coffee taste.
It pours a very dark brown, almost black. There is very little of the brown head on top. Smells like a cafe mocha from Starbucks, with creamy chocolate and java juices.
Tastes kind of like coffee you would get late into the evening at a casino. I let my girlfriend, who is a barista (I mean BEARista) try it which described it as burnt black cup of Folgers. It has a nice thin fell which ends with that mocha aftertaste.
I plan on drinking this again soon. Maybe spiked with Bailey's.

Levitation Ale, by Stone
The ale pours a color of a copper penny with a finger and a half of head with a good amount of carbonation feeding into it. There is a good amount of lacing that comes along with this beer. actually there is lacing at the top from the foam head even as I finished of the glass.
The smell has a lot of earthy scents to it with lemongrass and pine being the primary ones. Levitation tastes very hoppy and matches the smell with its pine and grass flavors. The beer also has a bit of a spicy kick to it.
Overall this beer really keeps you guessing. For what simple ingredients they brag about on the bottle ("nothing but barley, hops, water, and yeast") this is very complex.

Sol. by, Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma Brewery
What can I say about this beer, it's not very good at all. No flavor, pours and tastes like water.... but I'm lying here in bed, unable to sleep, and this is the only post with a picture already edited for it.
It pours a golden color with no head from the painted 12 oz. bottle. The aroma is very light to no existent. Smells a little hoppy if anything.
Taste has a hint of citrus, with the inert lager taste that one can expect from these "popular" brands. The beer makes a great companion on the "how many beers can I drink in the night" game, but perhaps the beer should be put down those nights for something stronger.

Double Chocolate Stout, by Young's Brewery
Perhaps the most popular chocolate stout out there. Young's pour black with caramel highlights when held toward the light.
There is a nice thick foamy head that is tan in color, and slow to reside.
There is a nice java taste followed by what else??? Chocolate of course.
A little to much carbonation to the beer leaving me feeling fuller than I actually am, but as the glass empties a nice lacing is left (as seen below)
