From Bottles to Growlers- beer reviews by SANDY FELD, certified taster
Cooperstown Nine Man Ale

A mild maltiness dominates throughout with subtle perfumy
notes highlighted by peach undertones.  Hops are hard to find
until the finish when a light bitterness appears.  Balanced and
somewhat refreshing but undistinguished.   
Overall Rating - Acceptable
JW Dundee's Pale Ale

Clear, light pale with a light hop presence, traces of vanilla
and caramel malt, in a background of citrus fruitiness. There is
a touch of doughy sweetness in a somewhat harsh finish that
belies it's soft beginning and pleasant nose.  Standard fare.
Overall Rating - Acceptable+
Having sampled well over 2,500 different beers in my
capacity as a fully certified taster I can promise
honest, thoughtful, and careful evaluations.  However,
remember that these reviews are totally subjective.  
Consider this column an informative resource only.  
The bottom line is to trust your own judgment and
keep drinking!

Shipyard Summer Ale

Crisp with loads of effervescence, tis
brew is characterized by wheat notes
throughout the tasting profile.  Its
malty sweetness is barely balanced
by a light hop presence. Solid of this
type but better summer ales are
easily available.  
Overall rating -Acceptable.
