Shenanigans Summer Ale is Indeed Brewing’s latest seasonal, and it looks to capture the lawnmower beer market.

Unlike many other poppy efforts, there is…
Fake Life starts with a deep and dark beat that calls comparisons to gangster music, 50 Cent, and Rick Ross singles. The energy brought the cut by Majestic’s vocals is reminiscent of artists like Tech N9ne and Brotha Lynch Hung. A bit of screwed and chopped lyrics provide further variety to the track, while the intensity of Majestic’s vocals keep the replay value of the song high.

After a few moments to open…
“Wish” by the Ultra Violent Rays is an effort that ties together oughts-alternative with bits of The Waitresses and Siouxsie and the Banshees. The electronic tinge that is present here creates a organic-electronic dichotomy, making for a track that will kick around listeners’ heads long after Wish ceases to play.

Chubna is one of the tastiest efforts that we have received so far in 2016. The brew links together a sharp alcoholic nose with hops and more sweet-forward elements into an incredibly complex and fulfilling effort.
