The brewery: Olde Mother Brewing Company, Frederick, Maryland
Description (from Untappd): "We asked AI to write a beer recipe and give us a description and here is what it spit out: Intense aroma of roasted malt with notes of coffee and chocolate. Hints of pine and citrus hop bitterness peek through. Bold and flavorful, with a strong malt backbone that balances the hop bitterness. Roasted malt flavors of coffee, dark chocolate, and molasses dominate, while pine, grapefruit, and tropical fruit hops add complexity."
Would I buy it again? Can a beer taste AI generated? If it can, then this beer does. More accurately, this beer tastes like a lot of things, but it never settles on one. There's coffee and chocolate, there's hoppiness, there's pine and citrus, they're all here and you can taste them all, but they don't mesh together in any meaningful way. It's not a terrible beer, but it's completely directionless. Artificial intelligence may be coming for a lot of things, but it hasn't quite mastered the art of brewing. I would pass on this in the future.
