On tap at the brewpub.
Black pour, medium off white head. Aroma of light pine, with solid roasted malts. Solid mouthfeel and carb. Light roast in the finish with a very u derwhelming hop presence. I was expecting more.

42nd Floor Bottleshare. Thanks to Wingman. Almost clear brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry and has reasonable carbonation. Soft dark malts, some creamy sweetness and contrasting roast bitterness. Tangy artificial chocolate. Some chocolate - orange. Sweet floral finish with bubblegum esters. Bitter linger. Messy but not awful.

Draft - Light toasted malts and very light earthy hops. Dark maroon with a bubbly white head. Roasted malts and an almost astringent hop bitterness that imparts no good flavours. Finish brings out the hops but it’s a bit late. Not a fan.
