On tap at the brewery. Clear dark copper or brown body, thin off-white head. Toasty aroma that developed diacetyl notes as it warmed. At its initial serving temperature, the body was dominated by a rough graininess with heavy toast and an earthy, bitter finish with hints of fruitskin/berries. As it warmed, however, diacetyl exerted itself and dominated the flavor profile. Very thin-bodied. A weird beer, and probably not one I’d drink again, with or without the diacetyl.
