4 oz pour on draft at Spacebar. Hazy amber with beige head. Aromas of malt, caramel, nutty notes. Tastes of big malt, caramel, nutty and toasty notes. Medium body with a dry finish. Solid imperial red.

32oz growler from the brewery pours a murky, brick red (nearly brown) with some spitty, off white head. Nose is extremely gristy, soggy cracker, bread crust, malt, some orange, some mild fruit notes, both stone fruit and hints of tropical fruits. Flavor follows, I was surprised at how gristy this was, lots of biscuit and dried notes, more of that soggy cracker, some orange, blood orange too, mild soap. Full bodied, dry finish. A little incongruous for me.

Draft at the source. Hazy amber brown color, beige edge head. Bright pine resin aroma. Taste is pine, crisp caramel, very bitter. Interesting.

5oz draft pour at the source. Poured a nice clear amber color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was notes of citrus, tropical fruits, light caramel notes. Flavor had a nice amount of pine, citrus, juicy tropical fruit. Alcohol pretty well masked.
