Tap. Pours clear deep amber to hazel, medium creamy beige head, good lacing. Aroma is nutty, bready, but of cardboard, grass. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, acidic cardboard. Medium body. Unfortunate.

Amber color with foamy white head. Aroma of toasted grain and caramel/malt light yeast. Flavor is really nice of a simple bitter. Toasted grain, English malts with a light herbal finish. Very easy to drink and perfect for the warm season.

On tap @ the brewery during San Francisco 7/7/14 beer tour. Pours a copper orange appearance with a light brown head. Some dms, cooked veggie in the aroma with a bit of toast but the aroma is pretty bland beyond the veggies. Pretty high sweetness. High carbonation. Some caramel and toffee notes. This one needs some work.

On tap at Magnolia, pours a clear copper with a small beige head. Aroma is almost non-existent, not really anything on the nose. Flavour is pretty much the same, with light toasted English malt - not a whole lot. Not much very inspiring about this.

Draught. Arbitrary score 4/5 for Appearance, as nighttime conditions prevented correct assessment. Woody, faintly fruity nose, subdued. Bitter, hoppy, but not citrussy. Again very light-fruity notes; if it’s fruit, it’s unrecognisable. Medium bodied at best, feels highly carbonated. Pleasing, if totally unspectacular beer.
