On tap at the Alibi Room for the 500th beer list, pours black with a small creamy tan head. Aroma is pretty briny, with seaweed-like notes, some roast, and light cocoa. Flavour is quite salty, with notes of seaweed, salt, chocolate, a touch of licorice, and roasted malt. Not as briny on the flavour as on the nose, but it is certainly saltier. Surprisingly well-balanced and well-brewed. Great experiment.

650 ml bottle. Pour a very dark bark brown brown with full off-white head. Aromas of dark brown sugar, salt water taffy, and the gum from an unsealed envelope (this is new one...). Salty flavors of chocolate and roasted malts. Kelp - really? Great experiment for the beer drinking kayaker, but odd... Maybe a good barrel aging base?
