Growler poured, shared by Jansen. Thanks! Pours a glowing reddish orange with a quick fade head. very soft aroma of hips. Mild flavor, to my surprise, with a bread malt, and cool finish. Lingering boozy palate, but comes late. Good triple.

Draft - Rich grapefruit and caramel. Clear copper with a nice beige head. Pithy citrus bitterness up front, light booze and sweetness. Booze and bitterness overwhelm.

This beer changed completely; it's not blond and cloudy-murky. The aroma is fruity and lightly dank; the mouthfeel is lean for the style, moderately sweet, very juicy, citrusy, tropical; maybe lacking some punch in the finish.
Excellent.

Amber color with compact head. The malt profile is candy-ish, maybe a bit too easy, and also sweet; it has little malt or caramel flavor, and it's boozy in the end, light fruity touch; resiny hops.
A bit messy.

Golden-bronze, aroma is fairly toasty; very toasty, and has a light fruity character, not much alcohol, just a dash, and then a hit of hop bitterness late.

On tap at Aslan, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is quite dry, with dry bready malt and dry resinous hops. Flavour hits you with a wallop - loads of resinous hops, with just enough caramel malt to back without contributing much sweetness. Very nicely rounded, a little boozy. Excellent.
