On tap at Firestone Walker, pours a clear copper amber with a small beige head. Nose is full of bready malt, dry toffee, and light caramel. Flavour follows accordingly, with dry toasted caramel, bready malt, and light toffee. There's a hint of oak that rounds this off. Subtle but more interesting than the regular DBA. Excellent.

Draft at the Firestone Walker Taproom in Marina del Rey, CA. Pours mostly clear gold with a foamy, white head. Nice bready character, lightly bitter with some leaves, toasted grains and caramel. Medium bodied with fine carbonation and creamy texture. Smooth on the finish with further bready malts and toffee accents. Very enjoyable. Well rounded.

Grunt fill from Alberstons. Pours out a hazy amber with small fluffy head. Malt dominates the aroma, and kicks it up a notch in taste. Toffee, caramel, very mild bitterness. Unfiltered characteristics a nice addition.

Sample at GABF 09/26/2015, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Hazy brownish-amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes gradually. Partial sheets of lacing. Aroma of herbal hops, wood and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hops, earthy malt, fruit and oak. The finish is malty up front with a mildly hoppy aftertaste. Above average overall.
