On tap at Old Abbey Ales, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings it lots of esters, with some improperly fermented yeast, candied sugar, and obscured hops somewhere underneath. Flavour is rather unpleasant, with perfumey notes, alcohol, and metallic notes. Holy shit is this terrible. Undrinkable.

Smells of some vegetably hops, earthy grain notes, possibly some asparagus in there. Has good white foam, a nice cloudy lighter gold body. Flavour is heavy and strong vegetable hops with candy notes and vague light grain. Mouthfeel is full enough, some dry grain on the back end with crispness in there, but also a very boozy aftertaste that does no one any good. It's juicy though a little too heavy for what it is.
