On tap at Opal restaurant in Santa Barbara CA. Terrible pour from the waiter (sorry) but it came with a slight, almost absent whispy white head and a translucent, nut brown body. Aroma was alright, caramel malts, slightly bread and crackers also a bit fruity. Flavor was all caramel malts, crackers, bread, slightly nutty. Finish was dry. The commercial description of this is ridiculous when you finally have a chance to drink it, but it was generally OK.

Bottle. This is the second beer I’ve had from Island and the second one with an obvious infection problem that left it undrinklable. There is something definately wrong with their sanitation. Ruby-mahongony color with a HUGE beige head. Slightly sour aroma over malt and fruit. Sour flavor. Undrinkable. Drainpour. I won’t be buying any more of their beers after this.
