On tap @ Equinox. Pours a reddish brown appearance with a tan head. The aroma has some roast, burnt sugar, earth, caramel, and maybe a hint of nuts. Medium body. A bit acidic. Moderate to moderate high bitterness. Moderate low sweetness. Chocolate, ash, light smoke, caramel, bitter grassy hoppy flavor. The bitterness on the finish is a little harsh. A little bit of citrus but the hops come off more as grassy Avs herbal. Pretty easy to drink but the finish does have a bite. I’m always excited to try CSU’s collaboration beers and this one ain’t fucking bad.
