22 oz bottle courtesy of Suttree. The pour is a golden brown, mostly clear, with a huge 4 inch noisy tan head. The head falls rockily with a lot of crackling. The aroma is caramel malt sweetness, along with a grassy floral hop. The taste is toasted caramel, grassy huskiness, and a chemical floral. The aftertaste also shows a bit of alcohol heat, which was surprising at 7% abv. As the beer warms, the chemical roughness becomes pronounced. The palate is light to medium bodied, some pretty rough carbonation and the bright dry alcohol in the finish. Thanks for sending this my way, Phil.

Bomber courtesy of Suttree. Thanks! Pours a hazy red-amber color with a large fizzy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of toffee malts with green apple and a faint bit of band-aid. The taste is strong nail polish. Faint toffee and nuttiness but most a very harsh chemical note. Thin-medium bodied. Sadly. this is majorly off. Probably more off than any beer I’ve ever encountered. Completely undrinkable and an instant drain pour.

Growler from Bleeng. Pours a dark amber with a very small quickly diminishing light tan head. The aroma is raisin malt and caramel. Thin mouthfeel and a bit flat with a smokey oak finish. A good amber from Blue Pants.

Sample at the HYP beer tasting. Pours dark brownish-red with minimal head. The aroma is bread, nuts, apples and light citrus. The flavor is fairly bitter with a good malt backbone, yet not really balanced. The palate is medium with lots of carbonation and a little astringent. Overall, an interesting beer with lots of flavor, but not really going anywhere.
