On tap at the brewery. Pours a dark brown ruby with small beige head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is root beer and dark fruit. Thin mouth, boozy root beer, raisin, good.

On tap at Great Notion, pours a dee dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma smells exactly like a root beer. Flavour does as well, with the same sweetness as the soda as well. Surprisingly similar to the real thing. Good for what it is.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a dark brown color with a small white head. A huge spicy vanilla nose. The flavor really mirrors a root beer I think with clear honey, lots of sweetness, vanilla, big sarsaparilla. Good.
