Poured up on tap at the Chandler, AZ Whole Foods (who knew?) with deep clear copper body and nice looking tan head. The aroma offers up a good load of pine hops and then raisins and a faint level of black licorice. The taste is a bit thick with yummy rich prune, raisins and molasses notes. It later picks up a good level of pine hops to midway and carries nicely into the finish. The pine is only a supporting note here where the esters and malts are the forward component.

On tap at TCBF, pours cloudy orangey amber. Aroma of hops, spices and caramel malt. Flavour of spices (nutmeg, coriander), hops and caramel malts. Very nice.

On tap. Pours with a clear amber body with a tan head that lasts. Aroma is hoppy and quite malty featuring caramel, popcorn, raisins. Taste is raisins, cardboard (woody-papery), caramel, berry jam. Lively bubbles. Dry. Not bad, but feels a bit like an overly malty-under attenuated IPA.
