On nitro tap at Apex, pours a hazy dark copper orange with a medium white head. Aroma brings out weird herbal hops and some stale biscuity malt. Flavour is similar, with skunky herbal hops and biscuity malt that's a bit stale. Not the most pleasant of flavours. Okay.

Draught at Apex, Portland, nitro tap
Light amber color, clean, with the classic nitro head. It has some animal character (aroma and flavor), light hemp; there are also some other good hop characteristic, less malt presence, but it suffers because of lack of carbonation. The final is a bit papery.
Stop nitro!

Growler @ Frank’s (Ramnuts) tasting - 06/11/12. Lightly hazed mid amber with a thin off white head. Nose comprises citrus tones, light notes of sourness, touch of caramel hops. Taste follows nose, light hops and mineral tones. Medium bodied with soft carbonation and a bitter finish.
