35cl can, stating 6% AVB, pours with a nice crystal clear deep gold body that supports a lasting near white head of foam. The aroma offers up a modest level of vague to spicy hoppiness as well as malts, caramel malts and then a toffee sort of caramel sensation. The taste does indeed seem malt forward as I get caramel malt sweetness leading to a soft sweet mild kettle caramelization like sensation toward the finish. The hops in here are putting up a fight with some firm spicy to vaguely floral hop bitterness. Yeah. More sips reveals the hops are possibly winning the flavour battle here. Fun beer.

Can at Japanese place in Watertown, said like 64244 on the bottom, drunk 1/12/23. Clear, bright gold. Medium, white head, moderate retention. Some oxidation, peppery hops, hint of pine. Idk why I ordered this. Tastes lightly oxidized but more just old. Hops show only resin and light pine at this point though its reasonably attenuated and malty. Seems fine, I bet it's great fresh.

Can 35 cl. Pours a clear amber with a white head. Nose has toffee, fruit and perhaps a hint of diacetyl. Medium body, dry caramel accents and a somewhat crude, bitter finish. Sort of an English style IPA with next to no aromatics. 310722
