At the brew pub on draft is a clear light yellow with a slight white head. The aroma is of pine and citrus and the taste is more pine and a bitterness that lingers on the palate.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled in 11/2012. Pours clear nearly opaque dark brown color with a 1 finger dense khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice soapy lacing clings down the glass. Aromas of chocolate, roasted malt, oatmeal, cocoa, caramel, light coffee, floral, mint, and herbal earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with solid balance and complexity of roasted notes with a prominent amount of hops. Taste of dark chocolate, roasted malt, oatmeal, toast, caramel, light coffee, floral, mint, and herbal earthiness. Slight earthy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of dark chocolate, roasted malt, cocoa, oatmeal, caramel, light coffee, and earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice balance and complexity of roasted malt flavors with light-moderate hop presence; with good robustness and zero cloying flavors present after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a creamy and fairly slick mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with almost zero warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a very nice oatmeal stout. Well balance with nice flavor robustness and complexity; and very smooth to drink. A very enjoyable offering.

Well shit. I can’t find an Arizona beer on the shelves in California, but here it is in Atlanta? What the fuck. Anyway, here is state #47. Bottle. Pours hazy amber with a large creamy white head and some weird looking small black particles sinking to the bottom. Great lacing tho. Aroma is somewhat unpleasant, actually, bathroom aromas with some caramel and bready malts. Not much going on in the hops department. This must be an old sample, but it is notched November 2012, which isn’t too bad. Flavor is better than aroma, pine and caramel with lingering bathroom. Nothing to write home about. Very light sweet and light plus bitterness lingering to the far finish. Not a very good start to my Arizona beer adventure.
