Draft at Churchkey. Clear bright amber color, white head. Nice aroma of citrus and summer fruit. Taste is big, juicy, bittersweet. Dry finish. Very tasty.

Draft at Churchkey. Opaque clear brown color, tan edge head. Yoou’ll never guess what the aroma is like. OK, yes, you’re right. Taste is more beer than coffee, with brownies dipped in you-know-what.

Citrus and even a hint of mint. Pours hazy with decent head and lacing. Light bitter finish. Easy drinking. Tap at Scion.

Draft at Churchkey. The third beer I’ve come across with this name. Listed under their Tart & Funky category, but could also be listed as a stout. Very dark clear maroon color, large bubble tan head. Aroma of cherries dipped in cocoa and sourdough brownies. Taste is softly sour chocolate covered cherries. Dark sours don’t work very often imho, but this one does. Sourness is more prominent than the fruit or cocoa.

Draft at Churchkey. Opaque dark brown color, almost black, big bubble tan head. Aroma of Turkish raki. Taste has licorice, a hint of burnt rubber 10,000 times more subtle than Mikkeller Black, vanilla, cocoa, burnt espresso. Interesting and drinkable. One of the best foraged sassafras beers I’ve had, although I’ve had countless beers with farmed sassafras.
