4oz pour at Churchkey pours a clear, rootbeer brown with some clumpy, white head. Nose has a ton of vanilla, banana, rootbeer, a little coconut. Flavor is a little weaker, banana, vanilla, caramel, banana cream pie. Thin finish.

Pretty tasty for style. Lots of interesting malt in here that comes through with nice aromas despite steaming. Medium thick consistency. Light hops in finish with a little citrus zest. Tap at Churchkey.

22oz bottle I picked up at a artisans market at Union Market in DC. Pours a clear amber with some thin, eggshell head. Nose is interesting, some muddled dark fruit, plum, malt, some orange peel but then a lot of tomato and a little celery seed. Flavor is the same, some mild sweetness, some tart tomato, herbal, oddly savory too. Slightly sticky finish. Very strange.

4oz pour an inky black with some creamy beige head. Nose is nice, chocolate, coconut, vanilla, some booze, some cake icing, some cherry, some molasses. Flavor has a flick of pepper, vanilla, coconut, wood pulp, caramel, cherry, medicinal. Hot, peppery finish. All over the place.

Draft at ChurchKey for Night of the Living Ales: Part 3, thanks to Travlr. Poured a very pale, hazy yellow color with a large white head. Aroma was notes of lemon, some tart notes. Palate has some touch of earthy notes and some chalk. Okay.
