Can. Deep reddish brown, close to black, colour with a mediumsized off-white foamy head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is sweet malts, some toffee, mild roasted and chocolaty tones with a bit of wood as well. Flavour is chocolate, some nutty tones, mild wood and some bitterness with liquorice and roast too.

Bumpy road here; heavy wort-ish malt notes with a slight hint of mildew mix with a prominent piney hop back end and a weird, cardboard-leaning fade. The booziness is well-hidden, but this beer is in desperate need of fine-tuning.

Pretty sure pale ales shouldn't come bursting out of the can and all over the floor with the reckless exuberance of my can of Belle. Overcarbonated is an understatement; this beer shot suds all over my kitchen like it was being drunk by Stone Cold after whipping McMahon's ass on Raw. Otherwise...not a good introduction to the brewery, with an odd, overly yeasty lemon backbone against mild cracker malts and a pronounced but fleeting citric hop presence. Slight dank tones pop up on the fade, but also a lingering tart note that seems out of place. Messy beer in multiple ways.

Tap @ The Vortex, Atlanta. Golden with a small head. Its crispness hides some of its strength. Has a light pale ale texture.

Bottle courtesy of Cybercat, thank you! Slow gusher. Opaque ruby maroon color, beige ice cream cone head. Aroma of fruity coffee. Taste is lightly earthy coffee and dark fruit. Hi carbonation interferes with mouthfeel a bit. Still pretty decent.
