Draft @ rattle & hum. Not much head at all. Tastes ok but overall kind of blah blah blah. inoffensive I guess.

From tap at Barcade, New York. Brewed with real ants? Sweet with roasted malt, caramel, some chocolate syrup. Flavour is sweet and mild bitter. Medium to full. Sweet with caramel, chocolate, ants (apparently). Doesn't really need the ant gimmick.

Can shared in London - picked up in the US. Pours clear, rich amber-gold with a small, foamy off-white head. Medium sweet flavour, notes of well toasted malts, caramel, soft earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, average carbonation. Semi-sweet finish, more rich malt character, toffee and caramel vibes, nips of berries. Easygoing dopp.

Pours hazy straw into a shaker. White head with little retention recedes to nothing. Dusty tropical fruit aromas. Soft with fruit skin and pith front to back.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Redstone Liquors, Stoneham. Appearance is opaque black with chestnut brown at the bottom of the glass, tons of sparkle at the sides of the glass, 5(!)-finger light brown, rocky-foam, crackling (like a summer rain) head (like a root-beer float--was this 4-pack dropped?) with good retention (was actually kind of annoying waiting for it to fade to finish the pour), and no lacing. Aroma is mix of roasted malt, milk chocolate and light nuts, earth, effervescent smell like fresh rain. Taste is rich, roasted malt, light chocolate, earth, nuts, hint of bubble gum. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, lively-to-fizzy, stinging carbonation and bittersweet finish as taste. Overall, the head is too big--annoying--aroma and taste are decent with a little intrigue and the palate is distracting and not fitting for the style. Fix those elements, and there could really be something here.
