Draught at Merland's Tap and Table, 6/6/26.
Bright and juicy with good acidity and tons of mango character. Rich malts lend white bread and honey-like notes to easily balance. Clean, not overly yeasty or resinous.
Big and juicy with rich, round malt. Hints of light pine and more grapefruit balance the burly body and deep juiciness. Malts are rich up front but do dry out enough on the finish, properly so. Just a ton of flavor from start to finish, while being clean and well-made. Very impressive for 6%.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: amber color with some transparency and a one and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: jalapeno peppers up front with a light maltiness underneath
Flavor: mainly the jalapeno pepper spiciness - I'm trying to find the malts but don't really find them; finishes with the jalapenos
Texture: light to medium bodied, this is a sipper; not exactly a smooth one, but the spicy heat just seems there as if it's a bit settled and not necesarily eye watering or tongue numbing
Overall: not sure how fresh or how old it was but part of me wonder if this would be better labeled on Brewver as "spiced/herbal/vegetable/honey" then the substyle of "spiced" as I'm having difficulty seeing the "cream ale" aspect in this beer but I guess the brewer calls it a cream ale, so there's that.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown with light dark red hues along the sides and more of black color in the center with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: roasted dark malts, black coffee-like, dark chocolate, subtle dark fruits and some earthiness
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bitter to roasty quality; finishes semi-roasty and toasty with a light dryness
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness, light roastiness nicks the tongue ever so slightly - nothing offensive
Overall: a nicely done porter that seemed to lean towards an English style of a porter.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with a two finger white foamy head which trailed off to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: grapefruit, floral and herbal hop tones, light caramel/toffee malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fair bittersweet to bitter quality; finishes malty and semi-dry with a touch of floral and mixed citrusy tones
Texture: medium bodied, leaning into being a sipper; light smoothness
Overall: nice old school DIPA I could revisit sometime.

Pounder can. Immature dago red wine nose, smells yummy. Pour is milky cloudy pinkish brown. Nice creamy thin attractive head. First taste is very very friendly tart wild open vat brew. Good first impressions on the taste buds. Has a really good level of cutting co2 as well, I love that. Goes down so easy, I think it has some traits of rodenbach. Yes, it actually feels and tastes somewhat like a Flemish sour brew. Could not stops sucking this down, it is pretty darn good! One of my favorite styles and this does not disappoint. Finishes without any of that processed feel. A truly well made wild beer! One of the better real wild beers out there. Thanks Concord! Balderdash, the can is empty already! Shouldah bought a six pack.

5 oz draft. Aroma has weak raspberry and old peach. Flavor has weak fruit and a sharper lactic acid. Overall, just ok for me.

16 oz can. Aroma is stale bread, toffee, mild yeast character. Malt shows bread / crackers and light toffee backbone with a very soft fruit like hop in the finish. Pretty much what you would expect.

16 oz can. Aroma and flavor are a carbon copy. Grapefruit, orange, and a very mild herb undertone. Absolutely zero bitterness with some juicy texture. The only fly here is the booze is not hidden. About average for a imperial NEIPA.
