4 ounce draft. Aroma is marijuana. Flavor is mostly weed with a very mild tropical hint of fruit underneath it. Zero bitterness and a hint of juice in the texture. Really good if you like marijuana. Which I do not smoke! Earthy.

4 oz. draft. Aroma a soft fruit a little in the script. Flavor is Mile tropical hints. Again a little and describe but definitely has some juice in the texture. Well-made and easy to drink.

4 oz. sample. Aroma is sort of watermelon-ish. Flavor is definitely light and easy to drink. Light in body. Not sure I get watermelon from the flavor but it’s interesting.

Pint on tap at the brewery. It's a hazy medium-to-dark-brown with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, thin cap of creamy beige head. Aroma is light nuts, grain and caramel malt. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, pretty good for a mild ale.

Taster pour as part of a flight at the brewery. It's an opaque black with thin cap of beige head with fair retention. Aroma is earthy roasted malt and noble hops. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and dry finish as taste. Overall, drinks more like an Dry/Irish stout and it's a decent representative of that style. Not complex. A little thin.

Taster pour as part of a flight at the brewery. It's a clear, light-amber/dark orange with light sparkle, thin ring of off-white head. Aroma is pilsner malt and caramel malt. Taste follows aroma with mild fruit. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, it's pretty straightforward and pretty representative of the style.

Taster pour as part of a flight at the brewery. It's an opaque yellow with ring of off white head. Aroma is citrus and cracker malts with a bit of yeast. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not super juicy--more conventional IPA. OK.

Sample from the source. Hazy lemon yellow without much of a head. Huge peach nose and flavor, like sniffing a fresh overripe peach, amazing aroma. Lightly tart but huge peach flavor. Very nice brew.

Sample from the source. Inky black with a short off white head that dissipates. Rick roasty chocolate with a heavy hand of licorice and burnt sugary maltiness. Earthy hops provide little balance to the acrid malts. Really tasty!

Sample at the source. Bright amber color with great clarity and a frothy short lived off white head. Rich bready toasty maltiness with hints of dried fruits and a light warming alcohol. Sweet and strong, pretty tasty bock.
