Can (1/8/20) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is deeply hazy dark brown with swirling fine sediment and large light floaties, no sparkle, 3-finger width creamy beige foam head with good retention and mild leggy lacing. Aroma is strong earthy roasted malts, bordering on ash, nuts, mild toffee. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with dry, mild lingering bitterness. Overall, pretty straightforward brown ale with decent strength. On the thick side.

16 oz. can. Canned on 3/11/20. Aroma of light pine, tropical fruit notes, yeast. Flavor is quite good. Not familiar Grüngeist hops. This combo works well. Citrus, tropical fruit, with a very subtle pine aftertaste. Bready malt. Juicy texture with a very mild bitterness. Well constructed.
