Roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, some sweetness. Taste is along the same lines, a bit roasty, a lot of coffee and roasted malts. Smooth, nice body. Good one. So sorry that the brewery got closed :(

On tap at Resident, pours a clear dark copper with a small white head. Aroma is sweet, with syrupy caramel, resinous hops, and a little pine. Flavour is on the sweet side, with resinous hops, pine, and sweet malt. Quite sweet, somewhat jagged, but otherwise okay. Nothings particularly enthralling about the hop expression. Clumsy but respectable.

On tap at Resident, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of toasted malt, fermented out sugars, and some light booze. Flavour is rather messy, with dark fruits, sugar and booze. It's a messy concoction, but not a disaster, just lacking coordination. Not great.

On tap at Resident, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, plenty of resins, melon and sweet biscuity malt. Flavour has a strange hop expression, with some overripe tropical fruits, pine, resins, and sweet biscuity malt. Weird hop expression. Not bad, just not particularly enthralling.

On tap at Resident, pours an opaque, atrociously filthy brownish yellow — like someone diarrhea'd in glass. Aroma is putrid, with vomit, hopburn and chalk—this smells as awful as it looks. Flavour is even worse—Jesus Christ—this is absolutely atrocious. Chalk and hopburn galore with dirty yeast, soil, and compost bin. How can you serve this vile garbage? Undrinkable. Embarrassing product.

On tap at Abnormal, pours a clear a blonde with a small white head. Aroma is super fruity, with juicy stone fruits, some resinous hops and juicy citrus. Flavour is more IPA-like, with grapefruit hops, pine, and juicy stone fruits. Manages to be both juicy and bitter in the best of ways. Excellent.
