16 ounce can. Pours a cloudy orange hue with a large white head. A huge bursting nose of citrus. Sweet, big citrus, mango, pineapples, soft biscuit base. This is a lovely top E Coast IPA. Damn good. Smooth. Tangerine, pear, more pineapples.

Clear yellow gold with white head. Grass and veld-y hop aroma. Medium bodied with a balance of malt and hop. Good if you find it.

Bottle poured. Picked up at Beer Mongers on the day of the release. Much anticipation to try this one. Jet black pour, tan fizzing head. Aroma is a balsamic like constant, and a bit offputting. Strange. Flavor is balsamic as well, but not quite as intense as so in the aroma. Salted caramel like flavor to it once it starts to warm up. Some toasty chocolate malts, but even when it warms, still too much vinegar. Yikes. Not very pleasant of a stout for me. File under the retry folder. Couldn't get on board with this.

On tap at Belmont Station, pours a deep dark amber with a small white head. Nose brings out English malt, caramel malt and light treacle toffee. Flavour is medium sweet, with English bready malt, toffee and caramel. Low hops, but not too sweet. A really lovely English barleywine.

16 ounce can. Pours a mostly cloudy orange hue with a medium white head. A big tropical fruity nose. A lovely flavor, really unique which is almost unheard of in IPAs today. A cross between a E and big West Coast IPA: juicy, mango, bitter citrus, lemons, some softer malt. Bursting with flavor. Awesome beer. Super unrated as Culmination is.
