6pack of cans bought at Liquor Shed. I couldn't find a date. M
It pours a dark brown with reddish hues, mahogany?, small quickly dissipating head of foam.
The smell is a mix of roasted malt and grain, notes of nuts, and with that being said, comes across as on the sweet side.
The taste side is roasted malt and a nice nuttiness, very light bitterness, light sweetness, a Brown that fits my palate.
Medium describes the body and carbonation.
Very good Brown Ale.

Part of a mixed 12 pack bought at Liquor Shed.
Pours a clear gold, impressive and long lasting head of foam.
I'm getting a tropical fruit nose with mango, pineapple, grapefruit, sweet notes from the fruit and malt.
Taste follows the nose with a wee bit of dankness added. Finishes on the bitter side though overall, it's not very bitter.
Smooth medium mouthfeel.

Part of a mixed 12 pack bought at Liquor Shed.
Pours a clear pale gold, nice head of foam and lacing.
Smells hoppy, grainy, light sweetness and bitterness.
Hoppier than grainy taste. Hop crispness resembles noble hops, grain doesn't have a corn flavour. Yeah it does but it's very light.
Smooth drinker due in part to the good mouthfeel.
Excellent Lager.

Part of a mixed 12 pack bought at Liquor Shed.
Pours a lightly hazy medium gold, good head of foam that shrinks slowly, not much lacing.
Smells of tart fruit but also strong nose of grapefruit citrus. There's a bit of dankness as well.
Fruity tartness up front but dang, grapefruit bitterness counteracts the tartness really well. The hops are dry hopped like and now, I'm getting some orange zest.
Medium bodied with medium carbonation.
Well integrated mix of sour and bitter. Well brewed beer.

12 oz can purchased as a single at Tipsy’s Wine and Spirits in Mission, Kansas. The pour is an opaque black with a well formed tan head which falls slow with lace. The aroma is pine, floral hops and a softly roast malt. The taste is the roast malt, pine, a bit of citrus, floral and more of the roast char malt towards the back. The palate is medium bodied with soft carbonation and a clean roast soft bitter finish. Nice one.

Can, thanks to Unclemike. Pours faintly cloudy yellow with small creamy off-white head, faint vanilla aroma, high carbonation, mildly bitter flat wheaty taste, thin body, abrupt finish. Not very exciting.

Draft at Blue Skye in Salina, KS. Orange golden color. A very tea malts and fruit hops IPA. Very sweet IPA, even for me. As I keep drinking it becomes even more off putting with a sweet medicine like flavor.
