Pour is a almost black with a small tan head. Aroma is dark malt, maybe some cocoa and even a slight hop. Flavor is more of a char malt with bakers chocolate and a super dry finish. Pretty decent and flavorful for a brown ale. Probably need to be more around 5% abv but that is a minor complaint.

Pour is a clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is vanilla. It reminds me of the icing you get on those store bought birthday cakes. Flavor is again vanilla but not as sweet as I thought it was going to be. Finish leaves a harsh dry grain on the tongue. Not that great and I defy anyone to have more than one of these in a sitting.

Bottle shared at Aaron's birthday at Lucky Bamboo. Thanks for sharing Aaron! Pours a clearish plum red with a small bit of off-white foam that lingers. Blackcurrant, plum and sweet tart aromas with some light mineral and mild funk as it warms. Black cherry on the palate with some mineral notes and lovely spritzy, champagne-like carbonation. More blackcurrant, plum and faint wild strawberry notes with light leaf and mineral. Not overly tart, but more of sweet tart tang that lingers. Very good.

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo for Aaron's birthday. Pours a clearish gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Lovely funky aromas with pear, oak, grass and stone fruit aromas as it warms. Tart on the palate with passion fruit, more creamy oak and nice vanilla undertones. Spritzy carbonation with a refreshing palate-cleansing finish. Very good.

Draught at Gezelig: pours hazy with a white head. Aroma is lightly peachy, but there is not much there really. That said the taste is nice and smooth with a delicate peachy touch. Not what I expected.
