Crazy 16oz pour at 1874 Taproom in Barranco. Opaque, thick looking dark orange brown with some lacing, off white head. This must be the end of the keg, looks like a milkshake. Nose has herbs and dried citrus rind, a touch stale, some orange, light malt. Flavor has dried grist, dried citrus peel, some soap, some herbs. Medium bodied, bitter finish. Perhaps a bit old, but everything else is in balance.

Bottle, pours a hazy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma is bizarre, with notes of ice cream, light resin, and a light caramel maltiness. Flavour brings out notes of resinous hops, caramel hops, and bready notes that mute the profile. Pretty muted and dull for the style, but certainly pleasant and drinkable. Best from the brewery that I've had.

Bottle, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma is very malty, with lots of bready malt and a touch of resinous hops. Flavour is also on the maltier side, with bready malt and a very subtle resinous hop profile. Very dull and uninspired, but inoffensive. It's okay.

Bottle, pours a dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma reveals notes of toasted malt and a touch of cocoa. Flavour is fairly mellow, with notes of toasted malt, faded cocoa and cardboard. Pretty bland but at least inoffensive. Meh.
