$2.00 can, Beer Run. Pours clear golden with a half-inch of white head. Smells of wet dog, grainy cereal - perhaps a dog food/kibble aroma. Flavor is grainy - it tastes like the way dog food smells. Also has flavors of cardboard, grass, earth, minor minor minor citrus. Pass.

Draft at a Potomac Nationals game. Poured a nearly pitch black color, at least from a distance - really dark brown color with a small tan head. Aroma was a ton of roasted malt notes, dark chocolate notes, light coffee. Light smoky malts, caramel malts. Maple isn’t really too noticeable.

Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a weizen glass. Deep golden with small white head. Aroma is light cherry, medium body, medium/light carbonation, and pretty good small-bubble lacing. Taste is wheat esters and a little cherry.

Nice copper and amber coloured body with a smooth, three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of pale malt, a touch of cardboard and caramel and a bit of hops noticeable. Medium-bodied; Strong rich caramel and malty flavours with a little alcohol bitterness, some piney and floral hops and a nice dose of sugars at the end. Aftertaste shows a nice robust malty flavour with good hops, a bit of sugar and a pleasant balance throughout. Overall, a nice IPA that I wasn’t expecting to be as good as it was! Nice to sample and a big ’thank you’ to all the service men and women who keep us all safe. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 07-July-2016 for US$2,79 sampled in my hotel room in New York, New York on 21-January-2017.

Bottle from Total Wine. Pours a clear gold with a tiny head. Aroma is nothing to get excited about; in fact, it smells very much like a cheap lager with a little hint of fruit. Flavor is quite bland. Slightly lagerlike, slightly wheat-beer like with, again, the tiniest hint of fruit in the end.
