Taster at brewery. This black pour, flat. Not sure what happened here, but the best analogy I could come up with is Hershey's syrup and Robitussin. very bad attemp, tasted more like a cheap chocolate covered cherry than chocolate milk. Did not finish.

Draft at Old 690. Poured a nearly pitch black, perhaps very dark cola color with a small off-white head. Aroma was roasted malts, light coffee. Pleasant, easy to drink porter. Nice on a cool fall day. Light bitter coffee, very light bitter chocolate.

Draft at the brewery. Poured a light amber color, light ruby notes. Looks like a classic double IPA. Clear. Medium sized white head. Aroma was heavy on the resin. Pine resin. Light bitter grapefruit, but not very fruit forward. A touch heavy on the malts, but pretty standard for a double IPA.
