On tap. Pours with a clear golden hue with a lasting white head. Aromas are of candied orange, tangerine, caramel, tamarind, esters and floral notes. Flavors are of stanky dank hop notes and citrus. Some strong tannic extracted astringency kills it though. Nut shells, bitter, citrus peel, astringent. Grassy. Lively bubbles and dry. Nearly there.

Tap at the Rubicon. Pours darkly ruddy amber. Aroma suggests malt. Med plus body. Flavor is rich warming malt with a little hop, and suggestions of medium dark fruit. Enough hop to tone down the malt. Pretty nice.

Pours bright medium amber with a creamy near white head. Resin aroma. Maybe some floral. Med body. Flavor is lots of resin hop with some floral aspects. Caramel in the background. It’s really hoppy and bitter. Very good.
