Draft at Cypress, 3/27/23. Hazy bright yellow pour. Really interesting flavor from the prickly pear and the hibiscus. Getting a lot of the cactus fruit and floral flavor and not a ton of the hop here. Easy drinker. Fun beer. Probably not one I want to session a ton of, but fun as a once off.

Draft at Cypress, 3/27/23. Interesting mix with the base stout flavors. Small pour is plenty for me, but it works pretty well. Plus, I learned about walnut syrup.

Draft at Cypress, 1/31/22. Dark brown, small light brown head. Tons of flavor, cinnamon / other spices, vanilla, and a bunch of other stuff. Bit of peppery spice to it as well. Damn good.
