16 ounce can from Tavour. Amber red pour is topped by a frothy tan head. Toasted malt aroma has notes of nutmeg and cinnamon. Flavor is caramel malt with spicy notes. Subtle hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and orange peel. Some nuttiness as well. Nuanced flavors that remind me somewhat of Anchor Brewing’s Our Special Ale ( I really miss that one!). Overall, pretty tasty and the moderate ABV means you can have few, if you want to…

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark purple in color with a quickly dissipating little white foamy head that didn't leave any lace
Aroma: sweet plum flesh and tart skin with a sly amount of lactose and vanilla
Flavor: tart, sweet and sour combining the plums to the lactose and vanilla; finishes like plums dipped in sweet cream
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium, some sort of sessionability and some smoothness to this with some tart & sour harshness assertively brushing the tongue
Overall: nicely done plum tart ale well worthy of more pours.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark murky burnt orange color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace

Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a bitter to bittersweet juiciness; finishes citrusy peel sweet to bitter toned
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, good smoothness, some low carb, and fairly low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: nicely done NEPA worthy of coming back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange haziness; one finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: lots of citrusy juicy hops; some tropical hoppiness and a touch of piney hops further in the back; mild clean malts
Flavor: bittersweet juicy blend of those hops with the malts; mild aftertaste of the citrusy hops
Texture: medium bodied, some sessionability about it; some smoothness along the tongue; finishes juicy hopped with a little bit of clean malts
Overall: another nicely done NEIPA I would have again.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: burnt orange semi-glossy but leaning towards more hazy with a one finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: wonderful blend of citrusy hop notes; pineapples, light mangoes and a light dose of berry hop scents; clean malts underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet juicy quality; nice aftertaste of pineapples and citrusy hoppy vibes
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable; semi-smooth along the tongue, some creaminess; finishes semi-crisp with a touch of dry citrusy hop notes
Overall: nicely done NEIPA I wouldn't mind banging again.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: pours black and is black in the glass with a quickly dissipating head which barely left any lace.
Aroma: big roasted malts, coffee sweetness, toasted nuts, coffee roasted-ness; some vanilla; authentic coconut lightly in there
Flavor: moderately blends all the prior noted aromas to semi-sweet to roasty fashion and has a nice aftertaste of the roasted coffee and vanilla
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; clean smooth vibes along the tongue; finishes semi-roasty with the vanilla and coconut providing some light sweetness
Overall: a very balanced stout well worthy of returning to.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: glossy burnt yellow to orange color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: grapefruity, mango-y and guava hop tones running through some citrusy hops and mesh with some sweet grassy hop tones; clean biscuity malts underneath
Flavor: a very nice bittersweet blend of the prior noted aromas with a clean aftertaste of citrus, mango and and guava notes
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; moves nicely along my tongue in a smooth almost creamy way; mild finish of some sticky fruity hop notes with light hop spice
Overall: I say a very nicely done NEIPA I would very much love to return to.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a thin off white foamy head head which died off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: roasted malts, milk chocolate, coffee, toasted nuts and some vanilla bean smooth sweetness
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas nicely to a smooth toasty and sweet balance; mild aftertaste of chocolate, vanilla and some dark chocolate
Texture: medium bodied, some sessionability; good balance between the roast and smooth aspects running along my tongue; finishes semi-roasty and a touch of the vanilla to mellow that out
Overall: an extremely well balanced porter - so much that I'm not exactly sold on why this is considered a pastry porter on Brewver but I'll just let the rest of that go and move on.
