On tap at Aslan, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out citrus hops, some resins, and caramel biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of robust resinous hops, booze and sweet caramely biscuity malt. Not too malty, but there does seem to be some residual sweetness from the hop oils. Sticky and rather boozy, but overall well-balanced enough. Okay. Also, minus a point for the price tag on this: $4 for a 4 oz - unacceptable.

Hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a thin off-white head. Aroma of grain, light alcohol, a touch of caramel and toffee and a bit of subdued and earthy hops. Medium-bodied; Assertive earthy and grainy flavours dominate at first with a little sweetness from caramel noticeable, along with a bit of a herbal and astringent flavour near the end of hops, malts, flowers and a touch of metal near the end. Aftertaste shows some pungency with the earth and metal the strongest along with a faint bitterness and almost no sweetness at all - just deep malty flavours here. Overall, a strong and relatively simple beer with alcohol, grain, earth and astringency noticeable throughout - not very hoppy and not complex at all. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Pear Delicatessen in Seattle, Washington [state] on 18-February-2017 for US$2,25 sampled on 23-May-2017 in [the real] Washington on the other end of the country.

On tap at Elizabeth Station, pours a hazy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, with a fairly dank character and biscuity malt. Flavour follows accordingly, with dank, piney hops upfront and backed with crisp biscuity malt. Wonderfully structured, with no harshness at all. Very good.
