On tap at The Met. Hazy and quite pale with a fairly thick head. The aroma has clean pale malts, and a light smoky nose. Nice lacing. Pale malts and the same mellow smoke on the palate...some underlying poopy pedio being the only issue of note.

Growler from the brewery. Fairly hazy, amber-brown. Aroma has some strong phenols including a touch of bubblegum, and some dusty yeast. Flavour is sweeter up front but there is a bit of tartness as well. The phenols are toned down but there is some yeast character as well. Ok but definitely needs refinement.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Murky amber color with thick creamy head. Banana aroma, a bit spicy. Smooth mouthfeel, some banana flavor, some rye, but also too much yeast, quite astringent, dirty feeling.
Unrefined.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours an opaque dirty dark amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out notes of rye, banana and clove. Flavour brings out notes of banana and clove upfront, followed by toasted bread. Well-balanced, with a rather chewy palate. Decent beer.
