My local beer place had a can of Haymaker in the cooler. Close to being out of date, maybe past that point but I have liked Spindletap's beers previously. It was worth the chance. 16 oz can found at Mr. T's, I have lifted the tab and am tilting inside of a snifter. The view is a really hazy, gold-orange liquid carrying a top of icy white foam. I get a nose of citrus and tropical perhaps in equal amounts, we will see where this goes. The taste tilts towards tangerine, grapefruit and lemon rind supported by mangoes, white bread, pineapple and a bit of dankness. A pleasant tasting IPA supported by a healthy ABV that brings some depth. Somewhat bitter and going more towards a sweetness, a nice brew.

On tap at Man in the Moon. Hazy orange with a small white head. A bit tart with passionfruit, mild perfume and lime. Not really my cup of tea.

500ml bottle. Opaque, dark amber-ish, brown colour with small, frothy to macropore, fading, off-white head. BA supported, or rather dominated, caramel malty aroma, hints of almond, cinnamon, Bourbon, vanilla, marzipan, berries, pear. Taste is sweet-ish, caramel and minimally toasty malty, BA notes of marzipan, almond, Bourbon, vanilla, hints of cinnamon, pear; minimally dry, papery and minimally warming, alcoholic finish.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Rather clumsy brew profits immensely from BA; simple and monotonous, all subtleties stem solely from the Balcones barrels - a bit fake.

Geiles Dosendesign, in der Nase super fruchtig, harzig, Pinien. Optisch trüber Osaft. Im Trunk Fruchtbombe, Multivitamin, süß, gefährlich süffig. Hinten trocken, aber verhältnismäßig wenig Nachhall für den starken Antrunk. Trotzdem top notch.

12 oz. can from H-E-B, Boerne, TX. Pours a clear, very dark amber color with a small beige head and poor retention. No lacing. Aroma of dark malt and some chocolate. The flavor is also dark malt with some chocolate notes. Thin body. Low carbonation, almost flat. Not bitter. The 7.0% ABV is very well hidden. I like the flavor, but it’s not a great beer.
