Can to becher glass.
Appearance: milky orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which trailed off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: grapefruit & strawberries - sweet and tart tones up front while a slight sour-ish whiff comes up front underneath; light malty tone further underneath
Flavor: wraps up the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to tart to subtle sour and even a little bit of bittersweetness; finishes mostly with the grapefruity to strawberry-ish tones
Texture: light to medium bodied; quite sessionable; clean smoothness; good level of carb; brisk hop bitterness
Overall: for a 4.8% beer, daggum - there's a ton of flavor in this beer, woweeeee! I'd return to this if I could.

Thanks Jeremy for this can from New-York. An excellent porter more stout, I could say, powerfu aromas, roasted malt, cacao, coffee, hop, 23.09.18, at Colmar, during a trip in family.

Can to tulip.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: semi-clear bronzed yellow with a quickly dissipating head, no lace
Aroma: blood orange sweetness and super subtle tartness, subtle sweet grassy tones underneath
Flavor: copies the aromas pretty nice; brisk aftertaste of blood oranges
Texture: light to medium bodied, between sessionable and being a sipper; semi-smooth along tongue; finishes crisp with the blood oranges
Overall: nicely done blood orange ale even if Common Roots should have had as a regular "fruit beer," no harm no foul, I'd still have this again.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: glazed dark puple in color with a two finger off white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some nice lace
Aroma: strawberries - yes, raspberries - yes, boysenberries - yes; mild semi-creamy backbone
Flavor: mixes on up all those prior mentioned fruits to a wonderful sweet to tart blending; subtle aftertaste of those mixed berries
Texture: medium bodied - hmmmm, maybe a touch under, leaning towards the sipping side; semi-creamy along the tongue; finishes with all those mixed berries
Overall: a very nicely done fruited sour more than worthy of returning to.
