Crowler to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown color with a three finger off white foamy head which took it's time to dissipate and left some light lace.
Aroma: smells like Samoa cookies - you know the dark chocolate laced coconutty and caramel character and light pastry-ish sort of cookies. Smells great!
Flavor: pretty much the Samoa cookies again, quick aftertaste of caramel, coconut and dark chocolate
Texture: between light and medium bodied, somewhat sessionable; fairly smooth on my tongue; finishes with the coconut, caramel and milk chocolate
Overall: I'd say a nicely done dessert brown ale that would be good again on early Spring evenings. If they did an imperial one of these, now I would definitely like to try that on a cold Winter's night.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a two and a half fingers of khaki foamy head which slid off pretty nicely.
Aroma: milk and dark chocolate tones; some coffee roastiness, dark toast, sweet oats and dark fruits
Flavor: moderately sweet capturing the prior mentioned aromas with a subtle roasty contour assisting in the balance; sly aftertaste of some sweet ash, oats, dark fruits and milk chocolate
Texture: about medium bodied - perhaps a touch under; somewhat sessionable, fairly smooth with a touch of roast; finishes smooth, oaty and roasty'
Overall: pretty good oatmeal stout worthy of coming back to.

Can to becher pint glass.
Appearance: thick hazy bright orange color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: floral hoppiness; orangey to citrusy hoppy tones; light biscuity malts
Flavor: combines all the prior mentioned aromas bittersweetly; mild aftertaste of flowers and oranges
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability to this; juicy smooth on the tongue; finishes flowery and juicy
Overall: I'd say it works as a lower-ish ABV-ed NEIPA, I'd have again.

Undated can shared by tfontana on 11/1/25.
Juicy citrus, wood, soft pine and lemon with white bread and other supportive malts.
Juicy for a West Coast inspired IPA. Soft and lightly woody and piney but not resinous or bitter. Cracker and a bit of soft malt with light sweetness. Is a nice amount of flavor for its size.

From Beer Drop, no dating on the can.
It pours a clear reddish brown with a 2 finger head of foam, very good lacing.
The smell is malty, nutty, some notes of milk chocolate, some mild bitterness that reminds me of dark chocolate.
The taste is nutty, semi sweet, milk and dark chocolate. Little bit of roast. I expected it to be sweeter than it is but I am not disappointed.
Good mouthfeel. Good Nut Brown Ale.
