On tap at the brewpub during GABF weekend. Pours with a somewhat hazy/murky brown body with a small off-white head. Aromas of brown sugars, esters, marzipan, rich wood and barrel notes. This is one of those beers you can smell for minutes at a time without taking a sip. Excellent. Flavors are fruity, lots of caramelization, cotton candy, rich malt vanillin and a really beautiful whiskey character. Lots of tannin, light bubbles, thick with just the right amount of alcohol punch. Amazing! Easily one of my favorite beers of the weekend!

Very dark brown. Fresh fruity hops on the nose. Light chocolate and mellow bitterness. A little bit funky. Not hoppy enough, despite the nice dry-hop aroma it isn’t there on the palate.

Bottle from the Denver brewpub. The beer is a reddish-brown color with a medium beige head that dissipates quickly. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel, dark fruit and yeast. Medium body with an effervescent mouthfeel and flavors of caramel malt, yeast and fruit. The finish is short with a Belgian spice aftertaste. Decent overall.

On tap @ downtown location. Cloudy, light banana yellow appearance with a frothy white head. Nose is dominated by wheat makes and a touch of fruitiness. Light bodied, easy drinking, unfiltered wheat with a mild fruitiness. Boring but not bad.

On tap @ downtown location. Deep brown appearance with a light brown head. Notable rye malts in the nose that are forefront that are complemented by a dark chocolatey aroma. Plenty of rye lightens the body somewhat with roasty, chocolate malty presence also notable. Pretty tasty brew.

Thanks to beastiefan2k for buying - hazy straw color - foamy head - seriously over carbonated, which makes the mouthfeel a little abrasive - nose of toasted wheat, dusty yeast, cobweb, citrus - a bit sweet up front, with some notes of orange - dries out through the middle, with some cracked grains, a little flinty character - yeasty, wheaty finish - not bad, really.
