Glass mug at Sam's place, weak head. We blame George.
Clear, russet-y, dark amber pour with a gentle pinkish cascade.
Twangy, dry, berry skin, Skittle nose.
Acidic, aecitic, heavy vitamin dust, sour plums, baby powder, lingering yeast, kinda too dry.
Crispy, thin, a touch sharp, ending dry, good but could be better.

7oz pour at the source.
Dark iced tea, clear, milky, lingering dirty head.
Chimney smoke, dry grain, not a big nose.
Dry maple smoke on the front, beef, very subtle prickly fruit, cola, oats, mellow char, added black malt gives it a little hair. Irritating, peppery hops on the backwash are really nice.
Frothy, very acidic, thin, easy, super sessionable.
Good.

Wife's beer. I couldn't get enough of it for a review. Initial thought was very muted.

Dark brown cola, lingering lace.
Gentle & sweet citrus & floral nose that isn't obviously tangerine.
Mild astringency, not obvious at first but becomes juicy with a little warmth. Bright citrus pith, approachable bitterness, a lot of blackened malt near the tail. Zesty tangerine on the finish that lingers.
Interesting but the OG is probably better.

Default half pour at the source.
Dark matte, oily dirt brown. Lingering oatmeal head.
Sharp dark berry nose, apricot, obvious floral brett.
Medium twang, dry floral, earth, zesty citrus pith, black tea, lingering added dark malt that muddles things a bit.
Having had this before, this is another one where the OG is probably better. Still kinda great.

8oz pour at the source.
Off-black to inky black. Weak oatmeal head just there for the hors d'oeuvres.
Sooty, strong acid, everlasting char, middling veggie hops, dusty trail, bakers chocolate. One dimensional hops.
Dense, great acid, middle low but consist carb, dusty feel, okay satisfaction.
Decent.
