Draught at the brewpub. Pale golden. Vague bread aroma. Dryish and very light bodied with light papery malt flavour. The papery malt flavour is sadly the dominant feature. Low bitterness.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear golden. Sweaty lychee aroma. Dryish and very hop aromatic. An amazing juicy hop monster with pleasantly soft mouthfeel and only medium bitterness. One of the best examples of the style I have tasted.

Draught at the brewpub. Deep golden. Rich lychhee aroma. Dryish with rounded mouthfeel and firm body. Dominated by juicy hops, and that flavour prevails until the finish. A very aromatic IPA.

Sampled at the Ohio Labor Day gathering, provided by Styles. Dark red-brown body, translucent, next to no head. Licorice and toast aroma. The body seemed excessively licoricey to me, with toast and little else. Little in the way of complexity or character.

Dark amber, cloudy. Flowery pnw hop aroma. Hint of sticky malt. Sticky, resiny hops - not too bitter, though, with caramel sweetness. Fresh, off-dry character. Definitely not an alt but a nice beer.

Draught, at the brewery

Burnished amber colour. Grassy, earthy hop aroma with carame and brown sugar undertones. Toasty palate with a woody, hoppy finish. Hints of sweet malts and light nuttiness. PNW-style mild?

An excellent interplay of molasses and chocolate through out the beer and finishes very chocolatey.
