Bottle from gnashville, ta. Brownish black with a thin head. Very light caramel aroma. Flavor is much stronger, smoked, roasted, malty raisin. Very drinkable.

Boston growler from the brewery
Black color with small head; pouring oily, gives the impression that there is not much carbonation. The aroma is mainly roasted malt, then there is a hint of bread and roasted nuts, coffee. Dry and smooth mouthfeel; little carbonation, but enough; roasted malt flavor, with some chocolate and coffee; correct bitterness; the yeast gives a small milky and spicy character, and mild final astringency.
Good.

Draught at the brewery
Amber color, clean, with creamy head. The aroma is hoppy, very nice, with a good mix of hops that is not just Citra, with more orangey detour. The mouthfeel is quite smooth; nice body strength; good caramel flavor, light residual sweetness, strong bitterness; the hops are quite resiny and with some citrus fruits character too; long final, with a light yeast presence and light subsequent astringency.
Flawless, clean, nice to drink.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of oats, some lactose-like sweetness, and chocolate. Flavour brings out dry cocoa, some oats, and a slight tart metallic notes. Very dry, lightly tart, and lightly dry cocoa-y. There's also a lightly spicy component to it. Quite nice stout.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a clear pale yellow with a medium white head. Aroma brings out some citrusy and tropical fruits, and dry piney hops. Flavour brings out dry piney hops, and crackery malts. Bone dry palate with a lingering astringency. Pretty nice balance. Decent but rather boring.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy orange amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out a potent fruity hoppiness, quite a bit of resin and dry zestiness. Flavour is very potent for a pale ale, bringing out loads of floral and fruity hops, and considerable caramel sweetness. Quite a bit sweeter than I like my pale ales usually, but the drinkability is still fairly high. Flawed, but enjoyable.

Draft - Roasted malts and medium roast coffee. Very mellow bitterness. Jet mahogany with a thin brown head. Sweet and syrupy with chocolate roasted malts. A bit cloying bit nice with desert. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
