On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy opaque yellow with a medium white head. Nose brings out Belgian yeast, some banana-like fruity esters, and floral hops. Flavour is very floral and soapy, with Belgian yeast and fruity esters. I'd it's more of a Belgian beer than an IPA. Nevertheless, a very solid hybrid

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy dark blond color with small compact head. The aroma is mild, herbal, fruity, orangey, spicy; harmonious. Off-dry and lean mouthfeel; mild ginger flavor, reasonable bitterness level; light but appreciated bready touch; the cardamom is very light but may be found in the far final.
I’m not a big fan of Witbiers and spiced beers, but this one is well brewed and wisely spiced.

Draught at the brewery
Murky blond color with medium compact head. The aroma is fresh and spicy (coriander), herbal (lemongrass), and a bit fruity (citrus fruits). Smooth mouthfeel; strong spicy character, orange peel, strong bitterness, some yeast traces; strong hop resins in the final, with a vegetable touch.
Reasonably refreshing, but there is some clash between the spices, orange peel and strong bitterness.

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.

Draft - Fresh sweet pine. Clear gold with a thin white head. Very resinous and dry, but a well balanced bitterness. Nothing spectacular but very solid and easy drinking.
