On draught at Horse Brass in Portland. Pours clear amber with a medium light beige head that diminishes steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of Amarillo hops primarily, plus some caramel malt. Medium body with a citrusy hops flavor as well as notes of earthy malt and pine. The finish is hoppy with a moderate bitterness that lingers a bit. Above average all around.

Bottle from Belmont Station. Pours ruby black with a 2-finger tan head. The hints of chocolate are not subtle. Medium plus body with very smooth carbonation. Flavor is very smooth dark malt with some chocolate for sure, and I am getting after notes of banana. Light, but banana. This finishes well balanced, not very bitter. It is really a tasty ale. Could be my desert island beer.
