Tap at the brewpub. Clear golden color, white head. Aroma of lemon. Taste of lemon. Extremely bitter. Not sure that all the citrus is from the hops.

Throwdown. From a growler. Garnet color. Sweaty smoky ashy aromas. Smoky caramel flavor with a dry finish, easy light palate.

Throwdown. From a growler. Deep bronze color. Nice citric hoppiness. Very pleasing nose indeed. There’s also a strong floral component in there. Flavor seems fairly light and thinned out, with just a touch of bready malts and very little hop flavors or bitterness, in contrast to the aroma. Clean.

The growler (courtesy hopscotch) poured out clear dark amber – garnet – brown with tan head and mild lacing. The aroma is mildly earthy, mildly smoky and contains some burnt malts. Nice yet mild. The taste starts with roasty malts and mild burnt malts that are only mild players in the flavor arena. Midway a mild smokiness pops up along with faint earthiness. Nice sessionable brew.

Big thanks to Dragonstout for bringing this growler.
Pours deep dark mahogany with thin tan head. The aroma has big Folgers freeze dried coffee grounds. Behind that is sweet molasses, alcohol, roasted malts and a hint of chocolate. The taste is much like the aroma with coffee, dark chocolate, more hints of chocolate, roasted malts, a hint of astringency, molasses sweetness and some alcohol.
