Good in the scope of all beers, but nor great for the style. Should be much more body for the alcohol content, which is very warming a powerful.

22 oz. bottle, pours a murky dark reddish brown with a tiny white head. Aroma is nasty, with loads of phenols, nasty spices, and earthy notes. Flavour is very sour, with earthy notes dirt, disgusting spices and vomit. Absolutely disgusting shit. What would inspire this?

Hazy medium brown. Phenolic, and there is a lot of herbs, like rosemary and sage. Sour rosemary. So sour. Why it this so sour? Come on, we all know this isn’t what it’s supposed to taste like, what’s with selling this to people?

Murky brown color, no head. Aroma of spicy cake, cinnamon. No carbonation, lemon acidity, some spices, cake.
Definitively weird, not completely bad.

650mL bottle, pours black with a reddish hue and a small tan head. Aroma is a little sour, with toasted caramel and weird tartness. Flavour brings out roasted malt, some fairly harsh hopping, and some strange perfumey notes. Thin, oddly-balanced and some weird almost tart notes. Okay.

Tasting at Matt’s
Dark brown color, near black, small beige head. This beer is heavy on the roasted malts, the aroma is also a bit animal, dank, and the resins from the hops are surpassed by the roastiness.
Aggressive, good.

A bit toasty in this crackery, sweetish golden ale. Pretty standard with nothing to offer...no kiwi hop character, which is disappointing, as that is what this beer needs.
