Bright. Dark amber. Smells super chewy...sticky stuff. Big and thick, really sweet. Not super clean, but it's also bitter, alcoholic. Not much balance - you want to have some sort of happy character, and I'm not getting that here.

500mL can, pours a clear dark amber with a small beige head. Nose is full of cloying bubblegum-like sweetness, candied sugar, and subdued resinous hops -- smells like it's going to be cloyingly candy-like. Flavour is even worse, with lots of bubblegum-like sweetness, herbal hops, candy, and some resins. Cloyingly sweet, full of bubblegum and cloyingly sweet candy, and some herbal off-notes. This is terrible.

Tasting at Salesforce, can
Black colour. Strong roast character, quite dry for the style, and some alcohol, this is rather unbalanced.

Jet brown with a decent brown head. Roasty and toasty. Roast and toast with a big bitterness. Nice.

Dark brown. On the nose it's a bit thin and peanutty. On the palate there's some sweet chocolate. Might have a touch of tartness, so the balance isn't all that great for me, but it's not bad.

500mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out medium roast, wood, and a hint of wood. Flavour is fairly roasty, with lots of roasted malt, a little wood, and quite intense earthy hops. Hoppy and roasty in good balance. Quite ordinary, but it works and is well-constructed.

Tap at Cal Kitchen. Rich, deep cloudy orange with a fine head. Bright, crisp NE nose: orange juice, tropical fruit, wheat biscuits. Juicy, dank, and a bit rough. Wheaty, slightly rough finish but still decent. Great nose.

Feels a bit thin. New England with a big hint of water, bit harsh bitterness too. Very not sure...
