Draft half pint pour at the brewery. From notes 8/22/15. Pours a maple brown color with a swirling tan head. Nice roasted character throughout. Nice malt forward flavor, thick body, late dry nutty finish. Pretty good overall.

Draft half pint pour at the brewery. From notes, 8/22/15. Pours a bright orange color with a thin fizz head. Big fresh hops aroma. Sweet orange mixed with a bitter hop finish. Just your standard, tasty IPA here. Love the lingering hop palate. Good stuff.

9oz glass at brewery. Completely thick dark golden color, no clarity at all. Aroma is nondistinct hop, I swear a little cucumber, so weird. Flavor is similar the particular hops don’t stand out. The wheat provides a thick body and again a novel cool green light aspect.

On Tap at the Everett Craft Beer fest Big roasty smooth flavors. Also, very clean and well attenuated and not heavy or overly thick. Very good all around big stout. Nice job

On Tap at the Everett Craft Beer fest Well balanced is right. Decent fresh hop flavors and fair bitterness. Moderate body. Very drinkable.
