On tap at Stormcloud. Pours black with an off-white head. Roasty cocoa coffee aroma. Flavor is quite roasty, toasty cooffee, with a little bit of alcohol. That said, it doesn’t really convince me as a stylized malt liquor.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a deep brown with an off-white head. Cocoa roasty aroma. Flavor has the cocoa roastiness, chilis, and a cinnamon curry vibe. Quite a good stout with some nice flavors mixed in.

On tap at Stormcloud. Clear golden pour with a white head. Citrus aroma. Flavor hits all the citrus notes: lime, lemon, grapefruit, and orange, probably in that order. Pale malt toward the end. A pretty successful fruit beer.

On tap at Stormcloud. Hazy gold pour with a white head. Aroma is somehow minty along with the citrus. Flavor has a sweet tequila orange citrus blend, again it has an almost minty quality, the beer really works well with the tequila addition.

6.8/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
On tap at Stormcloud. Cloudy gold pour with a white head. Ripe peach aroma, not my favorite. On taste, it’s a fairly unified flavor of peach with citrus hops, touches of yeast and pale malt. Flavor works out pretty well, but I just have a problem with the aroma.

tap (last fall) - Pours amber-orange with an off-white head. It smells of Belgian yeast and spices. The flavor is sweet and spicy with Belgian yeast and caramel. Medium bodied with lively carbonation, it’s a pretty good beer. Currently listed as 6% abv on the brewery’s website.

On tap at Stormcloud. Pours amber with a white head. Aroma is yeasty with a tangy blueberry note. Flavor is yeasty, pale malt, slight tea, with blueberry that isn’t overpowering but adds a nice twist to the overall flavor.

8.2/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 10 Overall 8
On tap at Stormcloud. Deep brown pour with a light tan head. Light sweet roasty malt aroma. Flavor is light, smooth roasty coffee and cocoa, some nice yeast twang, red grape. Perfect body for what it is: this is pretty much exactly what I want when I’m looking for something very slightly lighter than a stout.
