Hazy copper-gold pour. The aroma is mostly resinous hops. The flavor has moderate to strong hops bitterness with resin. The malt profile is kind of odd somehow and doesn't quite work for me, but overall it's fairly good.

Clear yellow-gold pour with a white head. It has a mild grainy malt aroma. The flavor is sweet and grainy with some quite mild hops bitterness in the finish. It's easy drinking and okay though not exactly my thing, which is okay. I'm not really the target market as they're selling it has sort of an introductory craft brew. It's pretty decent anyway.

From a 12 oz. bottle. Pours black with a scant off white head. Aromas are of coffee and licorice. Flavors are sweet milk chocolate. Mouthfeel was pretty flat with little effervescence. Pretty underwhelming.

Bottle: Nearly black, with a thin tan head. Chocolate, vanilla aroma. Creamy oatmeal, chocolate malt, vanilla flavour.... The cinnamon takes a moment to present itself, initially pretty mild but increases as you drink.... Pretty good.
