On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear golden amber. Malty aroma of light sweet honey. Flavor has toasty malt (honey, caramel), with a light grassy/floral hop bitterness. I liked this a bit more than expected. Also tried a sip of the cask version, but it seemed to be served very cold and wasn't nearly as good.

Can courtesy of a friend. Thanks Jon! Pours a deep brown to black with full 2-3 fingers of beige head that lingers. Roasted malt with notes of toasted nuts, coffee and baker's chocolate. Palate is similar, with a dry, roasty finish. Quite balanced for all the roast though.

Sample at Cultivate Coffee & Taphouse. Brown-black pour with a medium beige head that recedes gradually to a film. Patches of lace. Aroma of roast malt, rye and chocolate. Medium body with flavors of charred malt, spicy rye, dark chocolate and coffee. The finish is roasty with a rye malt and chocolate aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear gold with a quickly dissipating head. Bready malt aromas with some light dried honey notes. Crisp and clean on the palate. Easy drinking with some mineral and light peppery notes on the finish. Really, clean and nice, refreshing beer.

16 ounce prowler into lager glass, filled on 12/1/2019. Pours fairly crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a small dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big red grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/earthy hops and moderate pale malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big red grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with no yeasty notes. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and sticky/resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.2%%. Overall this is an awesome IPL. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and fairly crisp/clean/refreshing to drink with the moderately bitter/resinous/drying finish; not overly aggressive. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Feels like Centennial, Columbus. Very vibrant, dank, earthy, and fairly juicy hops; with a great clean pale malt backbone. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp resin dryness. A really enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example as expected of the brewery. Did not get much cedar.
gave a cheers!
