Half pour at OCC Brewing. Pours a hazy, reddish-orange color, with no head. The nose is raspberry, lovely chile on the nose, lime, celery, and vanilla. Sweet and fruity, with a light acidity and a good, mellow heat. Delicious!

On tap at Brass. Pours a bright, cloudy, orange color, with a medium, white head. The nose is orange juice, peach, gin, butterscotch, and juniper. Sweet and sugary, with a sharp, abrasive bitterness. Hot and aggressive. This is a quality big IPA.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a murky, dull orange color, with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The nose is pine sap, honey, light perfume, toast, and cut grass. A bit drying, with a sharp, assertive bitterness. Medium body, with a crisp, grainy palate. This is a quality ESB, if a little hoppy.

On tap at the brewery. Pours black, with a small, fine, tan head. The nose is coffee, vanilla, sherry, chicory, and grains. Sweet and dusty, with an acrid, off bitterness. Heavy body, syrupy, and thick. Malty and dusty, with an unpleasant finish. This is a fair stout with good roasted aromatics, but the finish is quite off.

Draft at the brewery. Pitch black color with a light tan head and epic retention. Very nitro-like pour. Good lacing. Light chocolate aroma. Has a dry roasted dark lager flavor without any chocolate that I smelled. Dry finish. Pretty good. Nothing new. Kinda middle of the road.

Draft at the brewery. Clear amber color with a small khaki head. Very good lacing. Decent caramel malt flavor without the typical harsh amber finish. More mellow than most ambers.

Draft at the brewery. Clear pale yellow color with virtually no head. Tastes as clean and light and easy drinking as it looks. Nothing special, just enjoyable beer.
