Taster at Voodoo. Pours a clear, straw color, with a small, white head. The nose is caramel, coriander, heavy vanilla, and mild grass clippings. Sweet and malty, with a faint, resinous bitterness. Light, smooth, and a little grainy. Fun and simple.

12 oz. can. Pours a clear, dark, ruby color, with a fairly big, foamy, beige head. The nose is pumpernickel, walnut, spruce, and light cumin. Dry and malty, with a sharp, resinous bitterness. Assertive and sticky. Fair.

16 oz. can. Pours a clear, mohagany color, with a medium, frothy, tan head. The aroma is vanilla, cloves, pine sap, butter toffee, black pepper, and some rotten apple. Sweet and boozy, with a heavy, resinous bitterness. Heavy body, with a sticky, biting palate. This is an aggressive and well made barley wine.

Looks like canned November 27th 2020. Could be December.
Good looking straw gold, a finger of foam, no bubbles that I can see.
The smell has a strong noble hops bitterness, some grain, but the somewhat spicy hops rule. Lovely.
The delicious hoppiness does verify my notes in the smell. Very light grain character with some toasted malt and I have a very enjoyable American Lager.
Medium body with a long lasting smack of hop goodness in the finish.
Got another can. :)

Canned November 5th 2020.
It pours a clear pale gold with 2 fingers of foam initially. It settles down to some foam around the glass and a few islands.
It smells of malt, not really sweet malt, hints of vanilla, very low bitterness if any.
The taste has mild vanilla, an almost honey like light sweetness, finishes on the bland side.
The mouthfeel is excellent.
Not a whole lot going on here but it is an easy drinker.

12 oz. can purchased at Total Wine in Davidson, CO. Thanks G-unit! Pours a hazy yellow-gold color with a huge white head and annoyingly good retention. Good lacing. Smells like dough. Tastes like a lager with extra yeast. Slightly sour grain finish. Medium body, soft texture. Okay. Forgettable.

12 oz. can purchased at Total Wine in Davidson, CO. Thanks G-unit! Pours a crystal clear light gold color with a large white head and very good retention. Decent lacing. Lots of streaming bubbles. Light vanilla aroma. Slightly soapy cream ale graininess with a smooth and creamy vanilla finish. The vanilla saves the beer, making it one of the best cream ales I've had.

On tap at Trail's End. Pours black, with a big, frothy, tan head. The nose is black cherry, chocolate, mild coffee, hay, and caramel. Sweet and smooth, with only a touch of sour. Light to medium body, with a syrupy, slick, and velvety palate. This is a very interesting and delicious dark sour.
