Sampled on draft at the brewpub. Pours a clear copper color with a medium creamy white head. Average head retention and lacing. Faint but decently balanced aroma of citrus and leafy hops and caramel. Taste is nutty with caramel, leafy and metallic hop notes. Bitter finish. Medium bodied. Just a bit muddled and off balance.

Sampled on draft at the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy pale orange tinted yellow color with a large head. Decent head retention and lacing. Very estery aroma with notes of banana and spice that combine into something reminiscent of perfume and nail polish. Weird. The taste is very similar... perfume, banana, clove. Thin bodied and watery.

Sampled on draft at the brewpub. Pours a clear brownish red color with a large head. Fair head retention and lacing. Lots of butter in the aroma along with faint tart fruits, light toast and caramel. Taste is nutty with faint grain and tart fruit notes. Thin bodied, slightly watery. Seems like this could be a bit infected. Either way, itβs just not a very good beer.

Growler from the brewery. These guys were absolutely freaking clueless about filling a growler so weβll see how this goies. Pours a very clear copper color with a medium head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma is sweet caramel malts with muted citrus hops. Taste is caramel, toffee and faint leafy hops. Light bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied. A little all over the place but decent.
