Pint can. Golden yellow color with minimal haze, topped with a large white head. Nose is a little odd; citrus and seemingly vegetal. Same translates to the taste, very lightly sweet followed by an earthy and herbal bitterness.

On tap @Yard House Vegas. Short pour. Clear, copper, frothy. Soft dank, but a sweet nose. Taste is syrupy, rindy, resinous, dry crust, mellow stone fruit, sharp but not too intense. Feel is too slick, abv is obvious. Not a fan of the total package.

Peanut butter and roast. A little caramel. Black pour with good mocha head. Some sugarcane. Bitter finish with some caramel and a little sugar water in the finish. Not super strong on cohesiveness. Can.

35,5 cl can @ home, no BBE info. Rated on 12.04.2022. Thanks Jan & Timo! Aroma has - surprisingly - strong peanut butter tones and quite nothing else. Flavour has peanut butter, mild chocolatey tones. Some licorice in the finish. Could not locate the vanilla here. A bit one-dimensional with all the peanut butter but good still.

Can from Corti Bros. Pours clear dark brown in a Guinness style pour of a tan creamy head. Aroma of raspberry followed by extremely dark chocolate. Med plus body. Flavor rather matches the aroma, and it gets rather earthy in the finish. Not wholly dry; raspberry bitter. Nice.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours hazy orangey gold with a moderate creamy white head. Aroma of melon, citrus, passion fruit and buckwheat (like pancakes). Med body or so. Flavor is juicy, not sticky sweet, and lightly bitter. Flavor matches aroma, but substitute pineapple for passion fruit. Nice flavor.

On tap at Lead Dog - Reno, pours black with a small light brown head. Aroma brings out deep roasted malt, booze and some perfumey notes. Flavour is boozy and perfumey, with a chaotic alcohol presence, and medium roasted malt. All over the place and lacking cohesion. Not so good.

On tap at Lead Dog - Reno, pours black with a small light brown head. Aroma reveals a pleasant mix of raspberries and cocoa, with moderate roast as a base. Flavour is much the same, with raspberries, dark cocoa and toasted malt. Really nice interplay between raspberries and cocoa. Works well. Solid.
