Bottle. Pours pale amber gold with small foamy white head. Grainy faint aroma. Light malty flavour with not much finish. Finish that is there is slightly malty. Maybe a starter beer for someone trying to get off the industrial liquids, but not much more.

Pours with a creamy, light brown head over a hazed mahogany hued body. Strong lacing. Aroma of alcohol burn, sweetness, brown sugar and cereal. Taste is brown sugar, but after the mid palate, pretty darn bitter. Some fruit, caramel and crappy whiskey as well. Syrupy mouthfeel, moderate carbonation. Low drinkability because of the high alcohol, and strongly, lingering, bitter aftertaste.

Bottle. Slightly hazy orange gold color with a decent off-white head. Aroma is citrus floral hop. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is roasted caramel in a light way with citrus and floral hop notes. Finishes somewhat astringent. Could be a rough ESB. It will definitely do.
