On tap at Great Divide Airport Bar, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma has quite an English malt character and toasted caramel. Flavour definitely reveals a more English malt character, with toasted bread, a hint of caramel, and almost no hops. Clean and drinkable. Solid.

Reviewed from notes.
Bottle to tulip.
Appearance: dark brown color with a one finger of eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave just a little bit of lace
Aroma: vinous sour to tart tones, subtle oak, grassy hops, light berries, and sour cherries with a caramel malt backbone
Flavor: sour to tart up front with a gentle malty sweetness underneath; finishes dry, vinous and cherry-like
Texture: medium bodied, good sipper; some smoothness but also plenty of sour to tart aggression as expected
Overall: pretty good sour ale worthy of coming back to.

On tap at Great Divide Airport Bar, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is laid-back, with straw, biscuity malt, maybe a hint of floral character. Flavour is clean, with sweet cereal malt, straw, and biscuity notes. Clean, light, easily drinkable, but not interesting.

On tap at Great Divide - DEN. Pours black with a tan head. Tons of boozy whiskey barrels, some smoke, and deep roasted malts on the nose. Flavour has intense whiskey character well-integrated with a strong malt base; deep roast, charcoal, burnt sugars. Sublime.
