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.

(Can) Black colour with creamy, pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with coffee, dark chocolate, maple syrup, caramel, liquorice, a touch of treacle and pecan nuts. Malty, roasted, vinous taste with notes of chocolate truffles, espresso, caramel, liquorice, maple syrup, pecan nuts, a touch of cinnamon and a balanced cacao bitterness in the finish. Full body, quite sweet. Rich, tasty and warming (on a midwinter's eve). Very nice.

Crystal clear yellow color, quick fading foam. Intense lemon aroma and sour, acidic, lemon juice flavor. Just a hint of sweetness underneath. Closer to juice than beer.
