Can from Tavour. Pours clear dark amber with a very large foamy beige/tan head. Aroma seems toffee with light pale stone fruit notes. Approaching full bodied. Flavor is very toffee. So toffee that the fruit is hard to parse; but it is there. Not dry, but not quite sticky. There's bitterness from something. Basically this is a malt monster that isn't really obnoxiously so. For unexplainable reasons I'm really liking this.

Taster at the Colorado Springs Wine Festival. Pours a hazy, pale, yellow color, with a bubbly, white head. The nose is grapefruit, apricot, vanilla, lime zest, and dust. Dry and musty, and a solid, mellow bitterness. Light, crisp, and easy.

On tap at The Jeffrey in NYC. Opaque dark brown pour. Creamy tan ring. Tart, dark dried fruit aroma. Flavor is sour fruit, soy sauce, prune, dark currants and lemon pith. Complex and challenging. Little hints of oak and whiskey. Outstanding.

Pint can - turbid amber pour with a ton of floating particles - moderate off-white lace - low carbonation, soft texture - moderately to highly alcoholic, enough to suppress a lot of the potential malt complexities that wind up subdued and muddled (treacle, dark fruit, bread) - alcohol calms down in the finish, but there is mostly just a sugary sweetness on the tail end, anyway - muddy and disappointing.
