Bottle (9/20/25) from Eddy's Beverage Center, Saratoga Springs. Clear, dark brown with garnet hues, light sparkle, ephemeral head with no lacing. Aroma is roasted malt with toffee, molasses. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Decent, non-adjuncted porter.

Draft pours hazy dark gold with thin foam lace. Crisp mouthfeel with moderate carbonation, bright citrus flavors and bitter orange rind finish. Very nice!
Tasted at National Mechanics Bar And Restaurant, Philadelphia.

Aromas are a blend of citrus, malt, stone fruit and resin. Flavors are similar to nose and just okay. Nothing is especially fresh or well blended/balanced. Drinkable but nothing more.

A lovely red/gold body with a healthy, well laced off-white head. A soft nose features fresh grapefruit and lemon with caramel malt. This beer has a really nice blend of fresh fruity hops including grapefruit, lime, kiwi, melon and orange. A mild soapiness is appealing. Pepper and light caramel malt round out the taste profile. The body is slick and slight above average in density. Carbonation is light but appropriate. The finish is fruity with a controlled sweetness
