On tap at Blue Tractor. Fiery orange body, medium creamy buff head. Sweet and bitter nose with potent citrus rind. Slick, oily body, resinous, with bitter rindy citrus, orange peel, and pine. Bitter, slippery finish. Pretty good, but the mouthfeel was a bit too greasy.

Growler from the brewpub. Pours black (a bit brown around the edges) with no head. Aroma is interesting with chocolate throughout but a light undertone of wheat. Flavor is full of dark chocolate but is amazingly light at the same time. Mouthfeel is just like a like a lighter version stout. It makes for a very unique and drinkable but chocolatey beer.

On tap at the brewpub. Poured a golden amber with a medium white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma had notes of citrus as well as a touch of dark malts and rye. Flavor begins with a bit of a citrus kick, but finished with rye and dark bread flavors.

On tap at the Brewpub. Poured a dark amber with a strong brown hue and a thin light brown head. Aroma had strong malt notes with the hops being more of an undertone with pine and citrus notes. Flavor was sweet from the malts giving the beer a caramel and sweet cereal flavor with just a slight undertone of citrus hops. Quite odd.
