Bottle. Deep dark brown color, almost opague. Roast and cream in the aroma. Chocolate. Roastbitter creamy flavor with ash and chocolate. Full bodied. Easy going yet firm and delicious imperial stout. Maybe a bit simplistic, but well balanced.

Draft: Poured a hazy bright yellow color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy undertones notes with faint residual sugar notes is enjoyable. Taste is also a great mix of citrusy undertones with some faint residual sugar notes and light tropical notes are also perceptible. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable IPA with good drinkability.

Draft: Poured a blonde color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with some light cereal notes also perceptible. Taste is a mix of mild citrusy hops, light cereal notes with some light residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Nothing earth shattering here but refreshing and well brewed beer nonetheless.
