12 oz. can dated 9/17/20. Golden American pale ale color, lots of floaty bits under a big frothy head. Smell is the usual tiny and resony hops, with a note of citrus juice and some fresh–cut grass. The taste is an expected hop bomb, but I get a note of cream ale to it, and there is still a nice side of toasty malts. Plenty of hops remain at the front, as advertised.

Gin saisons are a thing to be reckoned with. I reckon. #saisonmonday

This is OK. Purchased at my local grocery store (Andy's Fruit Ranch), enjoyed at home during the pandemic. Goes down decently and slightly sweet. Sessionable, some cloves in the mix, overall not bad.

2018 bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo. Thanks Aaron! Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of brown foam that lingers. Lovely deep cacao nib aromas with vanilla, oak and bourbon. Sweet bourbon, molasses, caramel and chocolate on the palate. Good body...some coffee and cacao nib husks. Really enjoyable.
