Can from the packie. Pours a lightly hazy dark lemon yellow with a fluffy white head that slowly recedes. Earthy orange and tropical notes with a solid shot of resinous pine. Light biscuit maltiness. Very nice brew.

Can from the Packie shared with Paul Solid black in color with a thin tan head that dissipates quickly. Big roasty milk chocolate and faint licorice. Light cherry and almonds with just enough earthy hop to counter. Sweet sticky sipper, glad I was sharing.

Can (10/14/20) pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque, milky dark yellow with tons of sparkle at the edges of the glass, a few white chunks in suspension, finger-width white foamy head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong stone fruit over citrus, hint of herb. Taste is strong mix of equal parts citrus, pineapple and stone fruits. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thick, silky texture, soft carbonation, mild alcohol warmth and finish as taste with dry, light bitterness. Overall, very good representative of the style all around. Nice!

Can (10/7/20) pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque dark yellow/light brown with unfortunate trub/yeast chunks falling to the bottom of the glass, decent sparkle at the edges of the glass, 3-finger width white foamy head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is dank pine and citrus. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation with late lively kick and finish as taste. Overall, decent strength of aroma and flavor but not terribly complex. Presence of trub is surprising for this brewer. Not their best.

Can (9/23/20) pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque dark yellow-light brown with no sparkle, finger-width off-white foamy head with good retention and light soapy lacing. Aroma is non-specific citrus/berry/bubblegum fruits. Taste is nondescript sweet --maybe berry, grape, a little citrus, candy--and hint of late herb. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with soft, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, very nondescript and likely dominated by Enigma as hard to find typical Citra and Rakau. Not gonna lie--a bit disappointing given my expectations of the brewer and these hops. A little thin.

Can (10/7/20) pour from a trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque black (dark brown at the bottom of the glass) with a few light floaties, light sparkle, finger-width foamy khaki head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong, bittersweet coffee, dark chocolate (chocolate-covered espresso bean), vanilla. Taste follows aroma with addition of creamy lactose. Mouthfeel is medium-to-full bodied with thick, silky texture, soft carbonation and more sweet than bitter finish. Overall, my first stout from Spyglass. They don't just make good IPA's...

Not the twist of fate I'm used to! Haha. But it's a pretty solid classic saison. Tons of the coriander notes you come to expect. Great head retention.

16 oz. can shared by Tfontana, socially distanced 16 feet apart on my back porch. Aroma shows citrus and a cream like hint with some grass. Flavor is a balance of grass, mango-ish, and orange flavor. Texture is juicy with no bitterness. No alcohol can be found. This is really nice.

Can (9/30/20) pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque yellow-orange (orange juice) with no sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with good retention and tons of soapy lacing. Aroma is citrus--orange-dominant--with cream and milder vegetal/herb. Taste is citrus, vegetal/herb, subtle tropical fruits. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste without any bitterness and no hint of alcohol. Overall, really nice with all facets.
