Can. Near black with plenty of fizz. Roasty malts and chocolate upfront, followed by some liquorice and a decent , bitter, finish. Enjoyable.

Draft at Pizzeria Paradiso - Dupont. Poured a mostly clear golden color with a medium sized, creamy white head. Aroma was notes of light malts, light orange citrus fruits - some creamy grains remain. Flavor was mostly mandarin orange notes, light hops. I enjoyed it, girlfriend winced and called it "warm."

Draft at Pizzeria Paradiso. Poured a hazy golden color with a small white head. Aroma is tart lactic notes, some wheat, and a touch of sea breeze. Flavor was nice tart notes, salt ocean, with a light twist of lemon zest. Very enjoyable, tart but easy to drink. Girlfriend loved this one. I look forward to trying this one again.

Cask. Cloudy amber color, large fluffy tan head with good retention and solid lacing, nice to see on a cask with coffee in it. Aroma of... you guesed it, coffee! Taste is earthy coffee and caramel. It pretty much works.
