Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange cloudiness, quickly dissipating semi-foamy head, barely any lace
Aroma: peaches, apricots and plums intertwining to fulfill sour, tart and sweet contours, subtle lemon to grassy tones underneath
Flavor: sour to tart to sweet tones embracing the prior mentioned stone fruits, subtle aftertaste of the peaches and apricots
Texture: light to medium bodied, mostly a sipper, lean stone fruity finish
Overall: a pleasure to have and definitely would return to.

Can to becher pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown color with a finger's worth of tan foamy head, the lace moderately sticks to the glass but slides a bit here and there
Aroma: the oatmeal is there, the dark fruity raisin-like smells accomodate nicely, and the normal brown ale qualities ride in underneath for a very nice blend
Flavor: the cookie dough oatmeal portions and the dark fruity qualities mesh sweetly and doughy, barely aftertaste but seemed kinda sweet
Texture: almost medium bodied, just a wee bit under with some sly sessionability about it, sweet cookie doughy finish
Overall: nicely done pastry brown ale. Made for a nice dessert beer and didn't let me feel like I needed someone to roll me into bed

Draft at the brewery. Pours a dark, orange color, with a big, foamy, bubbly, beige head. The nose is candied orange, juniper berries, butterscotch, cloves, and hay. Sweet and malty, with a mellow, musty bitterness. Medium body, sticky, and astringent. Aggressive and quality.

Taster at the brewery. Pours an unclear, dark, brown color, with a big, foamy, dense, tan head. The aroma is raspberry jam, milk chocolate, cinnamon, caramel, and light coffee. Sweet and sugary, with an odd, musty tartness. Medium body, chewy, and grainy. Fun and interesting, and remarkably focused.
