Una pinta at Beer Station pours a translucent deep brown with some sudsy, lacing, off white head. Nose has some stout notes, creamy oats, a little creamy grits too, malt, toast, some roast, hints of licorice. Flavor is quite stout like, creamy, nutty, malty, bread crust, some chocolate, a little odd raisin notes. You’d expect this fro. An upstart in the US. Creamy, dry finish. Solid.

"Una pinta" at Beer Station pours a hazy dark orange with some creamy lacing white head. Nose has some very gristy notes, crackery, a little butter, some orange, some metal. Flavor follows, lots of cracker, lots of biscuit, some butter and butterscotch but not killer, orange, metal. Crisp, dry finish. This could be a whole lot worse.

Wow... really surprised to see the low rates became I am not nearly as offended by this as others have been. "Pinta" at Beer Station pours a hazy gold with some lacing white head. Nose is mild but true to style, some wet grist, a little dough, mild straw, a little dryer sheet. Flavor follows, soggy bread, mild lemon, a little metal, some honey sweetness. I am really going to pull the average up because I thought this was decent. Lightly watery finish.
