From a 12 oz can. Pours a murky brown with an explosive tan head. Aromas are woody with some coffee. Flavors are bitter roast.

Seven roasted grains? I was expecting much more. I am looking for a redeeming quality over the watery texture. I am still looking.

Draft/Fest. A- Salty, tart, wheat, watermelon, candy. A- Gold color, clear liquid, white head. T- Salty, tart, watermelon jolly ranchers. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- No way is the watermelon in this variation real. It has to be artificial as it tasted like a super sweet jolly rancher candy. That said, it was really tasty and refreshing. Loved it but not like any other watermelon brews I've had. Better than the base beer for sure.

Draft, 4 ounce sample glass Growler USA, Omaha. Mildly hazy orange color, lasting head retention. Aroma is toffee, yeast and subtle hop. This is a nice interpretation of a English style and much better than I was expecting. It really was easy to drink. Although nothing I am going to remember.

Draft/Fest. A- Lavender, lemon balm, hand soap. A- Orange color, clear liquid, white head. T- Spices, lemon nettle, black peppers, lavender, cardamon, soapy. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, spiced finish. O- A bit soapy which I have found true among several of their beers. That said, I liked this a lot more than it probably deserves. Not really a true to style beer but it works in a weird way.

Draft. A- Cocoa, malty, slightly bland. A- Dark brown color, cloudy liquid, off white head. T- Cocoa powder, mild booze, malty, subtle sweetness. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, dry finish. O- Didnβt get much in terms of smoke, honey, or sweet whiskey as stated. It was different. The more I drank the more the flavor opened up. Started out quite bland and by the end it was a mixture of sweet boozy ovaltine powder. Interesting. Not a big fan but it wasnβt a total mess.

Draft. A- Pine, solvent, subtle spice, mild citrus. A- Copper color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Strong pine, spruce, cleaner, medium bitterness. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, sharp finish. O- This had a bite to it. Not necessarily a boozy alcohol bite but a bite from the hops. Tons of pine and herbal notes in here that ended sharp. Needs some more citrus notes to back up the piney notes. A decent IPA that with a little adjusting could be really tasty.
