Sampled from the tap at The Old Fashioned. Pours a clear amber with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of tropical fruit with some bitter citrus with a sweet grain backbone. Flavor combines bitter citrus and light fruit with a supporting sweet grain note.

Many thanks to Chris for this beer! Nice fresh Belgian Wit nose with fresh hops. The beer starts fresh but not too deep. Belgian Wit with nice smooth floralness. Fresh, smooth. Not too deep but nice. Fresh floral hops in the aftertaste with nice typical Belgian Wit aroma of yeast, coriander and citrus. Nice.

On tap. Pour is an amber/orange in color. Thick, dense white head leaves substantial lacing. Aromas and taste of dank piney hops and citrus mostly. A tad sweet with the caramel malt. Medium bodied with a nice bitterness. Decent.

Location: Bottle shared at Max and Andy's Tasting, 2/28/15
Aroma: The aroma is malty, some light citrus hops, toast notes as well
Appearance: This one pours a darker orange color, with a beige head
Flavor: Clean and malty flavor profile, with some mild hops, similar to the nose
Palate: The body is medium, with a decent enough mouthfeel overall
Overall Impression: Found this one to be just okay. I don't have a ton to add beyond that. It's drinkable. A little surprised to see it so high in the style.

12oz bottle. Unfiltered orange-tan body, Fluffy, glass lacing off-white head. Nice citrus juiciness, mild pink grapefruit tones, not much lingering bitterness, more juicy. Pretty easy drinking for the ABV. Has some classical thick malt tones and depth, not a straight up golden ale backdrop. Tasty, enjoyable offering.

Tap at Brickhouse. Filtered orange-tan, very classical appearance. Vibrant tropical nuances,but a little hollow. Session ale I suppose. The nice hop depth really makes it work. Not bad, but comes off a pinch big for the style. Pretty much a good Pale Ale.

Bottle. Black coffee, licorice, wood ash, and chocolate malt aroma. Dark brown with moderate tan head. Sweet light licorice, coffee, dark chocolate malt, and moderately bitter dry hay flavor. Decent body. Very nice.

12oz bottle. Unfiltered burgundy brown body. Thinnish beige head fades out, lacing the glass. Could be a slightly dialed down version of the Ale Asylum Limited #1 I suppose. Big, rich, thick malt tones. Not much India, but enough to give it some balance, a modern day specialty malt overloaded Alt if you will. Quality offering.
