16oz can. Rather awesome oak forward beer. Oak taste is big, coupled with the excellent body and delicate subtle perfection of their original lager. World Class stuff, quite delicious.

Draft pour at Goldfinger. Vienna Amber color, nice creamy foam which hangs along the side of the glass. Malt and cream ale nose.
I'm tasting slight caramel toast, and yes, a bit of spice and herb, like from tree bark. Slight impressions of cinnamon and nutmeg. Also picking up some Belgian automatic in the malt. Some pepper from Noble hops keeps the sweetness at bay. A note of light coffee as I go further down the glass.

Brown dark beer color, under a sudsy brief head. Cosy roast and grainy nose. Taste starts reminiscent of old-style dark beers. But goes Deeper into malt with a bit of molasses roast. Lingering German hop aftertaste.

Slightly hazy gold color, a brief white head. Smell has some yeast to it, and a bit of cantaloupe. Taste also has some of that yeast bite, and then a peppery Noble hop twinge and a side of citrus.

On tap at Blind Tiger, pours a clear pale blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out herbaceous notes, grassy hops, and straw. Flavour is crisp, with herbaceous notes, sweet biscuity malt, and straw. Herbaceous and biscuity finish. Decent.
