On tap @... On tap. Russet brown, dark but clear, off-white head. Veggie sweet nose, soft earth. Roasty potato, sweet nuts, earthy lingering bitterness, a little chocolate, red ale wannabe. Crispy & irritating. Liked this.

Short sample pour. I was warned quite hard about how bad this was. Hazy brown ale. Smell is plastic, apple vinegar & teriyaki. Taste is earthy tart apple cider, menthol & odd plastic. You can see the problem here. Obvious infection, but it's been on tap for days apparently. This just framed my whole opinion of the brewery. Beyond terrible.

Half pint @Denton. Lacy, barely hazy amber pour. Creamy, bit of yogurt coated fruit on the nose. Served a little closer to cool than cold. Steel, white grape, menthol, candied pine, decent acidity, fuzzy finish. Muted. Okay.

Half pint @Denton. Clear, dark amber, very still. Minerally, brown bread, super light soy sauce. Toasty, slightly caramelized, minerally, calcium, tasty charred veg, very faint maple &/or smoke, soft acidity, just enough carbonation. Almost great. Surprised.
