A black beer with a tan head. Aroma of coffee, roasted dark malt, vanilla. Taste of bourbon, sweet dark malt, coffee, boozy finish.

10 ounce at Aurora Arts - hazy medium gold - nose is lovely oak, light funk, mild lacto and acetobacter - flavor is drying acidity, but not overly sour or acidic - nice balance - bright lacto leads to light acetic acid in the finish - white grape, oak, white peach - light buggy funk - lingering oak and acid in the finish - quite nice.

Pint can picked up from the brewery today - I think I need to come to terms with the fact that this brewery doesn’t make good ipas that aren’t hazy - this is both too sweet and not bitter enough for the style - that hop character and bitterness really try to break through in the finish, but it is not enough.

Aromas are malt, wet grain, taffy and a hint of hops. Flavors are similar to nose, taffy comes out a bit more and is slightly more sweet than bitter with good carbonation. A decent, traditional helles but nothing special.

Draft at Trail's End. Pours a murky, yellow color, with a fair, foamy, white head. The aroma is grass clippings, lemongrass, straw, and rose. Drying, musty, with a fair, bracing bitterness. Medium body, with a sticky, zesty feel. Pretty solid.
