Bottle at CBJ tasting, thanks to Tips. Near clear dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Airy palate, decent fine carbonation. Very light for the style. Light tangy dark malts, a little creamy dark malt. Whiskey dark fruits, whisper of peat. Airy light finish. A bit airy and very slightly wishy washy.

Can. Pours opaque yellowish with foamy head. Nose is citrusy, tart, spicy. Taste is sour first, then come the citrusy notes and closes with a moderately spicy, somewhat tart finish. Light bodied with average carbonation, easy to drink. Pleasant and refreshing.
