Tap at Drunk Uncle. Truly is a thick, rich beer. Big chocolate, but just short of syrupy. Massive body, too bad they didn't give it the hop balance. Above average.

12oz can. Pretty straightforward Pickle beer. Really has the pickle flavor. Medium bodied, very drinkable. I enjoy cucumber beer for the most part and this is tolerable. OK for what it is. Great to throw in a tasting or as a gab gift...not much else.

On tap at Pilot Project, pours a clear pale yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle grapefruit upfront, with fermented out agave, salt and lacto. Flavour has washed out earthy smoke, some grapefruit peel, salt, and lacto. A bit murky and muffled but pleasant enough — slightly better than the Copitas.

Tap at DU. Rather delicious fruit combo, even if extract or syrup or whatever it is. Very juicy, pleasant sour tone steady throughout. Good for what it is.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear deep brown with a light brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has earthy dark grains with a touch of toffee and roast supporting. Flavor is similar with a combination of roast, dark grains and light sweetness.
