Keg at Craftsman. It pours golden - orange with a small fizzy white head. The aroma is pretty rich, big puff of smoke upfront, medicinal, TCP, supported by something really fruity, apricot, peach, persimmon, brioche, floury bread and some greenness. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, smokey, medicinal, pithy, zesty, orange marmalade sandwiches on white bread, smoked peach, touch umami, spice, hay, straw, grass, TCP, peat real and some tannin with a drying finish. Average body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Otherworld proving they don't fit in the standard new brewery mold. Interesting, good depth and somehow very drinkable.

Can from Appellation Wines. Pours like multi fruit juice, 2nd of the night to look like this, no head. Aromas of mango, light coconut. It's basically an alcopop. I hope this juice trend comes to an end soon. Juicy fruit finish. You know, for kids?
