Bottom of the can is stamped 03/16/2015.
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt brown color with a soft carbonation rising at a moderate pace. Light stringy lacing glazed the sides of the glass.
The smell had a decent blend of sweet to roasted nutty coffee and caramel malts.
The taste copied the smell gracefully and had a nice sweet blend of roasty coffee to nutty aftertaste leading into a semi - dry nutty finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium with a decent sessionability about it. This nicely carbonated brown ale left a lingering dryness rolling over my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good English Brown ale, everything is there going nicely.

In the can @ home, thanks to Lukaduke for sending. Pours a bit hazy, orange appearance with a lasting, cream colored head. Super potent nose - dank bud, pine, grapefruit, passion fruit, guava in the nose. Smells great. Medium full body. Creamy mouthfeel. Moderate plus bitterness with low bitterness. Piney, herbal and dank flavor. Some grass / herbal notes. Finishes with a fair amount of bitterness and some booze. Drinks pretty fucking good if you’re asking me. Just sayin.

This was poured into a tulip. Thanks Jonathan.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy orange color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute.
The smell had a resinous and piney oily bitter hoppiness.
The taste had an amplified sweet to bitter resinous oily hops. There’s a sligh bitter orange to grapefruit aftertaste with a sticky palatable finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with sipping to sessionable quality about it. A decent pounding on my tongue of harshness but nothing overbearing.
Overall, I say this was a very nice DIPA that I would have again.

Can thanks to Brian! Pours hazy orange, medium white head that dissipates fairly quickly but leaves nice lacing. Aroma is hella juicy, tropical, peach, melon, passionfruit. Flavor is light sweet and light bitter, juicy, resinous, tropical with just that touch of dankness that makes everything better. Medium body, silky mouthfeel. This is a winner.

750 ml bottle, thick black liquid with a big piney earthy. Mouthfeel with a chewy yeast but thinner for an imperial stout. The over all impression is that of a black IPA, mild chocolate with a lingering citrus/ spicy finish. Tasty but an imperial stout??

Pitch black, some ruby edges, 1 finger coffee head. Aroma is a light tropical bitterness, mango, persimmon and a chalky light roasted aroma. Interesting. Lots of tropical fruits in this one. Grapefruit, tangerine, it’s overpowering the roasted dark chocolate tastes. Really clean finish and the citrus lingers on forever.

16 oz can. Carbonation blows up and dies real fast, leaving nothing on the mostly clear yellow liquid. Aroma is tropical fruit, pine over top a light grain. The body is crisp with lasting bitterness in the form of light citrus and pine. The blend of hop flavors is down right nice, very flavorful. Happy to have tried this.
