On tap at Parallel 49, pours a dark mahogany with a small off-white head. Aroma has some English bready malt and a hint of dry caramel in back. Flavour is on par, with bready malt, some dry English malt, and a hint of dry caramel. Dry, clean, drinkable. Good for a boring style.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear mahogany with a small off-white head. Aroma has subtle blackberries upfront, with moderate sweetness, not much depth. Flavour is medium-sweet, with a nice apple acidity and blackberry fruitiness. Reasonably constructed, nice blackberry infusion and ideal acidity. Not complex but drinkable.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a weird stale character, not much else. Flavour is much the same, with a strange, stale, weird fungal character that predominates. Not exactly offensive but it’s barely drinkable.

On nitro tap at Parallel 49, pours a deep dark brown / near-black with a medium, creamy beige head. Aroma has soft roasted malt, some earthiness, and a touch of dry coffee grounds. Flavour is creamy and smooth, with soft toasted malt and a hint of coffee. Clean and smooth but not interesting.
