Draft pour at the Collective Hop Mob. Pours a dark copper color with a foam head and lacing. Very mild aroma of fruit. Flavor is straw like, grassy hops, and a sturdy fruit background. Fun beer here.

Draft - Wood and caramel with. Touch of ketchup. Cloudy brown with a small white head. Sweet and light caramel, ketchup and some bitterness.

Draft - Light grains, wood and cocoa. Cloudy brown with a rich white head. Barrel notes, Woody and caramel. Sweet Woody finish.

On tap at WA Winter Beer Festival 2015, pours an opaque dark amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of barrels - very boozy and woody. Flavour is similar, with booze and wood dominating. Not getting any residual spices. All wood and booze. Decent.

On tap at WA Winter Beer Festival 2015, pours a hazy dark amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma out brings out bready malt - but it's surprisingly subtle for something so high ABV. Flavour is similar but more prominent, with lots of bready malts, toasted caramel and a little alcohol. Not much complexity - but it's easy enough to sip. Okay.

Draught at Coastal Kitchen, 11/8/15.
Another beer from this place where the waitstaff was very unsure of the details. Definitely seemed that they were confident it was Diamond Knot, and they said it was a porter, but all of the reviews (and commercial deScription) of Possession Porter reference it being dark ebony which this most definitely was not.
Looking very PNW Red ale-like. It does have more darker hues than a typical red ale, but is very far from the ebony of any porter I’ve ever seen. Clarity is high with a dark beige head that shows moderate retention.
Spicy hoppiness seems to signify that of a winter red ale, so I guess that works here? Honestly, I have no idea what the beer was, but I’ve got to imagine they at least got the brewer right. Light chocolate, dry coffee suggestions and a little bit of caramel.
Sticky caramel, soft chocolate suggestions, spicy hops and a moderate carbonation. Kind of half way between a red ale and a porter and quite drinkable. Good mouthfeel and also attenuation. Gains a bit more bitterness with a little bit of raisin and plum, with breathing/warming. No flaws or alcohol.

Bottle, pours a cloudy orange amber with a small white head. Nose brings out bready malts, resinous hops and toasted nuts. Flavour isn't as nice, with bready malt, some caramel malt, and some resin. Dry and simple, but pretty well-balanced. It's okay.

500mL bottle. Amber slick looking. This I another brewery stuck in the past. Tastes like what big beers were a decade ago, a mishmash of hops and caramel malts. Fortunately, not bitter at least.

Draft pour pint at Frankies pizza. Pours an oily golden color with a patchy head and lace. This comes off as an Oktoberfest beer, rather than an amber. Smooth, slightly rich flavor, and quite refreshing. Light, but quite drinkable. Good beer.

12oz can poured into keg shaped glass. Canned on 7/22, consumed on 8/29. Pour is dark honey, clear. Aroma is surprisingly not as hoppy as I would have predicted and not as hoppy as the previous few IPAs. The aroma has a strong malt character with hops (as opposed to the other way around). Some liquid malt and some woodsy malts with nondescript mildly bitter hops. Flavor lowers the malt presence and amps the hop presence. Bitterness is mild-moderate, lightly cookie crust malts, and again sharp and clean hops but not a particular description I can give (maybe grapefruit, not really cedar). Lingering light hop bitterness.
