Tasting at Matt’s
Black color, small head. The aroma presents both the roasted malt and the hops. The mouthfeel is full, not too dry, not too sweet; powerful roasted malt and hop presence, resiny.
A good back bomb.

Hazy light amber color. The aroma is more fruity than spicy, probably after the usage of modern hops. Smooth and dry mouthfeel; the flavor is moderately spicy, the malt is nice, and it has a good bitterness level. Maybe a bit metallic in the final.
Very pleasant.

Hazy amber color, small head. Very bad aroma, vegetable soup, blood, metal. Good body strength; simple malt flavor with some vegetable. Ordinary bitterness.
Clumsy beer, bad bottle.

Bottle, Legacy. Near black, with a thick head. Aroma has mint, orange, toasty chocolatey malts, woody hop. Rich woody hop character, a touch of phenols, and lots of chocolate late. Good balance. Full body. A fairly hoppy example.

22 oz. bottle, pours black with a medium beige head. Nose brings out lots of roasted malt and piney hops. Flavour is very balanced, with loads of roasted malt and piney hops in excellent balance. Dry, roasty and robust. A very nice black IPA.

650mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out vegetal notes, floral notes, and Belgian yeast. Flavour is muddy as fuck, with cardboard, yeast soup, and vegetal notes. This is really quite bad, with dry dusty cardboard notes dominating. Needs a lot of improvement.

Bottle - Vegative herbal notes. Cleanish gold with a decent white head. Meaty and vegative. Just not right.

Draft - Dark roast and some sweet pine notes. Deep jet brown with a decent light brown head. Lots of roast up front and bitter pine hops. Easy drinking and nice finish considering the big flavors. A great start to this new brewery.
