12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a dark amber with a half finger of white head. Pretty subtle aroma. A little caramel malt with some skunk and metal shavings. Taste is about the same. Caramel and skunk. Medium bodied with a creamy texture. Lively carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, it’s ok. Nothing I would buy again though.

Location: Draft at Colicchio & Sons Tap Room, 1/17/12
Aroma: It has a dry, somewhat wine-like, slightly sour nose, with a little wood and dark fruit
Appearance: This one poured a brown color with a small, lasting beige head and light lacing
Flavor: It has some Belgian yeast, a little funk, hints of wood, and some raisin/dark fruity flavors
Palate: The body is on the medium side, and though it feels a bit muddled, it drinks alright
Overall Impression: I wasn't particularly impressed by this one. I still found it to be decent, but mostly, I thought it was a bit too confused, and it just didn't seem to have any real direction. I wouldn't rush back.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy dark gold with about 2 fingers of white head. Aroma is mostly pine bitterness with a little dry Cheerio grain scent. Taste is light bitter and light sweet. Pine, caramel and cereal grains. Light bodied with a thin texture. Soft carbonation and an average finish. Overall, nothing really special here. Decent enough to drink but not something to seek out.

Bottle at Palace of Wonders. I can see how this one fits in with the theme of the bar, but the aste was disappointing. Pure bitterness without subtlety, complexity or character. Decent pine aroma,but that’s about it.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a lightly cloudy gold with about a finger of fizzy white head. Aroma is mostly wheat with some light citrus and skunk. Taste is light bitter. Citrus hops and wheat along with something that burns a little bit and some skunk. Medium-full bodied with a thick and creamy texture. Fizzy carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, not very good. I’ll finish this one, but won’t be buying it again...ever.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a lightly cloudy dark gold with a half finger of white head. Aroma of corn and light piney hops. Taste is light bitter. Pine hops and corn with a little bready malt. Light bodied with a slick texture. Lively carbonation and an average finish. Overall, not bad. Would be a great beer for drinking outside in the summer.

Pours a medium/dark brown with a light tan head. Complex aroma of alcohol, dried fruits and caramel malt. The flavor is boozy and sweet. Lots of the bourbon. This might need time to mellow out.

Oak and maple syrup aroma. Cloudy red copper, thin yellow head. Caramel flavor with nougat and walnut toward the end. Shmaltz every now and then comes up with something that really wows me.
