On nitro tap at Goldwater, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out hearty oats, dry cocoa and light coffee. Flavour is hearty as well, with equal parts dry cocoa, roast and coffee. Not that robust or elegant, but it's smooth and drinkable, not least of which because of the nitro. Solid impie.

On tap at Goldwater, pours a bright pinkish red with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out lots of herbal and fruity notes. Flavour is very fruity, with red fruits and a light floral character. I'm not really familiar with cactus, so I'm not sure which part of this exhibits the addition of it. But it's fruity, light and clean. Solid.
