Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is a ok roasted and char malt. Flavor is more of the roasted charred malt with a little bitter bakers chocolate at the end. Decent Porter.

Pour is a murky reddish brown with a huge tan head. Aroma is some toffee malt and a big whiff of alcohol. Flavor is some toffee malt and there is the alcohol again. It does not hide the alcohol well. Mouthfeel is a bit thin and the alcohol is off putting.

Pour is more of a clear bronze with a large white head. Aroma is an oily malt and there is some hops in there somewhere. Flavor is more of a neutral malt with a bitter finish. Pretty average for a blonde ale. Neither great nor bad.

Oxford tasting; 9% ABV
Dark amber, brown color, small head. Strong beer with a strange concoction of vegetables, caramel, some malt, some esters; veggies smell, strong alcohol feeling.
Very chaotic.
