Pint at the brewery. Pours an almost clear, straw color, with an average, frothy, white head. The nose is papaya, grapefruit zest, water crackers, and a bit of gentian. Sweet and oddly juicy and malty, with a mellow, drying bitterness. Light to medium body, effervescent, crisp, and sharp. Simple, fun, and quality.

Draft at the brewery. Pours dark brown, almost black, with a small, bubbly, beige head. The nose is cola, black cherry, vanilla, butter toffee, and coriander. Not too sweet, with a mellow, earthy bitterness. Medium to heavy body, grainy, and syrupy. Bright, complex, and pretty tasty.

Draft at the brewery. Pours black, with a fair, foamy, tan head. The nose is espresso, cinnamon, dark chocolate, walnut, and toasted coconut. Sweet and malty, with a light, backing bitterness. Heavy, hard, and thick. Beautiful, balanced, and quality. Nothing crazy, but just ... good.

Stein at the brewery. Pours a hazy, orange color, with a massive, frothy, beige head. The nose is grapefruit peel, straw, cardamom, rose, and whole grains. Sweet and musty, with a mellow, grainy bitterness. Light and crisp. Interesting for a lager, and refreshing.

Half pour at the brewery. Pours black, with a small, tan head. The aroma is burnt oak, sugar cane, black coffee, baking chocolate, rye, caraway, and butter toffee. Sweet and malty, with a touch of funk. Some roasty bitterness. Very heavy and biting. Solid and fun stout.
