On tap at Phantom Fox, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma has toasted bready malt, light caramel, and gentle English hops. Flavour is too caramely for an ESB, with butterscotch, toasted bready malt, caramel, and subdued English hops. Not on-point for the style at all. Poor.

On tap at Phantom Fox, pours a clear blonde with a medium white head. Aroma has bready malt, peppery notes, and some crunchy herbaceous notes. Flavour is crunchy and fruity, with herbaceous hops, some husky malts, and a nice fruitiness. Tastes better than it smells. Solid enough, even if a bit rough.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a crystal clear slightly pale gold colored body that supports a nice white head of foam. The aroma, from the aroma killing tumbler glass, offers up snippets of tropical peach notes and then similar levels of onion like dankiness. The taste delivers a pleasing blend of bitter spicy onion like dankiness and apricot to peach tropical notes. To midway there's a modest vegetable sensation leading the dankness to pick up further depth that's coming across a little tobacco like. I'm not sure if this is the intent but I find it working nicely. Fun beer.
