4 oz. draft at The brewery. Pitch black color with fast dying tan head. Aroma is oak and mild traces of cognac. Pretty good flavor. Mild cognac, plenty of wood, mild chocolate. Body is a tad thinner than I like but overall good flavors.

Draught at Publick House, 1/18/18. Hazy-to-heavily cloudy, cantaloupe-maize with a medium-sized, off-white head atop showing moderately-low retention. Big vegetal character from the mosaic mixes with pine, graham cracker and light caramel malt to produce a very uneven aroma of too much malt and acid. Tangy papaya, lime and dry, earthy, almost ashy notes clash and there's sharp ester and more bready malt. In the mouth it fares even worse. Hugely tangy, vegetal, over-boiled hop acids add pine, grapefruit, dirt, ash and way too much resin. Bready, woody, husky malts are thin and there's no supple base malt character to balance/soften things. Tangy, twangy, punchy bitterness and resin bordering spoiled fruit notes. Couldn't drink more than a sip or two. Awful.
Rerate on draught at the brewery, 12/22/22. Still not in love with it, and it's lightly twangy/punchy again with too much of a rollercoaster between sweet/soft/juicy and twangy/bitter/punchy. But it's not as horrible as it was the first time. Upping the score a bit.

Bottle at BW tasting. Pours out crisp , bright amber. Aroma leads with pit fruit, some barrel notes, caramelly malts. Taste brings all the aroma elements together into a mildly sweet slick brew.

Draught at Canary Square, 10/11/17.
Lightly-to-moderately hazy, brass-golden with a smattering of white head atop receding rapidly to a ring.
Very fruity nose, mixing with light lactic acid and base malt to give a sort of "fruity pebbles" sort of nose to it. Some Brett emerging more strongly helps dispel this, however, and it gains more of a lime and mineral edge to it. Can't really nail down the fruit as it's mostly soft aromatics and quite fructose-derived, it seems (could just be malt-dominated). Still, it's clean enough and despite the strong cereal character, seems pretty on par with an American sour.
Lightly sweet, honey, hay, grain, cereal and lactic acidity mix with blueberry juice. Light grape-like acidity, low, moderately engaging carbonation and a fairly malty texture lead to a lightly tart, lactic and light Brett-laden finish with lingering blueberry sugar and light skin notes.
