On tap at Toronado SF. Almost black with a small creamy tan head. Quite relaxed with roasted malt, licorice and coffee. Also some dried dark fruit. The finish was rather sweet. An ok one.

Tap at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of herbal hop? Med body. Flavor seems neither nutty or chocolate to me. Mostly a lot of herb/earth hop over darkish malt. Maybe a hint of nut. The little malt does not prevent this finishing towards dry and bitter. "Brown IPA"

On draught at Harryβs Hofbrau. Overt lemon, citrus and tropical hop aroma. Pours a clear, golden orange with full white head that billows and remains throughout. Taste follows the hop aroma profile with moderate malt backbone. Bitterness is slightly sharp, but otherwise a very tasty offering.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream head. Grapefruit and pine aroma. Sweet caramel and light smoke flavor with grapefruit and pine. Medium-plus bodied. Good bitterness. Grapefruit and pine linger with sweet caramel. Not enough of a bite and way too much sweet caramel for me.
