On tap at Stoup - Ballard. Pours clear gold with a white head. Nose is doughy with some crisp piney accents. Flavour is a bit sticky with some resins and a bit of overripe tropical fruit. Not a huge fan.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard. Pours clear light gold with a white head. Herbal pine and citrus peel on the nose. Flavour has herbal pine, some orange peels in the back. Not loving how the hops are coming through here.

Draft schooner at the Virginia Inn, Seattle on 11th August 2025. Black as the Ace of Spades, beige crust. This is solid malty brew with coffee and chocolate hints, slight Rye influence nearly upsets the applecart for me.

Poured up on tap at Tipsy Cactus where it exhibits a clear mahogany brown colored body that supports a nice dark tan head of foam. The aroma offers up chocolate, a bit of dark roasted malt with molasses going on in the background. The taste a pleasing blend of dark roasted malts, chocolate and thin molasses nuanced sweet dark fruity esters. Another sip reveals more of a charred maltiness that reaches into a bit of earthiness. Solid take on the style.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has dry roasted malt, earthiness, and toasted bread. Flavour is robust, with plenty of roasted malt, wood, and earthy hops. Roasty, dry, very drinkable. Good stuff.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard, pours a clear pale copper blonde with a small white head. Aroma has tons of dank hops, a terpene-like character, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is likewise quite dank, with huge pot-like hops, some pine, and dry biscuity malt. Very pot-like, dry, and oily finish. Good stuff but shy of their best of work.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard, pours a clear pale copper with a small white head. Aroma has light pine, earthy hops, and soft bready malt. Flavour is fairly timid, with gentle piney hops, earthiness, and bready malt. Not the brightest hop expression. It’s alright.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has soft toasted grains, straw, and subdued earthy hops. Flavour is moderately bitter, with earthy hops, a touch of pine, and bready malt. Clean and crisp but uninteresting and unsophisticated. Meh.

On tap at Stoup - Ballard, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has some unfermented wort, straw, and bready malt. Flavour is much the same, with some grassiness, light unfermented wort, straw, and bready malt. Has some flaws, as though it’s not quite finished yet. Okay.

16 oz. can, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a medium white head. Nose is very tropical, with tons of piney hops, citrus, and bright, juicy, tropical fruit (retaining that very west coast hop expression). Flavour is juicy and biting, with lots of citrus hops, tropical fruits, pine, and a touch of dankness. Biting, juicy and vibrant hop expression. Excellent.
