Draft: Poured a dirty yellow color ale with a small foamy head. Aroma of tart and dour notes with light acidic notes with some funky yeasty notes is OK. Taste is also a mix of tart notes with some funky Brett barnyard notes with some lingering acidic notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable for the style but a little bit too acidic for my taste which I find hides some of the depth and complexity.

Growler: Poured a clear burgundy color ale with a nice off-white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of deep caramelized malt with some light toffee notes is very nice. Taste is a good mix of deep caramelized malt with some light dry toffee malt notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable and sessionable beer that is closer to a Scottish ale then an amber.
