Can (10/24/19) pour from Colonial Spirits, Acton. Appearance is opaque black with light sparkle at edges of the glass, finger-width light brown head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is roasted malt over coffee, earth. Taste is strong roasted malt and weaker coffee (bordering on char), mild dark fruit and dark chocolate. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin, frothy texture, average carbonation, decent alcohol warmth and finish as taste. Overall, this checks all the right boxes without being terribly exciting. Taste is the strong point here but even then is mostly just roasted. Good but a category where good isn't good enough.

16 oz can from Tavour, 2/26/20. Fully hazed darker orange color, nice sheeting head, strong lace. Pretty dank. Citrus, light stone fruit. On the drier side for the style. Tasty. Better as it warms closer to room temperature. Had I only had a small pour my score would have been lower. 7/4/8/4/16

Pours a near black from a can. Light coffee aroma and flavor, very thin and sweet. Watery. Okay beer.

Taster pour on tap at The Grill Next Door. Appearance is deeply hazy dark yellow with decent sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with fair retention and light lacing. Aroma is lemony citrus. Taste is very strong and too citrusy sweet--like Pledge--with late tart citrus and then biscuity malt. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, lightly frothy texture, lively carbonation and dry, crisp finish as taste with lingering bitterness. Overall, too lemony and overly carbonated.

Got these sweet headbands today. This beer is calming me down after a whirlwind six hours.

16 oz can from Tavour. Pale yellow, milky, soft foamy head. Fruity aroma, some citrus, some tropical, some stone fruit. Taste brings citric bitterness, mellowed by some sweetness. Light in body, some bitterness lingers.

Bottle pour into frozen steins on Jason's deck. Appearance is cloudy, dark yellow-light brown with no discernible sparkle, icy lacing. Aroma is strong lime and a hint of gin. Taste is as aroma. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, lime is so dominant you can't find the beer underneath. Refreshing and enjoyable.

Taster pour on tap at the brewery. Appearance is cloudy dark yellow-light brown with no sparkle, ring of off-white head with good retention. Aroma is grapefruit, musky (almost arm pit) herbal. Taste is herbal (?basil?) and lighter grapefruit. Palate is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average-to-lively carbonation and dry finish as taste. Overall, nice, strong herbal notes--not your typical Mosaic. Not getting the described fruit notes.
