Draft at Paragon, 8/1/24. Dark brown, thin medium brown head. Sugary chocolate milk, with some light roast and a touch of peanut butter. Super duper sweet, too much so for my taste. Solid overall, in small quantities, but you have to like sweet. 8/4/7/3/15

16 ounce can from Bottle King in Princeton, NJ. Number one with a bullet. Cloudy yellow gold color. Frothy white head. Stellar lacing. Floral hop aroma. Notes of passion fruit, grapefruit and pineapple. Flavor is sharp and distinctive. Plenty of citrus, stone fruit and pineapple. Sweet, bready notes. Some dankness on backend. Bitter grapefruity finish.

Notes from 12/23/13 Nitro-d growler. Always iffy with that. No in-store consumption what now? Inky black body. Chocolate head. 40 minutes from home, already losing it's grip on the nitro. Smell is charred toast, with a buttery cocoa powder thing going on. Just a twinge of coffee. Peanuty, subtle wafer sweetness, but lingering citrusy bitterness. moderate acidity. Closer to a dry stout then anything. Calcium & saline finish. Carbonation was quietly leaving out the side entrance. Started off at about an average, prickly fizz, & ended at just a trickle above flat, all in about 2 hours. Damn, now I'm searching the fridge for something sweet. Grrr...
