On tap @ Top Hops. This is a cloudy deeper looking golden one with a nice slowly turning islandy and sidesticking white top. Mild nose with traces of sweet strawberries, apples and oranges. Really mild bit nice enough I guess. It's really lightdrinkable at first, but it doesn't taste any good at all. Dry and super grainy. Lots and lots of bad tasting diacetyl. Urg, this was just horrible. 18.06.2015

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Premier Gourmet, near Buffalo. Pours totally clear gold with a frothy, white head. Clean pale malts in the nose, a little grass, husky grain, lemon peel. Light sweet flavour with biscuity pale malts, restrained grassy bitterness, slight minerality. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more dry, pale bread, mild husky and grassy bitterness, crispy straw. A serviceable pils.

This was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a black color with a film of light tan foamy head. Quickly dissipated to leave some light lace.
The aroma provided some roasty coffee tones, some leather, earthy hops and a little bit of dark chocolate and caramel malt blend.
The flavor was roasty at first and then developed more of a light sweetness running through the blend. Light aftertaste of roast to sweet malts. Finish was the malts with a little bit more earthiness.
The feel was about medium bodied with a good sipping quality about it. Light carbonation and the ABV felt right.
Overall, pretty good imperial stout that I would have again.

The appearance was a fairly dark brown color with a semi-foamy off white little head. Not much lace, somewhat stringy.
The aroma had some cocoa powder, dried nuts, light earthiness and a subtle leafy dryness.
The flavor was moderately sweet pulling some faint leather-like sweet tones in and sliding over my tastebuds in a decent way. Not much aftertaste but had a little bit of a sly earthy to leather to cocoa powder finish.
The palate was about medium bodied with a sessionability that made me re-think what that term really meant. I mean, well, the dryness and the leather in this one was somewhat hard to really to want to pound this one. And I would think given the ABV that this one would be fairly crushable.
Overall, as a brown ale fan, I’m not entirely sure this is a brown ale that I can have all of the time. Maybe.....

The appearance was a golden yellow color with a slight transparency to it. Some carbonation could be seen rising at a moderate pace. Slight cap of a little white head, just slid off super quick.
The aroma didn’t have much, some honey, light lemon, maybe some grassy hops.
The flavor was all of the way sweet. The aftertaste was sweet. The finish was sticky sweet.
The palate was light bodied with a pretty good sessionability about it. I will give this beer that much. ABV matches it’s ability to be crushed on the hot days.
And I’d have it again basically for that. And maybe with some food too.
