Bottle, courtesy of my wife's boss. Thin creamy head. The bottle says its an american bitter and there aint no ABV listed on the bottle. Smell is a little cloying sweet. Decent co2 but the initial beef of this is that its quite annoying on the uptake, Very rude, alarmingly bitter is a kind phrase for it. Yes, I guess with its volatile alky attitude, makes it certainly a strong ale. After every pour you get a big giant creamy head that wants to flood over the top. Taste is such a beer nastiness; like whew. Difficult and straight up rude like medicine but ironically not in a hoppy IPA kind of way, hops are suppressed. Its almost all just straight up rude ass bitter astringent. Only consolation is the dull numbing feeling I get once I finish the bottle, makes me almost forget how dastardly this brew really was. Such an insult to the palate. Not impressed.

Gift bottle from my wife's boss. Pour is big an black with little head. Taste is certainly milk stout, you can feel it. Darker burnt wood from an aged damp campfire effects. There are legs on the side of the glass. Taste is quite good and mellow for the alky content. Decent amount of co2 as well, makes it rather interesting. Filling in nature. Pretty good stout. Not bad; and it ends with a tad of medium length dark chocolate bitterness on the finish.

12 ounce bottle from Happy Harry's 45th St Fargo, 8/26/20. Black, large fizzy dark brown head, good retention. Aroma of roast, molasses, lactose. Kinda offputting and a little fake. Taste is coffee, roast, cherry, lactose, leather. Thankfully better than the aroma. Medium bodied, low bitterness. I was wrong. The adjunct version was better.

12 ounce bottle from I dont' remember where, 8/26/20. Probably a rando grocery store. And yes, I feel like ticking this before the base beer I also have because adjuncts usually spell disaster. Inky dark brown, thin fizzy dark brown head that fades quickly. Aroma of roast, dark chocolate, cocoa, brownie batter, coffee. Taste is roast, cherry, coffee, coffee grounds, vanilla. Medium bodied, some tartness, lingering bitterness. Overall quite nice.

Crisp caramel coloured body with a very thin, just off-white head that starts at only a centimetre in height, and fades very quickly. Aroma of grass, light toffee, relatively pungent nuts and a good dose of caster sugar and the strongest - biscuity malts. Medium-bodied; Deep nutty flavour with a good earthy quality that shows some bitterness, but a lot of bite, all with a robust caramel sweetness that overshadows the bitterness and punch of the malts and earthy flavours, that show up largely at the end. Aftertaste shows a nice biscuity and relatively understated malt character at first that then shows the earthy and nutty flavours towards the end, all with a good layer of sweetness from the caramelised sugars, light apples and pear notes and some caster sugar as well. Overall, a good marzen with a nice biscuity quality with some sweetness that balances well and is relatively easy-drinking, especially for a lager. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Hy-Vee in Omaha (Papillion), Nebraska on 07-October-2019 for US$1,99 sampled in my hotel room here in Omaha, Nebraska on 09-October-2019.

Berry, chocolate malt, and hay aroma. Dark brown with large tan head. Moderately sweet chocolate barley malt, and mildly bitter hay flavor. Good body. Excellent brown ale.
