Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a dark black color with a thin tan semi-foamy head. Not much lace.
The aroma had some roast, lemon tang, light vinegar, cocoa powder, some saltiness and ended with a little bit of earthiness.
The flavor was sour with a sturdy roastiness backing. Subtle cocoa sweet with the acidic vinegar. Slight grapefruit. Seemed to follow into the aftertaste with a touch of ash. Finished dry with the ash and some acidity.
The feel was between light and medium bodied, some sessionability about it. Seemed like the acidity wanted to get in the way, but what followed through was the sweet smoothness from that cocoa portion allowing it to pull down the ash and roast.
Overall, a little bit of a palate wrecker, this one was pretty enjoyable. I’m guessing this is their version of the infamous \"Polish gose.\"

Poured into a nonic pint glass, the appearance was a fairly dark brown color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a decent pace. Sly messy lace.
The aroma carried some caramel/toffee malts over some nuts, somewhat roasty. Light tones of vanilla and wood trace the edges. Sly dark chocolate and a little bit of earthiness round out the bits. Light cinnamon.
The flavor moderately leans sweet and develops a slight roastiness coming through dryly. Wonderful aftertaste of cinnamon, earthiness and dark chocolate. Dry sweet and earthy finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it as the spice does end up touching a little bit of noticeable harshness, still, it’s acceptable to me. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, that’s a really good brown ale that I would love to have again.

Poured into a mug, the appearance was a murky brown color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a mild pace. Slight messy sliding lace.
The aroma had a nice dose of sweet and roasted nuts, somewhat chestnut-like with a nice caramel/toffee backbone. Ended with a little bit of earthy/grassy hops, a bit more bitter and spicy than other times I’ve had this style.
The flavor embraces all of the previously mentioned aromas pretty nice and sweet with a nicely flowing aftertaste strolling right on into the finish just as I wanted it to (that’s really nice!).
The feel was medium bodied with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good. ABV felt as appropriate as directed by the brewer. Just the smoothness I wanted in a brown ale.

Draft at Shepherd and Knucklehead, Hoboken, 4/20/17. Clean, lightly tart, lightly funky aroma. Bit of an acetic / vinegary type thing, but subtle enought that it doesn't feel overdone. Pours a murky, yellowish color with a ring of frothy white head that dissipates down to a ring and leaves some lighter streaks of lacework. Funky, vingery finish. Clean mouthfeel, tingly carbonation. It is a really nice one for a one glass offering, but I'd have heartburn for days if I drank three or more.
