Tap at Draught 55. Excited to get to try this new brewery. Pours incredibly light yellow like watered down macro, nose is light hops and citrus. Tastes of lemon, grass, minerally, some pine. It’s very bitter and very clean, kinda stings back of throat but is very appealing..can’t put finger on why i like this but I really do.

Cooper’s Craft and Kitchen, NYC tap: Pours black with a beige head. Aroma is minerally as all hell, plenty of bitter chocolate, dirt, and quite roasted malts. Taste is really, really roasted and full of minerals. This is certainly not merely a nominal oyster stout, but the real deal. Quite bitter. Pretty nice.

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: Pours black with a light brown head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, and roasted malts. Taste is a little sweet, with loads of milky chocolate and light, but flavorful coffee. Alcohol is well-covered. Body is smooth, creamy, and easy-drinking. I didn’t catch many licorice notes or anything in there though. Pretty good IS.

The Diamond, Brooklyn tap ($6): Pours cloudy brownish yellow with a small head. Aroma is a lot of lemon, assorted tropical fruit, wheaties. Taste is rather sour. I didn’t find this easy to drink at all. This is coming from someone who is all in favour of berliner weisses and sour ales in general, but the sourness here was not the kind to my liking and maybe a bit overdone. Sort of soda like and a bit sweet. Meh.
