Sampled from the tap at Lovecraft. Pours black with a with a light brown head that dissipates to the edges quickly. Aroma has dark grains, roasted malts and a bit of creamy peanut butter coming through. Flavor a nice roasted malt and peanut butter combination with sweet dark grains backing.

On tap at Kings Beer & Wine, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is buggy, with a sort of fermented out honey character, rustic saison yeast, and light earthiness. Flavour is a bit muffled, with rustic saison yeast, earthiness, and low-level phenols. The wild yeast definitely hasn't permeated that well and there are low-level off-flavours I can't ignore. Not disastrous but needs cleaning up.

Pint at Outpost 1706, with a lime. Pours dark brown, with a small, khaki head. The aroma is earth, cardamom, bergamot, light toffee, and grass. Sweet and malty, with a mild bitterness that is a bit off. Light, chalky, and clingy. Pretty fair.

I’ve a pint can purchased on our last visit to Santa Fe. And there is a globe glass in place to receive the pour. A dark brownish, red-amber body topped by a cover of light tan foam. It smells of grain, of course, and straw. The drink is not bad, actually rather decent in a style that makes it hard to stand out. Grain, some earthiness, paper, metal and a small caramel sweetness, very small. Refill the glass and add a slice of lime. Even better.

A 16 oz can purchased in Santa Fe at the Total Wine. Colorful label. Yes, I will vote, never miss an opportunity. A tulip glass is in place, I tilt the can. Hazy lemonade in color with a healthy top of arctic white foam. The smell is appealing in the style. Grapefruit and other citrus, tropical and grain. The taste is interesting, even better than that. Grapefruit again, pineapple, cereal, kiwi, lemons, something resiny. Surprisingly bitter for a hazy IIPA, I think that is good. Decently good in a style I have mostly moved past.

Dark brown, all manner of assertive pumpkin spice on the nose. Strong -like burly, cinnamon and nutmeg up the wazoo. I wouldn'�t call it refined. This needs to spend a several months in a barrel - I'�m thinking High West Rye - to really bang.

Dark brown, nice heaven hill aroma, deep fruit accents, nice dark sugar, touch of alcohol. Solid, though probably heavy handed on the bourbon for lack of base heft.

Darkish pale, bubbly head. Decently hoppy, fair amount of bitterness, malts leave some dryness. Decent as hazies go.
