Cask at GBBF 2016. It pours clear rich amber with a medium white head. The aroma is earthy, dusty, grassy, toffee, pine, fart, orange, kumquat and orange blossom. The taste is rich, bitter - sweet, spicy hops, pepper, earth, leather, resinous, pine, some astringency, alcohol heat, drying action and grapefruit with a very dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Decent if a touch drying.

On tap at the OBF. Pours a amazing purple pink color with a small white head. A light funky fruity nose. The flavor is light funky berries, a bit odd, the dragon fruit must be quite odd. Very light. Works, quite nice.

On tap at Dooger’s in Seaside, OR. Pours nearly clear amber with beige foam; leaves some lace. Aroma is toasty, some caramel. Taste is lightly malty sweet, toasty, finishes lightly bitter; kind of minerally. Kind of thin. Average.

Bomber. Pours a clear orange color with a small white head. A nice light citrus toast nose. Big sharp citrus hops, some bitterness throughout, melons, toasted light malts. Very good. A bit skunky is my only concern.

20 oz nonic pint draft at Horse Brass Pub in Portland, Oregon. The pour is a hazed brown copper ruby with a minimal off white head. The aroma is faint fresh black cherry along with some wheat grain. The taste is the black cherry currant fruit up front along with a fresh clean tartness that melds quickly to the wheat grain character. Sweetness cloyed a touch as the beer warmed. The palate is light bodied with fine active carbonation and a sweeter fruit tart finish. Solid.

Dark brown, sweet but then fruity and a bit tart. Finishes with more cocoa/chocolate character.
