New England Bucket List Trip #63. 12 ounce can from Nikki’s Liquors. Pours a hazy yellow with a medium sized frothy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of doughy, buttery malts and a bit of earthy hops. The taste is buttery, doughy malt, apples, mild tea, grain and hops. Medium bodied, high carbonation.

Sampled at 3rd annual RI Brewfest. Aroma is a pound of cocoa powder, mild salty brine and burnt barely. The taste is roasted malts, sweet cocoa powder with a slightly briny mineral quality. Faint but bitter coffee in the finish. The body leans on full and is balance nice with the brine/ salt helping counter-point the chocolate. Very nicely worked.

Sampled at 3rd annual RI Brewfest. Aroma is decent amount of roasted malts with ash and hint of vanilla. Flavor is deep roasted grain, burnt barley, roasted coffee grounds, and light notes of licorice. Secondary hints of dark fruits and roasted nuts. Body is leaning on full with a creamy, velvety texture. Nice

OK, my can says robust, not raincloud but there is a raincloud on the can, whatever. Nice big black pour. Got this can from the beer store in Nashua. A thin creamy head resides on top. Nice smooth porter or stout aromas. Somewhat tastes like a more mild impy stout. Almost Baltic but not quite. Yes, lets you know its near 7% but fairly well reserved. Has somewhat of a burnt texture to it. Alky finish is apparent. I guess that’s why its said to be robust, heheh.

Slight brown and pale. From a can I got at the beer store. Smells like old beer. Barely any co2. Odd plastic feel to this one. Not sure what to think at 4 AM just before the blizzard. Hides alky well for 6.5%

On tap at Granite State on tap. Lightly hazy golden color with a minimal head. Grainy bready malty aromas with hints of fruit and spicy hop. Decent golden ale. but a bit rough around the edges.

12oz can thanks to Travlr
Pours cloudy golden with a huge white head, some lacing. Aroma is malty, grains and citrus. Taste is citrus, straw and herbal
This beer really changed over time, and not for the better. After the initial pour it was a nice, clean and crisp. After it warmed up it became herbal, solvent and bitter. My score would be much higher if I drank it fast while it was cold.

Bottle. Clear deep golden amber color, persistent beige head. Aroma is a bit odd, smoky slightly medicinal toasted biscuit. Taste has cocoa and more medicinal oddness.
