Canned. Yellow colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is bready, some grass and mild floral tones. Flavour is grassy, herbal and bready with some slight floral and fruity bitterness in the finish. Quite pleasant, but a bit West Coast like hop elements come through as well.

(Can) Amber colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with orange peel, treacle toffee, rye bread, dried fruit and citric hops. Fruity, malty taste with notes of orange, rye bread, apricots, toffee, some pine needles and grapefruit, and a balanced citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Well balanced and fairly tasty, but hardly exciting. Quite enjoyable.

Back log On tap at the tap station west Seattle. Pours out dark brown almost black topped with a small tan head. Nose is nice coffee forward roast malts a touch of smoke and some chocolate. Taste is more of the coffee well done on the roast and a light sweetness.

Can, undated, drunk 8/18/16 at Camp Muir, Rainier.
Didn’t pour this one out, as we had no glasses, so I’ll give it the default 4.
Smells quite citrusy, with lots of bread dough, honey, light caramel and big white pepper and pineapple qualities. It comes together quite bright, if somewhat sharp/acidic. The hops seem to add more acidity than anything else, though there’s a strong lime/grapefruit element which is actually not resinous. Pepper, grass, grain and more light caramel lingering. Hey, there’s no banana, at least...
Pretty nice texture with an engaging yeast and a malty feel to it that also shows moderately-strong attenuation. Peach, orange, white pepper, hay and bright acidity all comprise the flavor which leans to the malty side, and lightly sweet, but not too much so, really. Fruity and maybe a touch too sharp from the hop and yeast acidity combining. Strong grassiness persists with lots of pineapple, grapefruit and nectarine lingering.

Draught at The Local, Bellingham, WA, 6.7% ABV
Blond color clean. This smells and tastes as liquefied plastic, I’m thinking of the old plastic Christmas tree, not a single good beer quality; rather unpleasant.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out a shitload of juniper berries from the gin upfront, followed by moderate bourbon, some booze and sourness. Flavour brings out lots of boozy gin upfront, followed by harsh bourbon and weird astringent sourness. Seems really messy, but is quite fun to drink. Not exactly well-constructed, but it's decent.

Can: Poured an orange with white colored head. Skunky funky aroma. Fruity and barnyard, but not very drinkable to me.
