16 ounce can. Honey gold pour. Frothy beige head. Mild fruit aroma hints at mango and melon. First sip is bitter citrus. Hints of lemon and lime pith. Clean and crisp with very little body or flavor. Dry bitter finish.

Can from Trader Joe's. Pours a clear gold with a finger of head that dissipates. Astringent pine and pith on the nose. Toasted caramel more pine and pith on the palate. Quite dry and overly bitter. Dry, astringent finish that lingers.

Taster pour on tap at NH Brewfest. Appearance is very, very dark brown--almost opaque--with no discernible sparkle, thin cap of beige head. Aroma is nice coffee, chocolate, vanilla. Taste is more bitter coffee than the aroma (the more I drink, the more bitter it seems to get), with mild vanilla and chocolate. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, lively carbonation, and finish as taste. Overall, this is just too bitter to be enjoyable for me. Well made, aside from overcarbonated, but for those who enjoy bitter coffee.

Bottle, thanks for sharing. Pours a clear amber brown with a brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has earthy grains and bread with some straw backing. Flavor has musty grains and earthy roast.

Bottle bought in St. Pete, FL. Clear dark mahogany color with ruby highlights and a tan head and good retention. Minimal lacing. Dark chocolate nose. Roasted barley malt flavor dominates. Medium mouthfeel. Simple but good.
