Can from Total Wine in Santa Rosa, CA. Pours brassy gold with a nice white head. Nice aroma of yeast and mixed fruits. Med body. Malty but not sweet. Not very bitter either. Flavor of yeast, banana and a decent clove note. Nice.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours lightly translucent gold with a moderate, transient white head. Aroma of citrus and white berry. Med body. Pale malt in a supporting roll. Nicely bitter - more than enough to hold down the malt. Flavor is citrus (orange seems noticeable) and/or pine. A little pungent. Some non-white berry, an earth note. Good stuff.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear gold with a moderate white head. Aroma is very citrus. That seems to include a little tangerine. Med body - somewhat lush. Fairly dry. Pale malt supported by citrus and a little summer fruit. Not getting tangerine. Definitely not West Coast.

Can from Total Wine in Santa Rosa, CA. Pours clear bright gold with a very large white head that persisted. Aroma is a bit corny/bready. Near med body. Fairly dry. Very lightly bitter. Flavor is the aroma plus some light summer fruit and perhaps a very light touch of grass/spice.

Capped 500 from the Santa Rosa venue. Pours opaque brown with an extremely transient head. Aroma of dark malt and rye. Full body. It is far from dry. It is very dark malty toffee. Both Rye and bourbon flavors are present, but I think the rye spice is dominant. It’s quite a smooth and flavorful zipper.

Can from Tavour. Pours bright copper/amber with a vanishing head. Flavor is toffee with fruity/earthy hop. Med body. Lightly toffee/malty with a significant amount of hop - including some light spice. Orange/apricot seem present. Malt's the thing tho.

Can from the local Grocery Outlet. Pours light gold with a transient white head. Aroma is light and mixed tropical and berry. Arguably med body. Dry. Malt well obscured by citrus, berry and a little summer fruit. Flavor seems both thin and strong. What can I say? Bitterness persists into the finish. One heck of a session ale.
