Short pour at the brewery. Pours black, with a fair, frothy, beige head. The nose is dark chocolate, chicory, caramel, charcoal, and vanilla. Sweet and malty, with a mild, earthy bitterness. Light to medium body, smooth, dusty, and a bit sticky. Quality.

Backside of the building, with a roped-in garden area. Industrial feel, loud, and chaotic. The beer list is a little thin, but not bad. The bartenders were busy, but friendly enough and quick. No flights, and even the short pours a pretty pricy, which is disappointing. Nice beer, and seems like a nice hangout spot.

750 mL bottle, drunk from a hotel tumbler. Orange and fairly opaque, with a thin, bubbly head. The nose is red wine tannins, sea salt, lemon zest, black pepper, wet grass, and green apple. Sweet and juicy, with a mellow, leathery tartness. Medium body, musty, and drying. Complex and quite tasty.

Draft at the brewery. Pours an dull, unclear, orange color, with a small, foamy, beige head. The aroma is candied orange, nutmeg, cane sugar, mild spruce, and lavender. Very sweet and sugary, with a mellow, pithy bitterness. Heavy body, syrupy, and clingy. Nice , strong and fun.

Short pour at the brewery. Pours black, with small, foamy, tan head. The nose is creme de cocoa, toasted coconut, maple syrup, and toffee. Very sweet and syrupy, with no bitterness or balance. Heavy, syrupy, and bit malty, and slick. Decadent and syrupy (in case you didn't catch it earlier). Quite tasty.

Taster at the brewery. Pours a murky, straw color, with a small, bubbly, white head. The nose is coriander, lemon cream, peach, mild leather, and rose water. Sweet and sugary, with a lovely, easy, citrusy sour flavor. Light to medium body, smooth, crisp, and clean. Beautiful, balanced, and delicious.
