Can to becher glass.
Appearance: pale yellow to copper color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: lemon sweetness with some grassy to melon and a touch of grapefruity hops; light biscuity malts
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fair bittersweet blend; finishes semi-juicy through mostly the lemon & melon-like hop tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; smooth along the tongue - not much distracting the flow
Overall: pretty good New England styled IPA I might want to come back to.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: orange/copper haziness with a finger's worth of white foamy to some big bubbles inside the head which popped a bit inside the foam and eventually slid off.
Aroma: dark berry sweetness with some citrusy hops and a ton of lactose, some sweet wafery malts
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a super sweet quality; finishes milky creamy sweet with an almost unnoticeable berry tone
Texture: almost medium bodied - seemed a touch under; sessionable; pretty smooth along the tongue and creamy; no bitterness detected
Overall: a very unbalanced New England styled IPA which leans towards a very sweet creamy character. I don't see myself rerurning to.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a quickly dieing head that barely left any lace
Aroma: toasted nuts, sweet meat, dark chcolate, molasses, woody spice and a little bit of earthiness
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet earthy to subtle toasty and meaty toned quality; finishes toasty sweet and semi-earthy with some dryness
Texture: medium bodied, leaning into being a sipper; some smoothness but also subtsantial dryness
Overall: the first time I had this beer I thought it was a barleywine but the second time I had it was when I realized this is a Doppelsticke altbier and this is nice enough to warrant more pours.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: amber color with a finger's worth of off-white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: toasted malts, some nuts, caramel/toffee notes, wet grains and some woody spices
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fair toasty sweet to earthy sweet and malty vibe; finishes toasty, nutty and malty
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, good smoothness - light grainy tones nicking the tongue - but mostly non-offensive
Overall: pretty good amber/red ale worth coming back to.
