On tap at Spokeasy Public House
A: Pours hazy milk chocolate brown with a frothy tan head that settles to a light layer and laces well.
S: Mild citrus, toffee sweetness, toasty bready malt, a little chocolate, and some fruity notes.
T: Interesting. Citrus, spiced orange and grapefruit, milk chocolate, toasted malt, some fruity notes, a bit earthy, and some caramel toffee sweetness.
M: A bit on the fuller side of medium body, moderate carbonation.
O: My bartender nailed the description as a hoppy imperial brown ale. It's a style you really don't see often, but I enjoyed this one. It's kinda sneaky drinkable.

Amazing fresh hop aroma with malt behind other. Good brown ale malt roped by huge hops bitterness and strong alcohol.

Pours a cloudy brown. More lacing than any other beer
Taste and smell is of molasses and sugar overwhelmed by a woody oak profile. Hops upfront but quickly vanish.
Woody flavor.

On tap at Sunset Beer Company in Los Angeles, CA.
Pours an opaque dirty brown with a foamy dark khaki head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Thick swaths of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of toasted malt, caramel, earth, and slight cocoa powder and plastic aromas. Taste is much the same with toast, caramel, earth, citrus zest, and slight plastic flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of toast and earth bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a low level of carbonation with an almost flat and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with interesting aromas and flavors, but the slight plastic qualities are odd.
Serving type: on tap.
