On-tap at The Bruery
A: The pour is mahogany in color with a billowing off-white head on top.
S: The nose is fairly complex with a nice hop aroma provided by the summit and steriling hops. There isn't really all that much in terms of citrus, but a nice pine to it. There is also a touch of the typical Belgian yeasty esters and spiciness.
T: I was slightly let down by the flavors. Certainly a good hop bitterness, and a hint of citrus (more comes through as the beer warms) but there isn't all that much else. A touch of sweetness and a mild ester contribution from the yeast.
M: The body is medium to full with a lingering bitterness and moderate carbonation.
D: Not my favorite of the Bruery's Humulus offerings, especially not when compared to the Lager, but I enjoyed my glass.

On-tap at The Bruery, this is a hard beer to put to a style, this is my best guess,
A: Pours a dark mahogany with a 2 finger white head, leaving some nice lace.
S: Summit hops, wet and dank, pot.
T: As with the nose, big Summit hop flavour and bitterness. The malt is rather light offering a flavour of roast and dark chocolate, but this beer is centered on the hops. For me like an imaginary blend of a black lager, Mischief and Gubna.
M: Medium/full-bodied, strong resiny chewy character, big flavours.
D: A interesting new beer. This beer was made from the second runnings of Black Tuesday like one of my all-time The Bruery faves Humulus Bruin. It's not as balanced as that beer and I think that is what made the Bruin great. Nevertheless, this is really good stuff and certainly worth a buy.
