Presented from the tap in their standard pint glass the beer was a light bronze color with a little more than one-finger of creamy nitro head with some slight carbonation sticking to the glass.

A rather bland smell with the true aromas masked by the nitro smell in the head. Some faint malt, dough, and bread.

A super creamy mouthfeel with a mellow malt backbone and a biscutty rather bland finish. Creamy to the end but a lot of the flavors are masked by the nitro. Balanced, bland, and very easy to drink.

A lucious creamy mouthfeel with almost "fake" carbonation.

An overall ho-hum beer flavor-wise, but supremely drinkable and a good session beer if there for a game or other long event.

look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Dusty copper hue with ample lacing and good retention.

Smell: Very vague ale fruitiness and toasted grain / husk aroma.

Taste & Mouthfeel: Nitro smooth and creamy mouth feel with a moderate body, toasted biscuity malt is on the dry side. Light fruitiness, ghost like esters and a mild solvent alcohol are present. Even bitterness from the hops draw a light woody flavour.

Drinkability & Notes: Real easy to drink, just above par and lands as a good session beer in my book but nothing more.

Medium golden in color, with a thick and creamy white head that lasted to the end. Light aroma is mostly malty & sweet. Flavor is sweet, malty, with a subtle hoppiness in the end. Some creaminess from the nitro tap, but it also feels thin and watery at the same time.
