On tap at AleSmith in San Diego, CA.

It’s good. But so are a lot of things. I definitely wouldn’t ask Santa for another for Christmas. Although, I’d recommend it to him to get a good buzz while completing his yearly journey. Yeah, I may not risk it all like “Midnight Express” to get another taste of Turkish Speedway, but it’s still good for this moment.

On tap at AleSmith Observation Room during the 2015 Speedway Grand Prix. 11/12/15.

Little deviation from the original Speedway in this variant. Moderate coffee presence.

On tap @ the source for Grand Pre during SDBW.

A: Pours black with thin mocha head which fades quickly to the rim leaving spotty lace.

N: Cardamon spice dominates, mildly earthy and faint roasted coffee.

T: Follows nose with a nice overall balance of flavors, none being overbearing.

M: Full body and semi-moderate carbonation. Spiced coffee finish.

O: Tied for third place in Lap 2. Just couldn't get past the cardamon.
