On tap at the brewpub. A very strange beer. I’m not sure what this is supposed to be. It does not appear top match the style at all. Thick creamy head, grapefruit/citrus lingering taste. Tart and sparkly aftertaste. A serious chill haze is going on here as well.

Very red looking with a good head and lacing. It didn't really have a smell to speak of. It had a small fruit aftertaste.

Dark red with nice, fluffy white head. Excellent retention and lacing. Aroma? What aroma? One of the blandest smelling beers I've ever encountered. Mild hops, but that's about it. Flavor is nicely balanced hops and malt. Hops bring a grapefruit quality to the party. Different, and satisfying.
