Thin beer despite the creamy head. Pours beautifully with a nitro-cascading head into a creamy, white foam. Slightly bitter, but thins almost immediately into nothingness. Watery-banana aftertaste...not bad but not great.

On draft at Clydes in Columbia. Pretty pinkish gold color, like a dark zinfandel. Could be the bad lighting in clydes. Looked good. Foamy small white head. Floral bouquet and a crisp hoppy tastes with a creamy mouthfeel. Pretty good stuff. I’ve had cans in the past, but the draft tastes pretty decent. Heck i didnt even know it was available on draft.

My nitro can pretty much just explloded on me... cant say I’ve had that problem with any of the nitro cans before. That said, pours a dark blonde, almost amber color with a creamy white that I would expect from a draught can. Has a decent aroma of sweet malt and maybe even a little banana in there. Now im sure, there is banana in th e taste along with a mild hoppiness. Not a very strong bitterness (which I expected from a bitter) , but this isnt bad.

pint can in pint glass, yellow color with lots of carbonation from the nitro, starts off an opaque gold turning into a clear yellow with nice creamy head, flavor is mellow with not a lot happening, nice easy to find bitter

I love this beer more then anything. The greatness starts with the pour and what I call the upside down waterfall. It then ends with creamy , sweet and bitter greatness all at once. Closest to perfect I can give.

Pours a gold color with a hint of amber. Creamy looking 1 finger white head that sticks around for a while. Very faint aroma. Not much detectable other than some biscuity sweet malt. Nothing really stands out in the flavor here, with sweet doughy malt, a touch of sweet fruit and floral hops, and maybe some almond/vanilla sweetness as well. Very understated, but not in a good way. Overly subtle and somewhat watery. Mouthfeel is, on the contrary, excellent. Extremely creamy and smooth, with good carbonation. Very very drinkable, but not flavorful enough to really entice me.

Pint can with the "wicket" or widget- cartridge. When poured into a glass it has a nice carbonation-bubles in action. Honey gold, white creamy head. This had a great creamy flavor light and clean. Had a bit of a bitter bite but very balanced and enjoyable.

Nice creamy and smooth taste. Not too over powering , has a nice taste and is a little sweet.
