Draft at Barcade. Gold with a small head. Aroma is pineapple and orange zest. Flavor is more on the hoppy side then the malty side with caramel and honey. There’s a little alcohol bump in there as well.

I finallu got to try this after missing it on tap three times. Oh yeah, tap @ Barcade. Poured a slightly hazed copper with a small off-white head. Citrus hop forward with some a fruity malt base. Some pine. The flavor is cirtusy with some foral and pine notes. The sweetness fades leaving a long bitterness. Good warmth with little alcohol taste. Medium bodied and very nice.

Thanks to JoeMcPhee for sharing this with me at Barcade. Color is clear orange with a small head. Aroma is all hoppy; sweet and green with faint cat pee. Taste is a bit sticky sweet from the hops and some other cheap sugars. Bitterness is hidden by the sweetness but too much of a trade off. Thick and sticky mouthfeel as well.
Pint pour @ Barcade.

Tap at Barcade. Deep amber-gold colour, thin white head. Aroma is very sweet and honeyish. A bit of sweet overripe fruit, berries and orange citrus. Moderate bitterness and so sweet that it’s really hard to get through. Chewy and lightly herbal/spicy... some light amarillo cattiness and light tropical fruit, but the sweetness really kills this for me.

Tap at Barcade: Pours a beautiful murky reddish orange with a spotty white head. The nose shows some earthy hop leaf, sticky sweet resins, honey and overripe mango. Has a sweet flavor, yet a decent hop character. Mild ripe mango hints along with some honeyish sweetness. A bit earthy with an unfiltered feel to it and a late sweet citrus touch. The finish is slightly resiny. This stuff reminds a bit of Super Kitty from Keegan. A bit too sweet, but has a decent profile.
