Draft. Rich amber beer with a nice cream colored head. Light malt, light fruit, light spice aroma. Very fruity, yeasty, spicy flavor. Medium bodied. Fruity, malty, spicy notes linger.

6 oz draft from Toronado. Aroma is sugary with vanilla, somewhat fruity (raisin type) and some grass. Medium bodied, fairly sweet.

On tap at Toronado on Drakes Night. This is a 75-25 blend of Brettamber and Batch 2000. There is a fragrant banana bread aroma. The flavor is acidic and a bit flat, but opens up after a few sips into a more complex experience. Perhaps a little too much Brettamber, but still a nice sour beer.
