Draft at Toronado. Dark amber with almost no head. Aroma is very sweet malt and bubblegum / banana sweetness. The flavor is the same, some sweet caramel malt, bubblegum, sugar, and a little grassy yeast in the end. Kinda flavorful, but too sweet overall.

On-tap at Stone. Pours hazy amber/brown with a medium size, crisp white head, some lace. Smells light, crisp and sweet. Cinnamon, bready and malty. Tastes sweet and spicy malty. Cinnamon some pepper, even a bit of sherry cough syrup. Medium body, crisp carbonation.

Tap @ Stone. Pours clear copper with a small white head. Soft aroma of caramel, yeast, and spice. Drinks a lot like a Belgian strong, with a finish of bubblegum, clove, and yeast, with some bitter/sourness. Good.

Tap at Toronado. Dark hazy amber color with a slight white head. Aroma is mildly fruity. Medium body with mild, creamy carbonation. Flavor is lightly roasted caramel, some light fruit and a touch of sour. Finish is neither sweet nor dry. A bit astringent.
