Commercial Description:
One of Bam's brown eyes is, in fact, black. When mischief reigns supreme, it positively glows. Dedicated to the dark side; smooth, dark, incredibly delicious as only a Jack Russell with bat wings can be.

750 ml bottle from Liar’s Club. Dark brown with a small fluffy white head. Aroma of roastiness, citrus, and wet straw. Mild milk chocolate, tangy citrus, and slight spices to the taste. Decent.

Thanks to my Secret Santa, pantanap, for this bottle. Pours a deep brown with red hues. Very frothy tan head that lingers for a long time. Great lacing. Nose of dusty cherries and raspberries with a farmhouse yeast aroma. Flavor is tart sour fruits with some hoppy citrus flavors. Mouthfeel is very light, with a rather thin finish overall.

Bottle courtesy of Styles. Pours clear reddish brown with a nice bit of lace. Big fruity aroma, with a but of funk. Tart berry up front, it is a pleasing bit of sour with a bretty and roasted coffee finsih.

Bottle, batch 262, 263. Hazy ruby pour with medium beige head, lacing. Also, as I noticed later on, a nice chunk of yeast floating on the bottom. Aroma is tart cherries, raspberries, mild wild yeast notes with a touch of mustiness. Flavor has tart-sour fruitiness - berries, light citrus. Slight medicine undertones, light herbal bitterness throughout. Finish has bright hoppiness, bitterness and lingering vinuous fruitiness. Mellow, light mouthfeel - maybe even a little too light. Sourness coupled with bitterness a very nice combo in this very interesting brew.

Strong Pinesol aroma which although lemony fresh, made me think of a bathroom that was just cleaned. So not a good start. Beer looked good though. Dark ruby color with a significant, tanish head that lingered and gave nice lacing. But the flavor was a disappointment. Funky and just off. Finished like water - thin.

Pours brown/ruby. Aroma of oak, cherry, funk. Taste is roughly the same with a nice malt backbone. Nice beer.

Very dark brown/root beer in color. The nose is skunky and adds scents of anise and yeast. Very odd and definitely not my favorite, is something wrong? In the mouth it is rather flat with some anise and fish water.

reddish, ruby body...JP aroma with hints of cherry, oak, berry (nice and sweet, very inviting)..the flavor is basically a dusty/musty JP beer...JP aroma, JP app, JP flavor, JP palate...this might be the same beer as JP Noel...realizing that all their beers are strikingly similar
