Draught. Poured black with thin lasting head. Aroma of hops and flowers. Full hoppy flavours with notes of roast and more malt. Lingering full all over the tongue finish. Same high recommendation as the original Homo Erectus

On tap at Belmont Station. Pours dark brown, edges have a copper hue, medium tan head. Interesting mix, it all worked really well together, roasted chocolate character up front, big hopped up finish. Some beers of this type get to sharp of a bitterness, the big hops amplified by a dry sharp coffee bitterness. This beer managed to balance it well, actually leaving it even easier on the palate then normal homoerectus.

On tap at Belmont Station in Portland, OR--Poured a rich black-brown body with a light tinge of amber and next to no head. Nutty, roasty, hoppy nose. Bitter,crispy, sweet and nutty. Finished like a very hoppy Porter. Quite good.

Tap @ Belmont Station... Poured black with a big beige head. Aroma of floral, buttery malt. Flavors are chalky and sweet, maybe caramel. Some hops, but way in the background. Given the appearance of this beer, it’s actually very light on the palate and very refreshing,
