01/29/19? Pecan boozy pie. Not good at hiding 12% but nice pecan pie flavors upfront, the booze is in the finish, maple and pecans are well done. (UPDATE) I dunno how many months later, still great. Maybe even sneakier than before with that 12%>

16 oz can from Tavour given to me by my daughter. Nose is nuts, vanilla, chocolate, maple, and brown sugar. Black with a medium cinnamon tan head. Flavor is moderately sweet chocolate with pecan pie notes. Pretty tasty!

16 ounce can from Three Cellars Menomonee Falls, 4/16/19. UH OH! ANOTHER BULLSHIT STYLE! But from a great brewery so I thought it worthy of pulling from the cellar to celebrate the fact THAT I GOT MY DREAM JOB TODAY!!!!!! Black, large foamy brown head, good retention. Aroma of roast, pecans. Taste is roast, brown sugar, maple, toffee, pecans, vanilla, dark fruits. Thinner than expected for the style, a bit of booze, but well hidden for 12%. Overall actually a decent beer!
