Bottle from Stacks. Hazy black, small, foamy, beige head. Aroma of band-aid, varnish, bourbon, green apple, chocolate sauce, black olive, espresso. Taste has sweet fig, prune & green apple in a dark-chocolatey, dark fudge- & molasses-like malt body surrounded by umami black olive notes and some spicy liquorice. Peppery hops in the finish, lingering softly bitter fondant and warming bourbon alcohol. Medium to full body, oily-sticky texture, soft carbonation. Perhaps a tad too young and medicinal, but very expressive and tasty.
