Poured from 250mL can. Very dark brown with small beige head. Dark dried fruit aroma. Taste is more boozy, woody, and medicinal with some feint orange rind in there. A bit too herbal, but I can see the layers, just doesn't come together for me.

250mL can. Pours deep dark brown with minimal beige head. Aroma sweet toasted malts and dark fruit. Flavour has bready malts, orange rind, dried stone fruit; some floral notes as well. Good woody flavour. A bit boozy on the finish. Smooth mouthfeel. Great beer.

Tried Nov 22 2025
250 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with moderate tannish head. Aromas of roasted malts, black coffee, and woody oak. Flavors of dark chocolate, orange rind, black coffee, a licorice, abit of oak and dry roasted malts. Super dry finish. If this is a new vintage; it’s better. If same vintage; it’s aged really well.

250mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma reveals an interesting dark dried fruit character, spirit barrels, and toasted bread. Flavour reveals that floral, perfumey spirit character upfront, along with dark dried fruits, bready toffee, and a tiny hint of tart citrus rinds that leave a bitter finish. Full of dark fruits and spirit barrels to finish it. Integrated well, with a silky, oily finish. Not a huge fan of the flavours but they work well together.

Poured into my JW Lees Harvest Ale glass. Dark brown. Thin head. Deep dark fruits, alcohol, this goes into pomaceous fruit notes, fig and date things, and right into earthy notes that would love a touch a smoke. Those candied orange rinds from Trader Joe's? Yeah, those too. That dried apricot note is awesome, and bringing dark malts, and eclectic wood to the picture, this is what I want in an old/stock ale.
