Mooch tasting, courtesy of the gang, can; vintage 2023
Hazy amber colour, not much head. Caramel, a bit too dry for the style, some fruity esters; also, it ends with some unfortunate vegetable bitterness, which becomes almost earthy. Meh.

16oz @ Matt's new place. Appearance: hazy copper with a huge white head. Aroma: citrusy hops, lots of caramel, some caramel. Taste: along the same lines, medium body, almost no sweetness. Overall: it's weird for the style.

Poured from 473mL can (2023 vintage; thanks Char). Clear orangey brown with small beige head. Quite bitter hopping, some toffee, decent.

473mL can, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out resinous hops, big caramel, and some brown sugar. Flavour is quite bitter, with lots of bitter resinous hops, toffee, and brown sugar. Very bitter, centring on the bittering hops, with a more subdued hop note. Rather harshly bitter, despite some nice maltiness underneath. Needs some work.

2023 can. Golden-amber colour. Not getting much head on this. On the nose, raisiny, estery, nice toffee malts. On the palate, it's got a nice sweet fruity character, countered by a fair bit of hop bitterness. Finishes bitter, with a bit of alcohol. Almost gets too estery for me, but it's pretty good.

Can pour at the April DC Ratebeer tasting. Poured a dark copper color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was light fruity notes, roasted dark malts. Flavor was similar, toasted, roasted. Pleasant.

Tobacco and leather. Some thick molasses. Unsweet caramel. Dark brown pour with decent head. Cloying kind of barkish finish. Can.
