Impressive beer, rich and not cloying, deep dark fruit notes, warming booze, toasted barrel, figs, berries, chocolate, roast. Nice to have a BA impy less the pastry. Almost drying to finish.

Bottle at CBJ tasting, thanks to LKS. Near opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Airy smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Mellow dark malts, a modest dark chocolate. Mild dark malt cream. Light but pleasing PX ripe fruits on the back end along with a little spice. Light and drinkable.

Bottle split at CBJ, thanks to LKS 07/05/2025.
Light black topped with a khaki crown.
Nose is rich roast, maple syrup, molasses, dark fruit rinds.
Taste comprises chocolate, mellow barrel, molasses, spice, fruit cake.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with rising boost.
Decent enough sipper if lacking barrel presence.
