From a 2$ can at chalet. Surprising viscous black beauty pour and a considerable choco moose tan head, hehehh. Nose is boozy malt chocolate. First taste makes me think about some of the better on style imp stouts I've tried; boozy dark mildly bitter chocolate with a thicker treacly feel. This stuff is pretty much flat and mouth coating on the palate. This probably should be styled as an impy stout. The coffee really don't show up until you get past the middle; and that's when the cinnamon becomes apparent as well. Maybe its better to dispose of the cinnamon in this, it distracts from the overall session. Half seas over clinging numbing finish. There, you have it.

Amber, slight haze. Slightly chewy malt, medium bitterness, light orangey hop notes. It’s okay, a bit older school but without hitting high notes.

16 oz can from Wegmans, Woodbridge, 9/19/25. Pours a fully hazy darker orange color with a creamy beige head. Grapefruit, overripe tropical fruit, caramel, and bread. Drinks on the sweet side. A little sticky. Plenty of flavor, just leans a little too far toward the overripe fruit / sweet side for me. Solid enough.
8/7.5/7/6/7

Draft pours hazy gold with thin, lasting lace of foam. Strong mango flavor - sweet fruit finish that is well tamed by the hops. Dense mouth feel with lingering flavors. Very nice!

My 100th Cape May brewery rating. Draft at brewery. Number one with a bullet. Clear amber red pour. Small creamy beige head. Toasted malt aroma. Flavor is toasted malt, caramel and spicy hops. Smooth and complex. Dry, bitter finish is short-lived.

Draft at brewery. Number one with a bullet. Hazy orange gold color. White ring. Aroma is sour citrus hop. Flavor is more of the same. Sour fruits under the guise of a Berliner Weiss. Quite tangy.
