can from Beerrepublic.com. Golden color with medium white head. Hoppy aroma of tropical fruits, zest, light pines, touch of malt. Taste starts malty quicky followed by nice tropical fruity kick, complemented with pines, citrus zest. Long hoppy bitter finish.

Can. Cloudy yellow with a large head. Aromatic, lots of citrus, especially grapefruit, with herbs and resins. Rich malt, not especially sweet, very hop-led, tons of citrus, some pine, herbs, grass. Not so much in the tropical fruit. Quite good.

Heavy palate, lots of stone fruit, modest hop burn, grapefruit and tropical fruit. Modestly tart and dank. Decent but not mind blowing

Ciemnobrunatne praktycznie czarne nieprzezroczyste piwo z całkiem solidną pianą. Pięknie się prezentuje. Obłędny aromat kawa, syrop klonowy, trufle czekoladowe, wszystko polane bourbonem. W smaku chyba jeszcze lepiej, mix szlachetnej kawy i syropu klonowego, plus wanilia, kokos, trufle. Całość dość słodka ale w tle wytrawne nuty kawowe. Super balans, co łyk inna dominata w smaku. Trafione w mój gust. Najlepszy imperialny stout jaki piłem. Cena bez komentarza. Ale raz na kilka lat warto!!! Warka z 2021 roku.

Taster showing turbid very pale straw with half a finger of clean white foam.

The nose shows intense notes of guava, lemon, kiwi, and some hefty notes of grapefruit zest.

The palate is well carbonated and light to medium bodied. Kiwi and grapefruit forward with a lightly sharp but balanced bitterness on the finish followed by a little bit of malt to balance it out.

Draft.

A- Black color, black liquid, no head.

A- Peanut butter, chocolate.

F- Worcestershire sauce, umami, chocolate.

T- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly sweet finish.

O- Nice aroma but odd flavor. The nuts here I think give it a meaty savory taste. Not worth the $15 for 5 oz.

Bottle shared with and courtesy of Kermis. Big thanks. Poured black in colour with little life. The aroma is big roasty, molasses, warm alcohol. The flavour is strong sweet, with a smooth, rich, roasty, liquorice, chocolate, boozy alcohol bitter palate and a lingering liquorice bitter finish and an oily mouthfeel. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Было чудо что я успел к очереди, ведь она была уже 3 по счету за сессию. Очень много шоколада, есть бочка небольшая, конфета с кокосом, немного сиропа. Супер, но версия с того года была ещё лучше.

Can, total wine st pete. Pour is lively near clear very light pale. Very slight bandaid nose. First impression is a very light beer, quite friendly and lively. Pleasing to the palate. Perhaps a hint of bandaid in the flavor, but its not distracting. Interesting and well balanced golden blonde, I'm actually liking this stuff. Very refreshing on a hot sunny day in seminole florida. Could drink a few of these. Near the finish, the bandaid thing increases a little but never gets in yer face. Good job TG for a well behaved & balanced very enjoyable blonde goldie.
