Bomber from brewery. Very dark brown, not black. Long lasting head. Not sure what makes this a white chocolate. Not really imperial stout, more like a strong brown. Some lactose with see sugar but not sweet malts. It’s very drinkable but not particularly interesting.

From Chucks CD. Very pale color. Aroma is whacky with some phenolic the flavor is actual coffee cream Ale with some sweet coffee bean and a set biscuit malt. Clear pale color.

Draft at brewery. Lightly hazy golden color. Sticky icky lacing. Aroma is green hops and sticky sweet malts, also a little orange. Mouthfeel is sticky but doable. Flavor again is sweet and sticky but not sickly. Bitterness breaks through in the end. Meh, 3xIPA.

Draft at brewery. Very cloudy brown amber. Aroma is just slightly astringent thick and chew malts. It’s relatively a light aroma, alcohol present but not overly strong. Very doable astringency, a light toffeeness with light cherry alcohol. Flavor is similar lightly astringent toffee malts with cherry accents. Alcohol really sticks around my throat. This beer makes sense.

6oz at brewery. Super dark ruby color, almost black. So, the beer is definitely sour and strong, as expected. But it basically tastes like a soy sauce strong ale with acetic barrel. It tool me forever to figure out what this is reminiscent of Lost Abbey. This is a Lost Abbey clone, which is not good for me.
