Can, from Warehouse liquors, Chicago IL. Pours opaque, almost black with a very small frothy tan head that flops fast, woodsy dark chocolate-maple syruo aroma, low carbonation, medium bitter lightly woodsy dark chocolate-bourbon taste with alcohol undertones, smooth thin body, long bourbon-chocolate finish. Smooth and very tasty.

Can at home, from an online peddler whom I can't recall, 11/03/2026.
Hazed orange topped with a lasting white cap.
Nose is tangerine, peach, grass, soft malts, papaya.
Taste comprises juicy tropical fruit flesh, mandarin, melon, pineapple.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with juicy hop bitterness.
Decent enough bright and juicy IPA ... surprised this only has 6.93 off 16 rates, it's not from the top drawer but it's pleasant and approachable.

Bottle to stange.
Appearance: clear copper color with a half a finger of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: soured wheat scents; lemon tartness; sour/Brett whiffs, subtle white bread
Flavor: wraps the prior noted aromas up to a sour to tart sort of way; finishes with the sour-ed wheat and lemony tartness
Texture: light bodied, sessionable; clean smoothness but also some sour/Brett-like assertiveness
Overall: a very nicely done Berliner Weisse and as far as I know done very close to style.

Can to nonic glass.
Appearance: dark brown in the pour but more of a black color in the glass. Finger's worth of off-white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramel malts, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, coffee notes, roasty tones and some earthiness
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas to a sweet to roasty quality; finishes with blended chocolates and coffee tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability; sturdy roasty acceptable grind on the tongue
Overall: good coffee stout I'd be willing to come back to.
