Re-rate: Poured from 355mL can (side by side with Knob Creek and Elijah Craig variants; date stamped June 24, 2020). Dark brown with small beige head. Some ethanol booze on the nose, seems to have mellowed a bit, but still not a ton of depth. Least favourite of the three. Feb 25, 2022 (7/4/7/3/16=3.7): Poured from 355mL can (date stamped June 24, 2020). Black with small beige head. Bourbon, a fair bit of dark fruit (almost too much raisin?), touch of molasses. Decent, needs some refinement.

Bottle at Weathered 2022. Clear, dark mahogany brown with very minimal beige head. Raisin, dark fruit, touch of port, slightly cloying sweetness. Okay.

16oz can pours a muddy brown with no head. Nose has malt and toast, marzipan. Flavors of malt and marzipan and Charleston Chew. Cola and brown sugar too, sweetened nuts. Finishes watery though.

Purplish cherry colour, without head. On the nose, lots of cherry. Has a big cherry aroma. This is lactic, quite tart, and then it's got that big cherry character.

Can at share: pours near black with beige head. Aroma is typical chocolate and coffee. Taste is somewhat bitter, sweet. Plenty of traditional porter flavor. Solid.

Roast and some oak. Dark brown pour with good head. Light tangy boozy finish. Not as good as some of their stuff. Can.

Nice for a kettle sour, a slight lemony zesty flavour. But clean, light, and drinkable. Not really much sourness. Sk lb

Brown, with a pretty big head. The aroma is quite toasty with woody and weedy elements. Sweetish, toasty and with a nice woody hop character. Medium bitterness.

Poured from 237mL can. Clear mahogany brown with no head. Tons of dark fruit, a bit of caramel and barrel booze character. Quite bold, very sweet, but not all that complex.
