Sample at the taproom. Clear golden color with a medium bright white head that burns away steadily to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Grassy hops, citrus and malt in the nose. Light to medium body with flavors of grassy hops, pithy grapefruit and biscuit malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Taste from a can at the Weldwerks Invitational, 2025. Pours dark brown, with a small, bubbly, tan head. The nose is cherry wood, rum, coriander, caramel, heather, and grass. Sweet and malty, with a beautiful, boozy finish. Heavy, grainy, and a bit hot. Fantastic, oaky, and complex.

10 ounce at brewery - dark black pour - headless - slick mouthfeel, full body, oily texture - nose is potent whiskey and wood - flavor is heavy on chocolate, coffee, and whiskey - plum, oak, tamarind, light umami in the back keeps it from getting cloying - light red wine on the tail end - fairly boozy in the finish, but given the strength, this can largely be expected and forgiven - just on the border between beer and booze.

10 ounce at the brewery - lightly hazy purplish pick - no head - nose is tart Cherry skin and funk - flavor is dry and tart, bordering on sour, with prickly acetic acid and moderate lacto - cherry skin tannins - not a lot happening besides the buggy acids and cherry - quenching but not terribly complex.

Pint can - black pour with a substantial tan head that fades quickly - nose is heavy on espresso, chocolate, and rye malt - light undercurrents of smoke and red wine - flavor is fairly dry and moderately bitter - coffee is less apparent than in the nose, but the rye malt shines - red wine tannins late - coffee gets a little abrasive on the tail end, but still fairly solid - nice earthy malt.
