375mL bottle, pours black with a tiny tan head. Aroma brings out bourbon barrels, light vanilla, and booze. Flavour is very sweet and boozy, with caramel, light vanilla, sugars, and bourbon. The complexity isn't really there, and it's rather sticky and boozy. Good, but lacking depth.

Can, courtesy of Ryan, canned 06/10/2021; this is dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin
Cloudy to murky pale blond colour. Nice aroma, the Nelson Sauvin is evident, mostly in the aroma, while the mouthfeel is too dry, and the lack of sweetness penalises the juiciness of hops; the finish is a bit salty, mineral and chalky.
Ok beer, nothing impressive.

12oz @ Alex's shared with Ryan. Appearance: murky blonde with a white head. Aroma: notes of cars' exhausts and skunky (yes, Alex :-P, this is how Nelson Sauvin smells to me all the time). Taste: along the same lines. Overall: another confirmation that I am not a fan of these hops.

Poured from 355mL can (pkg 06 Oct 2021). Cloudy yellow with small white head. Nelson hops of car exhaust and weed hops on the aroma, but subdued on the taste, lacking follow through, slightly thin.

375ml (thx, Peter K.!) @ SalesForce. Appearance: almost black with a beige head. Aroma: quite weird to me barrel notes coming from the mezcal barrel, inky and grainy buckwheat notes. Taste: sweet, grainy, lots of concentrated buckwheat, with some ashy and smoky late aftertaste. Overall: complex, very unique and well-made for what it is.

Poured from 375mL bottle. Black with small tan head. Tons of earthy barnyard notes, leather, mild chocolate, clay mezcal notes, touch of roast malt, hint of smoke. Quite good if you can handle the huge earthiness.

Jet brown with a decent brown head. I have never had a beer smell so much like Mezcal. Smoke, earthy, barnyard and a sweetness. Sweet, barnyard notes, smoke and a nice rich finish. Long Mezcal notes. Well done.

Fluffy, bit sweet and creamy....finishes with a burnt, bitter feel that isn't out of place.

A hazed golden DIPA with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light passion fruit, Epsom salts, light resinous notes, nice. In mouth, sweet fruity malt passion fruit, harsh grapefruits, unbalanced.

(500ml 2019 bottle from the brewery bottleshop) Pours nearly clear gold with a decent white head showing good retention and lace. Aroma is lots of fresh slightly funky pineapple dancing on the edge of ripeness, soft lemon yogurt lactic undertones, moderate wood, some slight wet cellar Brett profile, mostly about the fruit though. Flavour is moderate plus tart and again quite fresh pineapple-forward, just ripe and with a good lactic bite and some lemon juice, light to moderate wood giving drydown and structure, funk is very restrained, finish is lightly tart and quite fresh pineapple-dominated with an aftertaste of pineapple citrus fruit bowl. Light bodied, soft bottle conditioned carbonation. Solid beer, pineapple is really prominent but the fresh fruit character is really fun. Not the most complex mixed ferm profile but it works as a backbone.
