Description
Scofflaw burst onto the scene during the latter half of 2016 and has quickly become recognized for its highly sought after IPAs and Stouts including Basement IPA, POG Basement IPA, as well as its higher-gravity IPAs such as the Double Jeopardy and Hooligan. Scofflaw's Absentium Stout, and in particular the Barrel Aged Vanilla Absentium stout, are coveted among traders. Even so, Scofflaw's focus continues to be on Atlanta's west midtown area and its surrounding neighborhoods, such as the Bolton hood.

16 oz. can. Pours black, with a medium, brown head. The nose is big vanilla, apple brandy, milk chocolate, nutty sherry, and cinnamon. Sweet, malty, and boozy. Thick and syrupy. This is a decadent and aggressive stout, but fun and tasty.

Lives up to its name, with a huge, chewy, viscous texture chock-full of fudge, vanilla, raisin, bourbon, and more fudge. So much fudge. Too sweet--apparently I'm going to be using this comment on all modern imperial stouts for the foreseeable future--but the bourbon is nice, and the mild oak bitterness on the back end shores things up a bit. ABV is completely hidden. A little much for me, but a well-made pint.

Subdued for a Scofflaw IPA, with a noticeable cracker malt base and moderate notes of grapefruit, mango, passion fruit, and peach, followed by a strong pineapple sweetness and a mild, grassy fade. Not my bag.

Weird, and not in an endearing way. Starts out with equal parts mandarin, caramel, and pine, then grows a distinct lemon tartness mixed with overripe stone fruit and a mild vegetal undertone. Finishes raw and sweet, with a lingering tang. Very sloppy.

Lci, this is the chunkiest ipa I've ever had, it was a disgusting about of nonuniform chunks that come out of the bottle like spoiled milk, really made it hard to drink the ipa itself, I don't think I've had a less appetizing beer.

Thick, sticky, and sweet, tons of dark chocolate, caramel, molasses, and vanilla, but also with a surprisingly sharp raisin-tinged tartness in the fade a bit too prominent for the style. Doesn’t kill the beer, but definitely takes it down a notch. Bourbon is subtle but apparent in the finish. No trace of the ABV. Not bad, but too fruity for my tastes.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear, golden color, with a big, foamy, white head. The aroma is pineapple, guava, resin, quinine, and sawdust. A little dry, with a sharp, acidic bitterness. Medium body, with a crisp, effervescent, and grainy feel. This is a fun and tropical IPA, if a little astringent.
