Tasty IPA, citric and resinous with a clingy, welcome bitterness on the back end. Grapefruit, pine, and passion fruit sit on top of pine, crackers, and hints of pencil shavings and earth. Finishes with a mildly sweet wet malt flourish. Fade has a faint alcohol presence--a bit strong for a 7.5% pint--but otherwise a nice beer. Enormous sweet citrus nose, and the pour comes out amber-gold with a lasting white head and spotty lacing. Solid pint.

Surprisingly malty for a Session IPA, with a biscuit base accented by caramel and grainy sweetness. Hops provide citrus and a clingy bitterness on the back end, while a layer of yeast adds a touch of toasted bread to the fade. Not a particularly special pint, but on the more drinkable end of the spectrum for the style. Pours a lovely gold with a good white head and spotty lacing. Nose is pine and mild citrus. Creamy texure has more body than you'd expect. Not bad.
Cold brew coffee beer, strong roasted notes from the malt, mellows out by milk sweetness. great flavor.
Sneaky wheat leaves the honey notes behind and replaces with raspberry. I prefer the original, but not bad.
Honey and banana yeast notes hide the abv well.
Great fruit notes mixed with strong citra hop flavor. Thanks for the suggestion A D. , Just on my way out of Atlanta.
Sweet and fruity hop notes. Smooth stack of flavors.

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a deep, dark brown with a finger of beige foam that dissipates quickly. Vanilla and oak on the nose with roasted malt and cacao nib. Sweet vanilla, bourbon and dark malt. Quite sweet compared to the other variants and base. Lingering vanilla sweetness and bourbon. --- Beer merged from original tick of Barrel Aged Vanilla Absentium on 30 Jun 2018 at 18:17 - Score: 7

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo. Pours a dark brown to black with a finger of beige head that dissipates quickly. Lots of barrel in the nose with bourbon and oaky vanilla, cacao nib and roasted malt. Smooth on the palate, with the bourbon and cacao nib notes coming through loud and clear. Some slight oaky creaminess to pair off the roasted malt and coffee-like flavors. Warming finish with smooth chocolate notes.

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a deep brown to back with a small head that dissipates quickly. Coffee forward nose with bourbon and brownie notes. Sweet, but nice coffee bitterness to cut it. Espresso and chocolate malt on the palate. Lingering roasty espresso notes with dark chocolate and cacao nib on the finish. Rock solid and my favorite of the Absentium variants we tasted that day.
