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.

7.5/10 Appearance 10 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 10 Overall 7
Tasty wheat ale that does a damn fine impression of an IPA. Grapefruit, lemon zest, peaches, and apples give way to a mild grassy flourish on the back end, with modest pine and earth creating a balanced bitterness on the finish. Lingering citrus notes and yeast in the fade. Pours a lovely gold with a boisterous white head and good lacing. Nose lacks pop, but does offer citrus, apples, and grass. Medium-bodied and perky, which makes it startlingly easy to put away. Not a home run, but a run-scoring line-drive double.

Another tasty-ass IPA from Scofflaw, this time offering up an enormous amount of passion fruit-orange-guava juiciness tempered by a hefty caramel malt base and loads of hops bittering up the back end. Wet grain, lime zest, berries, and earth all add depth, while the finish makes for a piney, lingering fade. Flirts with growing too sweet but never does, while the ABV remains hidden among all the DIPA loveliness. Delicious.

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.

Sneaky wheat leaves the honey notes behind and replaces with raspberry. I prefer the original, but not bad.

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
