From tap at Southern Grist Brewing Company, Nashville. Huge espresso aroma with beany coffee, cocoa, milk chocolate, chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake, mocha, fudge, peanut butter. Flavour is sweet and a bit roasty bitter. Body is full. Brilliant, much better than the base beer, no syrupy molasses and less peanut butter in favour of loads of espresso.

Panda thanks to Wingman. A light haze on this slightly dirty looking gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, a very mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Soft light pale malts bring a smooth creamy sweetness, a slight cereal vibe but, in a very natural way, not at all annoying. Smooth soft cooling pine overlays a very slightly sweet and very slightly ripe citrus and tropical fruits melange. Mango and ripe tangerine and mandarin are probably the most dominant flavours. A light finish leaves a particularly mild but, detectable hop spice. Pretty drinkable.
