Poured from a 16 oz can dated July 20, 2020. Aroma is hop forward and fruity with passion fruit, mango and tropical citrus with some lighter dank, resin notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a hazy, dull, golden straw color with a medium large, thick, pillowy white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Moderately high lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium to medium light bitterness and faint alcohol notes. Moderate hop notes of mango, passion fruit and tropical citrus. Lighter dank, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty nice, hazy, hop forward pale ale. Solid patio beer.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated July 03, 2020. Aroma is very chocolate forward with lighter roast notes. Balanced vanilla bad strawberry in the background with light alcohol spice. Hints of caramel, toasted bread and toffee. Pours jet black with a medium sized, thick, creamy, mocha head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. No lacing and moderately long legs.

Moderately strong bitterness and light alcohol spice. Light vanilla and strawberry notes. Mouthfeel is full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, an alright pastry stout and possibly the first I have had from Temescal. Loads of fudgy chocolate notes, but the vanilla and strawberry are both rather light, especially in the flavor. Could also tone up the sugar and body to make this even more pastry-like.
