Big bottle at home watching Celtics lose game 6 but in not embarrassing way bought from Half Barrel Beer Project. Fine looking cloudy yellow orange with one finger head. Nose is lovely lime citrus berry and dank weed. Tastes similar mango (just learned not citrus), pine, sticky icky, pineapple, strawberry and some spice was. Burns the tongue. Some slight sweet fruit in finish. Quite liked.

Draft at Crystal Beer Parlor, Savannah. Pours black with brown head. Aromas of roasted malt, vanilla, chocolate. Similar flavors with the vanilla really coming through. Full body with minimal carbonation.

Pours a hazy cran-blueberry juice color from a bottle. Funky fruity aroma. Flavor is a tart cranberry and currant, a hint of lingonberry. Tart, effervescent in the mouth but not in the glass. Good beer.

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2017. Pours a hazy purple with a white head that dissipates to the edges quickly. Aroma has a strong pinot note with some dark tart fruits and a bit of yogurt. Flavor is quite sour bordering on acidic with some pinot and yogurt supporting.

Bottle. Pours a clear copper with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of strong sour raspberry with a bit of peach and a light funky yogurt underlying. Flavor has strong sour and acidic raspberry with a bit of stone fruit and a hint of funky yogurt.

750 ml bottle into snifter, no bottle dating. Pours dense pitch black color with a 1-2 finger dense dark tan head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, maple syrup, molasses, wood, and toasted dark bread; with lighter notes of licorice, vanilla, raisin, smoke, charcoal, herbal, pepper, pine, and roast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roast/bready malt, maple, and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, maple syrup, molasses, wood, and toasted dark bread; with lighter notes of licorice, vanilla, raisin, smoke, charcoal, herbal, pepper, pine, and roast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate roast/char and herbal/piney/spicy hop bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, maple syrup, molasses, wood, toasted dark bread, vanilla, smoke, charcoal, herbal, pepper, pine, and roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt, maple, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great roast/hop bitter/sweet balance, and zero acrid/astringent flavors after the finish. Light dryness from hop/char bitterness, lightly increasing through the glass. Light carbonation and full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky, and lightly sticky/chalky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 11.4%. Overall this is a delicious flavored imperial stout. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt, maple, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to sip on for the big ABV. Not super maple-y, but solid. Feels a bit sweeter and woody than their other stouts. Probably used real maple syrup, instead of flavorings; never feels artificial. Good amounts of hop presence, but not as assertive as the other ones I’ve had. A very enjoyable offering.
