Can (8/30/25) shared by Matt. Clear, pale yellow, nice head with good retention, light lacing. Aroma is subtle pale malt, grain, earthy element--a bit glue-like. Taste is corn and a cross between cheap champagne and Budweiser. Smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation, crisp finish as taste. An easily crushable brew--pretty subtle and on the macro side. Love the sentiment to use Kernza but wish they had done more with it.

Pours mahogany tinged black into an English pint. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving gloppy sheets. Milk chocolate and licorice aromas. Crisp with tart pit fruit, sourdough pumpernickel, licorice and anise front to back. Lasting dark chocolate and espresso finish.

Imperial pint can. Dank pineapple aroma with notes of mango, papaya, grapefruit, floral and pine resiny hops. Pours hazy golden colored with a large off white head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with juicy pineapple, papaya and floral hop flavors. Finishes dry but still smooth with mango, grapefruit and pine resiny hop flavors. Pretty good hazy.

Bottled 6/10/25, drunk 11/23/25, as pictured.
Gettin a nice tequila nose with lots of bread and chocolate beside it. Really spicy, rich, malty, chocolatey. Wow, what doesn't this have?
No booze. Soft, rich, malty, comforting but with a good tequila spiciness and even a bit of smoke. Chocolate for days with bread and cacao lingering. They got the perfect amount of barrel here.

I have a 19.2 oz can picked up our of the singles cooler at the most visited HEB supermarket in town. Stamp on bottom of can says Pkg on 06/17/25. Honestly, I am more of a West Coast style fan than the juicy but sometimes I get a pleasant surprise. I have a globe glass in place, tab is lifted and the pour is made. The appearance is an amber-orange body finished by a slim but steady skim of pure white foam. The scent covers a lot of territory. Juice, mango perhaps, straw and a small presence of hops. The taste is, well, it is okay. Oranges, guava, hay, white bread and a touch of grapefruit bitterness. I'll finish the can but doubt I will purchase again.

Bottle from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a large dark tan head. Aroma of tequila, citrus and chocolate. Med plus body. Flavor is tequila, chocolate, orange and more. Malt is hard to describe, but it's there. Not dry. Somewhat bitter. Very different porter IMHO. Dark fruit lurks in the background. Amazing complexity and flavor.

12 ounce bottle from Tavour. Opaque dark brown color topped by. Finger-high puffy tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and a hint of peanuts. Flavor is big and boozy. Notes of dark chocolate, peanut butter and oak. Very smooth and flavorful. The peanut butter is subtle. Finishes with a big, bitter bang.
