Aromas and flavors are more like an old school American Pale Ale than a New Zealand pilsner. Moderate bittersweet and other than that not bad but not great.

16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, clear, finely beaded beige head. A big sweet, boozy blast hits the nose first, cola, spicy. Taste leads with whiskey barrel, rye, sweet, woody, figs, rum. Even at 8.3%, it brings a lot of warmth. Seems a bit thin and a surprisingly fast finish.

Taster at LL Beaverton. Dark brown pour, wispy tan head, streaky lacing. Aroma hints at some light roastiness, chocolate. Taste picks up a bit, roasty, bitter, light sweetness, cola. Subdued for the style

Can from Tavour. Pours dark mahogany with a significant but transient tan head. Aroma of dark fruit, bourbon and rum spice. Med plus body. Flavor is dark fruit, a chocolate note, heat, rum spice, and bourbon. Neither dry nor sticky. Heat and wood astringency sub for bitter. Malt is kind of toffee/tmavy. Nice sipper.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark mahogany with a head that vanished nearly instantaneously. Aroma of interesting dark fruit with some rye spice notes. Full bodied. Flavor is darkish roasty malt (not burnt or toasted) with a reminder of pomegranate seeds. There are hints of chocolate and some rye spice notes. Not getting wood - just the rye. Very satisfying flavor and heat intensity. Didn't even notice heat til I thought of it.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark mahogany with a large tan head that foamed around. Aroma of dark roasty malt with mixed fruits. Arguably full bodied. Flavor is that tasty dark malt with notes of chocolate, apricot, spice. Just a little more bitter than malty - but not much more. Good flavor.

Can. Pours a clear golden hue with a medium white head. A sweet light fruit and malty nose. Toast, some mild resin, sweet oranges, not super clean. Dry earthy finish. OK.
