Poured from 500mL bottle (2024 vintage). Near black with minimal beige head. Soft iodine-y peat forward nose, dark sugars, medium body, on par with the westward whiskey variant.

500mL bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has tons of smoky peated scotch barrels, medium roast, and plenty of earthiness. Flavour has plenty of iodine—being driven by the peated scotch barrels—with some smoked meat, earthy malt, and a touch of roast. The barrel character is very prominent, but I guess it’s the base malts that aren’t quite there? Not much depth or complexity, but it’s quite nice overall.

500mL bottle. Pours black with a small tan head. Lots of peated whiskey and some dry malts on the nose. Flavour has dry bready malts, plenty of peated whiskey barrels; a bit light on the malts. The barrel treatment is pretty good, but the malt base isn't really there. It's pretty good, but not great.

On nitro tap at Roscoe’s, pours black with a big creamy tan head. Aroma has plenty of earthy coffee and gentle roast. Flavour is smooth, with plenty of deep, earthy coffee, gentle roast, and very low-level sugars. The nitro washes a lot of the complexity away though, which is disappointing. Solid—could be better with proper CO2 carb.

On tap at Gigantic, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has pretty washed out hops—a bit cardboardy, some dusty earthiness. Flavour is not particularly distinct, with light piney oils, some bittering hops, and crisp biscuity malt. Pretty muddled and dull hop expression. Decent at best.

On tap at Gigantic, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of allium, lemony detergent-like hops, a hint of pine, and biscuity malt. Flavour is fairly subdued, bringing out plenty of bittering hops but that distinguish a hop expression—lightly floral, a touch of pine—with a dry, bitter finish. Drinkable but not too exciting.

On tap at Gigantic, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is fairly dull, with gentle earthy hops, a touch of pine, and bready malt. Flavour reveals plenty of bitter pine, crisp biscuity malt, and some earthiness. Not a very distinct hop expression; structurally good, just not that intriguing. Okay.
