Can dated the 27th of ? 2018. The month is illegible.

It pours a really dark brown with a big off white head of foam. Head retention excellent, lacing good.

I get notes of chocolate, mole, roasted malt and cinnamon in the smell.

Mole, cinnamon,
cocoa, roasted malt and some alcohol in the taste. Warming in the finish from both the alcohol and mole.

Medium bodied with medium carbonation.

Tastes pretty fresh, I reckon, so the missing month on the stamp must be fairly recent.

750 ml bottle. Date of 11-28-17. Aroma shows coffee notes, chocolate, and lasting bourbon. Flavor of ash, chocolate, mild roast. The finish has oak and a mild lasting bourbon after the sip. As it warms the booze shows a tad. Nice stout!

5.21.18. 9.8 abv but mad light. Was expecting overly tannic notes but the Chardonnay is mellow and mostly on the nose, adds some sweetness. Wish it was more oaky. Or maybe I don't like white wine in my beer either.

The Aromas are dark malt, fruit, and hints of vanilla and whiskey. Flavors are like news, quite sweet and balanced very nicely with the whiskey and fruit. Decent body and pleasant finish. A bit on the boozy side.

12 oz. can purchased in Frisco, Colorado. Pours a clear pale yellow color with a white head and very good retention. Good lacing. Lemony pilsner malt aroma. Flavor follows the nose. Sharp pilsner malt flavor with a light citrus hop finish. Classic profile. Medium light body. Refreshing.

355ml can from Bogey's, Denver, CO. Canned 08/30/18 :(. Sweet, caramely malty, piney and stingy hoppy with some tropical fruits and citrus. Decent.

750 ml bottle from Tavour. Deep brown, clear, beige foamy head, fades to patches. Boozy aroma, molasses, prunes, wood. Taste is sweet and strong, dark pit fruit, brown sugar. Finishes with a sharp tang and a lot of heat. Perfect on a chilly fall afternoon.

#fakevintage for real this time, no stamp on my can. Mostly lazy pour but turned out impressively rich and thick. Lots of spiced chocolate, but after it settles still mostly porterish. Actually yeah, thin as hell after it settles. Good flavor upfront
