From Beer Drop. I couldn't find a date where it says packaged on but further down, I see a stamp that has 12 something 31. 8 months old?
Beautiful slightly hazy gold pour a finger of foam, pretty good lacing.
I smell spicy hops, some grass, cracker malt, the hops are almost noble like. It doesn't smell old.
The taste is plenty spicy hops, cracker malt, some grass, I will say that the hops are of noble character. Doesn't taste old.
The mouthfeel is smooth and somewhat juicy.
I nice example of the style.

Pour is a murky river water brown with no head. Aroma is pretty much all barrel. Very oaky with some molasses and sugary dark fruit. Flavor is more oak barrel with some cherry and vanilla. Finish is a bit of hot alcohol with some sugary dark fruit. The wood is not so much bourbon it just very oaky. Decent but a bit hot right now, but decent flavor otherwise. This was a expensive $10 can of beer but this is decent after dinner birthday beer.

Pour is a black with a large mocha head. Aroma is roasted malt bitter bakers chocolate and alcohol. Flavor is the same roasted malt, some semi sweet chocolate and some alcohol. Thick and heavy mouthfeel with layers of roasted malt left on the tongue. Pretty good.

Pour is a dark mahogany with a small white head. Aroma is some molasses and cherry malt. Flavor is more molasses and cherry wood with some treacle. Quite flavorful for a beer at only 4.3% abv.
