On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of juicy stone fruits and dankness, courtesy of the Nectaron. Flavour is dank and piney in the hop department, with less of the juiciness that was perceivable on the nose. Dry, dank, piney finish. A bit harsh and astringent but pretty well-made.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours a clear bright amber pink with a small off-white bead. Aroma has plenty of dragon fruit upfront, with subdued citrusy passionfruit and light lacto. Flavour is nicely tart, with plenty of dragonfruit upfront, sour passionfruit, citrus, and light lacto. Not too sweet, just a nice simple, fruited kettle sour using fruit I usually like in these. Good.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is intense, with huge bourbon barrels, followed by toasted caramel, and booze. Flavour is intense, with huge, boozy, bourbon barrel expression upfront, followed by caramel malts, brown sugar, and toffee. Sweet and sugary but cut down by the intense bourbon expression. The opposite of subtle. Very good brutal BA barley wine.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours black with a tiny head. Aroma has a wonderful mixed of coconut and hazelnut upfront, accentuated by the bourbon barrels. Flavour is extremely rich, with shitloads of coconut upfront; the hazelnuts are pretty much obscured due to the high coconut character. The barrels are also subdued but serve to subtly accentuate the coconut and base malts. Finishes moderately sweet but balanced. Excellent.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours a muddy black with a tiny bead. Aroma has plenty of roasted malt, boozy bourbon barrels, sticky sugars, and spicy rye. Flavour is very rich and complex, with intense bourbon and spicy rye character, dark sugars, and intense booze. A bit harsh and chaotic but there's enough here to really appreciate. Complex and driven by the barrels, but it needs a bit of ironing out to be properly integrated. Very good.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours black with a tiny head. Aroma is full of big bourbon barrels, dark sugars, and some vanillin. Flavour is decadent and balanced, with lots of dark sugars, big bourbon presence, and light roast. Driven by the bourbon and sticky sugar. Sweet but not cloying. Finishes on the barrel in a very pleasing way. Very good.

Panda courtesy of Theydon_Bois, cheers Colin! Dark brown-black colour, foamy brown head and aroma of dark chocolate, malt, pastry, with liquorice, roast, wood notes. Taste is sweet, chocolatey, malty, caramel, pastry, with barrel notes, dried fruit, nutty, booze, and mellow roasty bitterness. Oily mouthfeel, full bodied, soft low carbonation, smooth & boozy finish. Very good.
