12 oz can. Pours clear brown with an off-white head. Cocoa aroma, molasses, touch roasty. Silky chocolate flavor, molasses, touch of coffee and roastiness. Some creamy sweetness to it. On the lighter side, but very tasty. I’m a fan.

Bottle shared at a tasting. Dark caramel pour with a thin tan head. Tons of sugar, caramel, vanilla and coconut notes. The flavour is there, but the beer is too sweet, making it a bit too hard to drink.

Refrigerated brown bomber poured into a glass. Black with opaque with small beige head. Aroma is light coffee, medium/thick body, medium/light carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is really nice coffee, malty, chocolate, and a little coconut.

Shared bomber in tulip snifters. Brown color that shines red with sunlight behind it. Wine is mellow present on the nose, palate and finish--but not so dominant to be bad. Wine and beer nicely balanced. The "beer" character Is surprisingly smooth for the high ABV.

12 ounce can into pint glass, canned on 3/10/2017. Pours fairly crystal clear pinkish/reddish orange/amber color with a 1-2 finger dense light pink head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tart/juicy cherries, grapefruit, tangerine, lemon zest, orange peel, light pine, honey, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of cherries, citrus/pine hops, and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart/juicy cherries, grapefruit, tangerine, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, honey, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine/grassy/citrus peel bitterness and light fruit tartness on the finish; with lingering notes of cherries, grapefruit, tangerine, lemon/orange peel, pine, honey, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of cherries, citrus/pine hops, and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/tartness balance, and zero astringent hop/fruit flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from lingering bitter/tartness, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Slight resins and fruit acidity near the end of the glass. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.3%. Overall this is a great fruited IPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of cherries, citrus/pine hops, and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth, easy, and quite refreshing to drink; thanks to the balanced bitter/tartness and drying finish. A very enjoyable offering.

12 ounce can into snifter, canned on 1/4/2017. Pours nearly opaque dark brown/black color with a 1 finger dense khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted oats, caramel, molasses, brown sugar, dark bread, and nuttiness; with lighter notes of raisin, prune, fig, date, licorice, smoke, char, herbal, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Quite yeasty, but not overwhelming in the aromas. Taste of big dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted oats, caramel, molasses, brown sugar, dark bread, and nuttiness; with lighter notes of raisin, prune, fig, date, licorice, smoke, char, herbal, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate herbal/spicy hop and roast/char bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted oats, caramel, molasses, brown sugar, dark bread, nuttiness, light licorice/dark fruit, herbal, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; with a great roast/hop bitter/sweet balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light dryness from roast/hop bitterness, lightly increasing through the glass. Light-medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready, and slightly sticky/chalky balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Mildly warming alcohol for 9%. Overall this is a very nice English style imperial oatmeal stout. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the big ABV. The yeast definitely has a good presence in the overall flavors, but there is still a lot of really nice strong malt complexity to back it up. A very enjoyable offering.

12 oz can. Pitch black pour with dark ruby highlights and a tan head with good retention. Good lacing. Roasted nose. Taste matches the nose with minor coffee notes. Imperial edge decreases the enjoyment. Almost really good. 9.0 ABV is fairly hidden.
