Can pour at the DCBeer December 2025 share. Poured a nearly pitch black color, perhaps more of a cola color than anything else. Thin tan head. Aroma was bourbon soaked malts, some umami, a bit aged more than the 2021 version, which is a bit odd - maybe how it was stored? Smooth, with some light boozy heat still on this one.

Can pour at the DCBeer December 2025 share. Poured a nearly pitch black color, perhaps more of a cola color than anything else. Thin tan head. Aroma was woody, bourbon soaked malts, vanilla. Delicious barrel aged toffee in this 2021 version. Really smooth and delicious.

Can pour at the DCBeer December 2025 share. Poured a nearly pitch black color, perhaps more of a cola color than anything else. Thin tan head. Aroma was some umami, aged malts, vanilla, woody notes. Just okay, didn't hold up as well as the 2022 one I had just afterwards.

On tap at DCA. Pours a clear gold with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has grain and pine with a bit of grass and light bread backing. Flavor has earthy pine and bread with wet grass and a bit of grain underlying.
