T- Chocolate, mild roast, bourbon, faint baking spice, molasses.
F- Full body, slightly thin texture, average carbonation, balanced finish.
O- Nice. Smells like a stout, tastes like a barleywine. Love the 8 oz cans for beers like this. More subdued than I would expected for the abv. Good stuff.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear bright gold with a large white head that turned foamy. Aroma of pale malt - seemingly not bready - with a good amount of Noble hop aroma. Arguably med body. It's quite dry and quite bitter. Mostly Noble grass/spice for hop. Excellent pils.

Sample at the Blake Street taproom. Slightly hazy orange-yellow pour with a medium frothy white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Aroma of resiny hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of piney hops, pineapple, grapefruit and biscuit malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a lingering fruity hop aftertaste. Good collab IPA overall.
