Strange were the times when the Companion was summoned for the first time.

Its quest is that of time and stave. Its motivation? Breach the dark mind and set patience and repose as a true drive for complex barrel aged ales.

A tiny bit of mid brown head, pours dark brown. Medium body, sweet, starts with rum and raisins, finishes with caramel, some dark fruits, a bit of soy sauce. Smooth, decently balanced. Very nice. More soy sauce after warming up, slight downgrade.

Dark pour with a thin, short-lasting, tan head. Spiced rum, dried fruit, cheap booze, chocolate, toffee. A bit unbalanced and too rum-forward, but otherwise a pretty nice beer.
