Can from Hannaford. Pours a deep brilliant gold color with a thin bubbly white head that quickly recedes. Light roasty coffee with lots of strawberry flavoring and some light vanilla and chocolate. Kind of gimmicky but tasty and easy to drink.

Bottle shared in NJ post Referend party - picked up a good few years ago. Pours clear orange with a creamy, white head. Lots of Belgian yeast, lightly toasted wheat, a little caramel, ample bready notes. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish, lightly warming, some yeast expression, citrus accents. Honestly, not bad.

Bottle. Taste is cola, lightly herbal, cherry, yeasty. Feels a touch heavy and not quite there. Bit flat. Caramel at the finish.

Tap at Bud. Interesting. Bit weird smell. Nice cherry tartness. Weird but nice. Sweet.

Pours clear amber into a shaker. White head crackles and quickly recedes to nothing. Honey and agave aromas. Soft with warm chili and sweet agave upfront turning to hot pepper skin in the lasting finish. Spice is nice, rest is lacking.

Bottle from Beer Ma. Smuttlabs The Stallion 11% Imperial Stout aged in red wine barrels Geez 11% if I’d known I probably would’ve put off openingvthis until I had a friend to help me. Oh well... An inky black pour that had a rusty looking head of foam but it was gone so fast it left me wondering if I’d imagined it. The aroma is potent and features cacao, red wine and boozy fruity elements from far away but on closer sniff the chocolate comes to the fore but you get smoke and red wine as well. Full to medium bodied the taste gives an Ashey-smokey flavor (peat?) then red wine vinous fruit before some oak woodsy and chocolate elements. Not boozy tasting but it gives you a pleasing warmth and is smoother than I anticipated. An interesting take on a BA Imperial Stout.

Midtown tasting. Orange, lightly cloudy and with sone white bubbles on the top. Nose is tart, fruity and lightly funky, kind of feels like cider or even sidra. Taste is tart and funky, farmhouse. Some whiskey comes out as well but its not boozy. Lots of oak though. Whiskey coming out also in the linger. Relatively thin body, feels lighter than 10% abv for sure.

From the bottle. A barrel aged Saison at 10% is new to me. No visible expiration date. Pours orange with a thin, frothy head. Aroma is full of peaches, wood, whiskey and Brett funkiness. Taste is mildly sour up front, even tart, mellows though as the barrel kicks in and brings a dry whiskey bitterness into the mix. Warming at the end. Body is to the light side of medium, carbonation is understated. Unique but probably not worth the high price this is going for in Germany.

16.9 fl.oz. bottle, from Vinmonopolet. Bottled November 2015. ABV is 5.9%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of acid, stale lemons and brettanomyces. Fizzy mouthfeel, The medium sour flavour has notes of lemons, funk, vinegar and brettanomyces. Better flavour when more of the yeast is poured in. Not something I'd buy again, though.
