Is it ‘west coast’? Not exactly. But it’s clean and dry, so that’s nice. Not super expressive besides. Some decent rindy citrus, a little pale pine, dried pale mats. Mellow lingering bitterness. Drinks well overall.

330 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with moderate foamy tan head. Aromas of earthy coffee, dry vanilla, oats, oaky bourbon and toasted malts. Flavors of fruity fresh ground coffee, dark fruit, oaky bourbon, vanilla, dark chocolate and oily roasted malts. Very good.

330 ml can. Pours a dark brown with light head that settles quickly. Aromas of nougat, raisins, sweet bourbon (as opposed to whiskey…) and caramel malts. Flavors follow same but more whiskey notes now. Sweet and warm but still nicely balanced. Very good.
