22oz bottle looks like apple juice. Zero head. Tastes like apple juice that was left to become vinegar but was prematurely bottled in a Santa Fe bomber. Apples and not much else.

Can at Flying Saucer. Pours a cloudy copper with small off white head that diminishes rather quickly. The aroma is a strong floral hop and grapefruit. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet hop and nice lingering bitter finish. A good IPA from Sante Fe.

Where the Wild Beers Are, 2011. The flavor and aroma have a strong mineral quality. The beer is quite dry, with lots of yeast, and is just barely sour. Some honey in the aroma.

12 ounce can into snifter, no canning date. Pours pitch black with some brown on the edges; with a huge 2-3 finger khaki head with incredible retention that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Some nice lacing clinging to the glass as well. Aromas of big roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate, roasted malt, caramel, biscuit, and some herbal hops. Very nice and well balanced aromas. Taste of big chocolate, roasted coffee, caramel, roasted malt, toast, and light spiciness. Good amount of bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of coffee, roasted malt, caramel, and herbal spiciness. Nice balance of flavors with a good amount of robustness. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a decently creamy and slightly slick mouthfeel. Very easy to drink for 8%, and there is really no alcohol presence noticed. Overall this is a great coffee stout! I am guessing this was at least over a year old, but it has held up the coffee flavors quite nicely. Nice balance of flavors and easily drinkable.

12oz bottle pours amber with copper hues and thin tan head. The aroma is full of malt earthiness and nuttiness as well as sweet malts and some fruity esters. The load of earthiness and nuttiness almost gives it an oxidized sensation. The taste has sweet malt mixing with a slight malt roastiness and slight drying astringent sensation to go along with growing nutty and earthiness to midway and into the finish. Around the edges are wafer thin rings of sweet dark fruity esters.
