Can. No fucken idea how the numbers part of Brew By Numbers works anymore, very solid system turned to jelly! Anyway, an opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts, cocoa dark chocolate, obvious and a bit artificial but fine. Tangy and bitterish dark chocolate in the mid gives this brew a maturity it needed. The cherry comes through loud and clear on the back end, ripe cherry, a little maraschino cherry and a whisper of cherry brandy. Light and semi dry finish. Nice. This Impy needs to warm up a bit. Out the fridge it tastes a bit clunky and simplistic. A few degrees closer to room temperature reveals many more and better integrated layers.

Semi hazed light gold with small white top. Very much stone fruits on the nose. Taste of apricot, peach, a slightly sharp citrus, somewhat metalic in the finish and a bit watered down. Body is decent for 3.8% but a modest carbonation and no real bite for such a session strength beer. Not great.
