A bit of a pillow head, nice surprise for an adjunct beer in a small glass. Darker gold than previous. Smell is pretty light but after a while I just catch some unmodified wheat. Not as much coffee taste to this, but the notes of grain from a home made style farmhouse. Date & hazelnut latte to pair does affect the taste, but this nice and complex, with both coffee and plum with the wheat.
Served at this Beer & Coffee pairing with Folklore Coffee Date & Hazelnut Latte.

16oz can. Perhaps a little faded, but still enjoyable. Lack of dates on the can are the one thing I don't like about Brother Chimp. Viney, Neo-Mexicanus hop tone. A little thin, juicy, oaty. OK.

16oz can. Rich, bready, awesome Bock. Perfect lagering. Deep malt depth. Rich caramel, pumpernickel, brown chocolate. Excellent stuff.

Tap at Skeleton Key. Fantastic stuff, perhaps the best mouthfeel of any dark lager I've had. Super clean and drinkable, great malt tone as well. Really good.

Tap at BT. Rich and malty. Plum fig. Richer, sweeter. Really solid beer, great example of the style.

Tap at Brother Chimp. Just awesome. Premium UK malt. Classical and just perfectly executed. I'm not sure there is a better Porter than this in 2024.

Tap at Brother Chimp. Very drinkable Dubbel, yeast restrained...no bold esters or anything like that. Great balance. Good stuff.

Tap at Skeleton Key. Nice rye chocolate tone. Smooth, sweet, quite a nice beer. Full bodied, but not overly sugary or sweet. Good.

Can from the brewery. Excellent stuff. I was sort of expecting a really big juicy hop tone, but this is closer to a classical Pils. Probably a few months old but holds up fine. Hop tone is sort of restrained but unique too, which is always nice. Supremely drinkable, well executed stuff.

16oz can. Wow. Another spot on beer from Brother Chimp. Great example of the style. Thick, oily black malt tone, lots of roast, chocolate. Pleasant bittersweet balance. Long, deep aftertaste Well attenuated. Fantastic stuff.
