7.4/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7.5
Can (10/29/24) from the brewery. Hazy dark rose-magenta with light sparkle, fizzy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong plum/dark fruit, caramel, mild allspice. Taste is strong dark cherry, plum, caramel, hint of allspice. Smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation, finish as taste with mild bitterness. Booze hidden. True to style, competent across the board but not exceptional in any way. I enjoyed it.

Can (10/25/22) pour from Candia First Stoppe Country Store. It's an opaque, virtually black dark brown with nice sparkle, fizzy cap of light brown head and no lacing. Aroma is strong sweet and roasted malt with caramel, chocolate and a hint of cherry. Taste is strong initial sweet malt, then yielding caramel, mild chocolate and late bitterness resembling coffee. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and mildly bitter roasted finish. Overall, both aroma and taste are more complex than I was expecting with aroma more balanced.

Canned 4/17/18, drunk 1/2/23. Clear blonde-brass. White head to ring. Bit of soft funk and good stonefruit skin. Lightly juicy, wheaty and with no sugar or any unwanted ester phenols. Apricot and peach still apparent, juicy and soft with no oxidation and a soft wheaty texture. Bit of pepper, plaster and black pepper. Hint of honey and cream. Impressively well-aged.
