Almost back to back giant killers at Sam's Chapel Hill tasting. Does anyone drink water anymore?
Lux, oily black, slight russet, lingering coffee lace.
Loads of barrel, still big oatmeal, sticky malt nose.
Viscous, soil, toasted mallow, still very earthy but way sharper because of the barrel. Lingering acid, earthy all the way.
Strong & slow but still good.
Enjoyed the OG more.

Bottle shared by a man named Turd. Chapel Hill August tasting.
Black, oily, lathery mocha lace.
Semisweet nose, oats, earthy, slight savory smoke.
Earthy sweet, mellow soot, chewy grains, faux bourbon, lingering aged hops.
Greasy texture, mid-low carb, strong but good for the style.
Really great.

Draught at Schilling, 3/16/24. Clear medium amber. Small, beige head, modest retention. Malty! Brown bread, honey, and crisp yeast to balance. Rich, with light mineral and good acidity. Moderately to lightly malty. Toast, chocolate, caramel all crowd in, though the body doesn't quite stand up. Just a bit lighter than I'd like. Bit too toasty/woody. But the base maltiness is still there and well-done. Lingering mineral, maple, molasses and mild coffee.
