750mL bottle drunk 11/17024. Light haze, deep peach-bronze-cantaloupe. Small, off-white head. Almonds, lime, bit of lactic and light Brett acidity with strong malt and strong Sacch character. Fruity, rich, a bit boozey. Kinda oaky, very fruity, woody, moderately tart, juicy, rich, malty, alcoholic. It's interesting and rich, malty but a bit much, and I'm not sure I want my old fashioned to be sour-based.

5oz brewery draught, 11/17/24. Cola-licorice. Clear. Thin, dark beige head. Juicy, rich, rounded. There's acidity but it's not aggressive. Good chocolate and honey-like maltiness in support. Tasteful fruit additions. Juicy, fruity, lightly chocolatey. Super interesting culture. Lighter body, wouldn't hate a bit more depth but it's not very acidic, so not a big problem. Obviously well-cared-for.

5oz draught at the brewery, 11/17/24. Clear, not pitch black. Small, light tan head quickly to ring. Comforting bourbon spice and rich, caramel and chocolate-toned malts with no booze. Lots of spicy bourbon with low oak/low tannin. Chewy texture, not thick or syrupy, high attenuation. Not thin, but a more medium body. No overt booze, though some warming in the finish alongside the heavily spicy bourbon. That's some excellent barrel character, really adds a lot of flavor and complexity. Balanced and interesting. Definitely some blueberry spice/skin and mead phenolics.

Brewery draught, 11/17/24. Clear medium amber. Small, off-white head. Black tea, various spice and mild citrus with fruity yeast, plaster/mineral and low roast. Very clean and aromatic. Soft, malty, with a bit of chewy caramel and notes of tea and citrus from hop. Reasonable malt depth, slightly interrupted by a bit of heavier toast. Quite dry. Lingering red fruit and mild citrus with low to moderate bitterness.

Thanks Clark. Aroma is oak, light funk, fruit. Taste is tart cherry, oak, alcohol is not hidden. It's ok.

5 oz. part on tap as part of a flight at the brewery. Murky dark brown, thin head, no lacing. Aroma is vague pumpkin spice, earthy root vegetable/dirt, cow patty. Taste is strong earthy root vegetable, dank, bitter. Smooth texture, flat carbonation, finish as taste. I love this brewer for doing experimental stuff--unfortunately, this one didn’t work for me.
