50cl bottle pours an oily black with plenty of sticky, khaki head. Nose hits with big, big apple juice. There's a lot of standard imperial stout, port and cocoa, caramel, burnt toast. But it all circles back to apples and apple juice. I drink a fair amount of brandy, but this is an apple bomb. Caramel and marzipan and cocoa and toast are all present, but damn, lots of brandy and apples. Fruity, full bodied, boozy finish. Crazy barrel treatment.

Can (6/3/21) pour from Brewtopia. It's a lightly hazy gold with light sparkle, 2-finger width transient foamy white head with no lacing. Aroma is light and what is there is bread and pine. Taste is initially floral then fading to cracker. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with thin, somewhat watery texture, soft carbonation and mostly cracker finish with light lingering dry bitterness. Overall, wow, I guess this is why it still pays to look at RB ratings (avg. score 3.01) vs. Untappd (3.82). This is surprisingly not good. Probably the worst Lawson's I've ever had. Why did they go through and put this out? Does it have a drop of Cashmere in it? Has there ever been an instance where so little was done with so much? I could go on and on. Even for a session it's not good. Don't waste your time.

Fruity, yet resinous, hoppy, crisp. An absolute delight.
