The aromas are musty hops, wet grain and yeast. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, sweet upfront with more bitter in the back. Okay carbonation. Boozy finish. The qualities don't work well together. Not one of their better recipes. Still, it's drinkable.

The aromas are fresh dusty citrus hops. A little body sweat in the background. Flavors slightly more sweet than bitter with good carbonation. Some pot in the finish. Good body and good drinking. Nice beer.

Enjoyed at home on Presidents Day 2022. Definitely a sweeter porter than others I've had, but overall pretty good. Coconut is rich, along with abundant vanilla notes. Moderate chocolate profile, goes down smooth, good stuff.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed at home while watching playoff football while waiting for a pizza to be delivered. Probably one of the sweetest beers I've had, very rich in maple syrup, feels like I'll have a sugar rush in about an hour after drinking this. For a dessert beer it's great.

Killer Cold IPA. Big-time juicy hop tone, but equal bitter tone too. Full bodied, zesty. Creamy lager tone and just an all out booming juicy hop tone. World Class.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stotu with a large dark brown foamy head. Aroma of coconut and sweet fudge notes is enticing. Taste is also a mix of sweet fudge notes with some coconut and a sweet finale. Body is full with a nice oily texture and good carbonation with no apparent alcohol notes. Nice pastry stout with some good balance.

On tap at Shelter, sample pours a thick, oily black with no head. Legs though. Nose is huge caramel and booze and milk chocolate, not much else. Flavor is all sweet, caramel and blondie and chocolate syrup. Sweet finish that flirts, in a bad way, with cloying. Full bodied. 7 2 7 2 12
