Description
Temporal Artisan Ales is a brewing project that is crafting delicate oak-aged beers in a shared space at Luppolo Brewing Company in Vancouver, BC. The beers we create are fermented 100% in our oak barrels over lengthy periods of time, imparting delicate complexity. Portions of separate barrels are blended to enhance specific characteristics unique to each barrel. Every beer we release has been meticulously crafted from start to finish.

330 ml bottle. Pours black with no head. Aromas of cinnamon, amburana, anise, vanilla, chocolate nougat, soft bourbon, and slick roasted malts. Flavors of dark chocolate, amburana, cardamom and roasted malts. Tasty, but may be a bit much on the spices and thinned by the ABV.

Very dark brown. Just a thin head. Aroma is oxidized, light fig, a fair amount of alcohol, some boozy vinous barrel notes. Not bad.

Heavy coffee, slight hazelnut, serious roast. Like it a lot as a sipper, thanks Ben L.!

330n ml bottle. Pours a very dark reddish brown with no head. Aromas of sweet bourbon, vanilla, chocolate nougat, and slick roasted malts. Flavors of caramel fudge, chocolate nougat, soft bourbon, and oily roasted malts. Dry oaky almost nutty finish which distracts from the sweet and rich initial flavours.

12 oz. bottle, pours black with a tiny beige head. Aroma brings out plenty of bourbon barrels, subtle cognac, burnt cocoa, and a touch of vanilla. Flavour is full of burnt cocoa, lots of bourbon barrels, some cognac, and a touch of vanilla. Burnt cocoa, cognac and boozy bourbon on the finish. It's solid but a bit lacking in complexity.

330 ml bottle. Pours black with just a very light fizzy head that dissipates quickly. Aromas of dark caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate, soft bourbon and slick roasted malts. Rich flavors follow of same with a nice balance of sweet and bitter. And super nice/tasty without being over 12%.

330mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Nose is very rich, with burnt dark malts, burnt cocoa, bourbon barrels, and a touch of cognac. Flavour is very chocolatey, with lots of bitter cocoa, harsh bourbon, a bit of cognac, and subtle vanilla beans. There's some burnt dark malts in here and a sort of jagged character to the elements. Good but this one is not Temporal's most harmonious blend.
