Vanilla Geisha Horizon from Temporal Artisan Ales

5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 6 Overall 4
Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with floral coffee notes and dominant vanilla extract notes and residual sugar notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate notes with floral coffee notes and unpleasant vanilla extract notes with some residual sugar notes. Body is full for style with good carbonation with no discernible alcohol notes. Way too much vanilla extract.

Hazy. Pale brown, no head. Soft, the phenols from the quad dominate the nose but are tempered somewhat by the rich maltiness of the munichwine. Toasty richness and alcohol in the finish. Definitely more phenols than I am comfortable with.

Pour at Dark Fields of Winter. Pours deep brown. Aroma is very cinnamon forward with notes of anise, all spice, and chocolate. Flavour had a good chocolate base with lots of cinnamon, cardamom, anise, all spice. Smooth mouthfeel with slight carbonation. Really enjoyable beer. Well done.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown / black with a tiny head. Aroma is very complex, with loads of elegant bourbon barrel complexity, dark dried fruits, and toffee. Flavour has tons of depth, with huge bourbon barrel complexity, dark dried fruits (raisins, especially), and toffee. Elegant, balanced, and rich. Temporal's best.

Ethereal Space - Blend 1 from Temporal Artisan Ales
2 years ago
8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Dark brown, with just a thin head. The aroma is a lot of tonka beans, smooth medjool goodness, light coffee. Lots of complexity. On the palate, this shows a touch of acidity that slices through medium sugars. The tonka is an accent on the palate, but actually benefits from a richer sugar profile (as on the nose). Only a bit of coffee, slight nuttiness. What I like is this - it's got a great profile, and every note is clear. That acidity...it's not wrong but it's not my preference and of course I don't really know how intended it is or if I should have opened this a few months ago.

PoutAroma dark cherry and some rum and caramel. Flavour dark fruit and some spice. A bit muddled. Mouthfeel smoothfeel but minimal carbonation. Enjoyable, but feels a bit lacking. Rum builds unpleasantly.
