Sample pour is a clear amber with a ring of white head and legs. Nose has malt and some oak, like beechwood, sausage and metal and caramel. Flavor is big wood, caramel and tea, booze. Full, sticky, boozy.

Goblet pours a murky amber with some with some grey head. Old school nose, malt and toast and pine and metal and some citrus. Flavors of malt and pine and soap and citrus. Amped the fuck up. Full, sticky, bitter finish.

22oz bottle pours an inky black with no head and legs. Smells aged. Port, cocoa, booze, deep dark dried fruit. Flavor is super port, red wine lees, malt, smoke, caramel. Sweet and thin finish. Finish hurts this.

Another Top 50 (#18) for the style. Draft at brewery. 2025 vintage. Jet black pour. Creamy tan cap. Aromas of treacle and roasted malt. Flavor is more of the same. Dark roasted malt, molasses, tobacco, burnt sugar and resiny pine. Sticky mouthfeel, big hoppy finish. Warming alcohol. Wonderful.

Another Top 50 (#5) for the style. Draft at brewery. Hazy chestnut brown pour. Creamy tan cap leaves nice lacing. Sweet toasted malt aroma has notes of dank citrus and pine. First sip is intoxicatingly bittersweet and dank. Boozy vibes on the palate ring out. Notes of toffee and caramelized malt. A big beer for sure.
