Bottle shared. Pours a deep brown with a finger of beige head that lingers. Dark cacao nib nose with some faint coconut aromas. Smooth on the palate and creamy, with coffee and chocolate...coconut is there, but fairly muted. Lingering chocolate on the finish. Not bad, but not as stellar as some of their other drops.

Bottle shared at Zack's Epic Tasting. Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of foam that lingers. Huge cinnamon forward nose with kitkat wafers...vanilla as it warms. Lots of creamy dark chocolate on the palate with more kitkat wafers and cinnamon. Barrel is there, but doesn't rear it's head until later. Smooth with lowish carbonation but adjuncts are really well done here. Stellar.

Bottle shared at Zack's Epic Tasting. Pours a hazy, murky deep orange gold with a thick head that dissipates. Big creamy guava forward nose with vanilla aromas as it warms. Smooth and creamy on the palate. More apricot and guava, lots of creamy lactose and vanilla. A little vanilla bean pod bitterness on the finish. Nice stuff.

Bottle 75 cl. Pours a murky, grayish opaque golden with an immensely lacing off-white head. Fresh, tropical melange aroma. Medium body, yet thick and smoothie-like texture, very juice with amazingly fresh tropical hop notes - and a hint of vanilla. Subtle bitterness - actually to the sweet side. But pleasant and complex - if itwasn't for that gray color... 240518

Bottle 75 cl. Pours a cloudy opaque grayish golden with a lively and lacing white head. Spicy, almost herbal hop aroma. Rich, fruity body, spicy hop blend with a fairly solid late bitterness. Feels almost thick and syrupy. 240518

Bottle 75 cl. Pours an opaque dark red with a sall, pink head. Nose has overwhelming maple syrup, actually overpowering both blueberries and the lacctic tartness - impressive!. Medium body, the blueberries coming out way more in the flavor and you sense the lactic Berliner base. It's tart and fruity and a little sweet. One of the weirdest blends of flavors I've had for a very long time, but it kinda works! Impressed. 240518

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Thanks Joe B! Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of foam that dissipates quickly. Lots of cacao nib and vanilla in the nose with some whopper/kit kat-like aromas. Fairly smooth on the palate, with some cacao nib bitterness, coffee and freshly picked mint flavors. Finish has chocolate milk and cacao/coffee bitterness paired against each other well.
