Bottle at WTF 6. Pours a bright ruby with medium pinkish white head that lasts. The aroma is strong cherry skin, funk, oak. Slick body, jammy cherry, nice tartness, light funk, enjoyed this.

750ml bottle pours out golden topped with a white fizzy head. Nose is nice stone fruit big funky wild barrel. Taste is more of the tart stone fruit a little honey sweetness and barrel funk.

Bottle thanks to Raf! Pours clear amber golden with a small white head. Notes of sweet white grapes, champagne, oak, vanilla, citrus, lemons, stone fruits, elderflower, lightly eatery, pear. Fuckin insanely good! What's with these low ratings? One of the best AWAs I've had in a long time!

Bottle 1/208. Pours dark reddish copperbrown, deep purple. Small pink head isnt stable. Smell is fruity , sharp tartness. Some oak. Taste is sharp, mineral, fruity, intense, sour, oak. Much to sharp and much to sour to even remotely speak if any balance. The beer isnt bad though, its enjoyable. Could use more balance to really shine.

750 mL bottle, shared by Albert. Pours a hazy, light yellow color, with a pretty big, frothy, white head. The aroma is basically Sunny D, with some dusty attic, leather, white wine, and vanilla. Not very sweet, with a mellow tart flavor. Light body, with an acidic, thin palate. This is a fun, well made, and citrusy sour. Quite tasty.

A couple small pours directly from the Woodford barrel. Black, with lots of tan bubbles. The aroma is smooth, lovely espresso, cocoa, maple syrup, chalk, rum, and vanilla. Sweet and boozy, with a light, sharp bitterness. Very heavy body, with a syrupy, decadent mouthfeel. This is a big, boozy, dessert-like stout. Luxurious and delicious.

5 oz. pour at the closing party. Pours a cloudy, yellow-ish orange color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is lemon peel, orange pulp, pine sap, and whole grains. Sweet and citrusy, with a sharp bitterness. Light to medium body, with a sharp, acidic, and clean palate. This is clean, aromatic, and balanced IPA. Nice.

5 oz. pour at the closing party. Pours black, with a thin, tan head. The aroma is distinctly toasted coconut, with milk chocolate, a bit of salt, and toffee. Sweet and decadent. Heavy body, with a sharp, thick mouthfeel. This is a nice desert beer. Thoroughly enjoyable.

5 oz. pour at the closing party. Pours black, with a small, tan head. The aroma is baking chocolate, rye whiskey, black bread, and chicory. Sweet and malty, with a mellow bitterness that balances well. Heavy body, with a chalky, syrupy, and velvety feel. This is a rather subdued and balanced stout, for the ABV. Lovely.
