Can. Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, good fine crispness. Very light malts bring a pleasant light sweetness. Mild hop skunk leads to lots of cooling pine. Sweet tropical fruits, a little mango and pineapple identifiable. Trace of sherbet. Cooling pine finish brings modest hop spice. Spicy linger. Comes together very well indeed. Lovely light but very hoppy IPA.

12oz can. Had no idea what this brewery is or anything more than it was a $2 9%abv impy stout. Pours dark brown, almost black, small head. A very mild impy despite being 9%, and full of adjuncts. No acrid black malts, no mineralness, low acidity, and no overbearing coffee. So many negatives not present. Aroma has the cocoa nibs more than coffee. Coffee is mild and just an accent to the beer. Mild and light earthy malts, even a little boggy, light sweetness. Flavor is xcocoa, light coffee brownie. No bigness, nothing extreme. Wowza what a beer.

Rich dark brown coloured body with a two centimetre tall light brown-head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and coffee with a very earthy and almost mushroomy scent along with some light alcohol notes. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong rich roasty flavours dominate with a little bourbon, oak, grain and malt along with oatmeal and some specialty grains. Aftertaste shows a bit more of the complexity with some vanilla, a lot of caramelised sugar sweetness and a touch of the bourbon and alcohol notes that permeate throughout, and make this well rounded! Overall, a nice and rich beer that shows some moderate complexity and depth, while hiding the alcohol pretty well and not showing up too much of the barrels, either. I sampled this ten ounce snifter on draught at Whole Foods in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia on 06-December-2016 for US$6,00 at the end of my driveway!
