Snallygaster 2017. Light but full of flavors with nothing over the top. This is hard for a big barrel aged imperial stout. It was getting hot at this point and this was still working. 848315

On tap at the brewery and then in growler format. Pours a darker orange with some lightly lacing, white head. Nose is very nicely done, tropical fruit candies, orange, mango, light grass, mildly vegetal. Flavor is well balanced between candy sweetness, tropical fruit and citrus, oranges, tangerine here, melon too. Finishes mostly dry and bitter. One of the better beers in their catalog and a bit of a twist on standard Mosaic beers.

Some roast and some barrel. Pretty well balanced like walking on hay bales. Black pour with good head and lacing. Bittersweet finish. Tap at Snally.
