Drunk directly from 12 oz. brown bottle. Stamped Best by 03/01/18 (!) A: N/A S: Very light herbal/floral hop scent. Faint brown bread. T: Bitter piney/floral hops. Little malt flavor but slight woodiness. M: Resinous mouthfeel and finish with medium body and brisk carbonation. O: Not bad nor noteworthy however for Caribbean stuff this is somewhat exceptional. I think the Pale Tourist is more flavorful even at 5.2%.

Draft at the brewery. Black with a mocha head. The aroma has roast malt, cocoa and coffee. The flavor is very well balanced and features a nice play of the roast malt, coffee and chocolate notes. Delivered on a creamy, just sweet enough body.

Bottle purchased at the brewery. Pours mostly clear amber with a quickly falling near white head. The aroma has juicy malt, biscuit and fruity esters. Not much in the flavor department. Neither sweet nor bitter so I guess it’s well balanced. No crisp hops. So cold wet and refreshing. Decent body.
