4 oz. draft sample Copenhagen Beer Celebration, Boston, 23 September, 17. Raven feather black color. Aroma has a lot of coffee, vanilla, and roasted barley. My god! The flavor has coffee for days! Vanilla, coffee, and chocolate is meld well together. Yeah, the booze is lightly noticeable, not matter, the flavor is just awesome.

I decided to end my notes on CBC 2017 with this beer. At this point In the day I was light up like an evergreen tree on Christmas. Wonderful stout to pair with some Belgian waffles and reflect on the day.

4 oz. sample CBC, Boston, 23 September, 17. Real nice aroma of simcoe pine, floral spruce tips. Classic West Coast style IPA. Pine and spruce tips are the main players here. Mild honey malt and light tropical hints hiding in the background. Moderate bitterness.
