GTMW 2023. I had this early in the day and they poured far too much. Heavy and boozy, roasted malt, chocolate, rich, and there doesn't appear to be a barrel treatment.

The aromas are kind of basic, slightly old resin hops with some pale malt and a touch of citrus. Flavors are somewhat like nose and better. Hops seem fresher, citrus comes out a little bit more, add in a bit of pineapple. Good carbonation and slightly chewy body. Not bad.
