On tap pours out black topped with a tan head. Nose is nice big coffee and a well balanced chocolate sweetness. Taste is more of the nice sweet chocolate covered coffee beans very nice.

Single from Whole Paycheck. Glass mug. More dusty than hazy, pale gold pour, very sticky lace. Fruity white grapefruit pith, orange, dust. Smells great. Weird weedy soapy slurry, ugly greens, strong & lingering bitter pith. Super leafy & herbal. Protein shake frothy, strong for the abv. Bleh.

16 oz. can thanks to tfontana. Thanks for the opportunity! The aroma is shows me Apricot, herb and slight malt. In the flavor the mosaic hop seem to rule. A really strong amount of herb and pine like hints. The Nelson is almost totally hidden here. Also a bit more malty then I prefer.

Can pour from Friar Tuck, Crestwood. It's an opaque black with light sparkle, finger-width beige head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is coffee, lactose, chocolate, roasted sweet malts. Taste is strong sweet coffee and lactose. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, aroma bests taste. A little thin. Pretty good.

Can (049 2 on bottom of can—4/9/22?) pour from Total Wine & More, Brentwood. It’s a lightly hazy gold with nice sparkle, 2-finger width off-white head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is lemon, grape and mild pineapple. Taste is strong pineapple, lighter citrus and mild white grape. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with smooth texture soft carbonation and crisp finish as taste with light bitterness. Overall, decent strength and complexity but these hops can produce something stronger. Date code (if interpretation is accurate—didn’t occur to me until just now) may mean serious hop decay so likely even better fresher.

12 oz. can. Pours a clear, straw color, with a big, foamy, white head. The nose is crackers, wet grass, chalk, and lavender. Sweet and malty, with a light, crisp bitterness. Light and effervescent. Bright, clean, and refreshing.

Bomber bottle. dated 2021. Pours an opaque dark brown color with a foamy tan head that has fair retention. The aroma is big and bold with whiskey, vanilla, cocoa, raisins and anise. The taste is complex with bourbon, vanilla and cocoa in the forefront, then giving way to coffee and a trace cinnamon. The palate is smooth and oily. Finishes long and sweet. Overall: Very nice--ten years ago I might have thought it comparable to dark lord, but today its just a decent impy stout. The bar certainly has been raised over time.

Pour is more of a cloudy gold with a large white head. Aroma is melon and generic malt. Flavor is more melon a wee bit of citrus and more dry generic malt. This was a bit weak for this style.
