Nice big mug at brewery post rock climbing. Damn hit the spot. Light clear gold and frothy white head. Nose is crackery and sweet lemon biscuits. Tastes much the same with addition of hay and florals maybe watermelon water. Sweet finish. Snappy bodied.

Bottle. I’ve been saving this for something or other and here we are. Dark syrupy pour. Nose is this soy sauce and wine barrel. Taste of whisky, chocolate, soy sauce, fig, rum, molasses. Thick and syrupy body. Just ooze through and through. Very boozy.

Stopped in on drive back from Albany work trip. Tucked away at back of old manufacturing complex. Cool setting along river with refurbished brick. I like the vibe and bartender friendly. Decent selection mostly good. Not sure why the name change and weird since all signage and branding still Iron Duke. Pretty cool
