Dark brown, excellent chocolate and barrel here, thick and rich. Wonderful chocolate and bourbon, soft and sticky, toffee, slight fruit. Actually not a ton of coconut but absolutely outstanding.

Black, dark brown head. Holy coconut, I mean a bit of chocolate but mostly coconut. Sweetish, good chocolate, lots of coconut and there’s coconut bits floating around in there. Excellent.

Quite pale, and hazy. Tart, mellow melon and a bit of lemon balm sort of character. A lean character with decent oak and some tartness.

Hazy, low bitterness, lots of fruity el dorado, hop resin, mandarins, the malts are a bit soft and gloopy but it’s good.

Brown and a bit murky, sweet, bourbon, nice dried fruit, toffee. Warming finish, touch of alcohol. This is sweet, rich, layered, decadent. fantastic. Syrupy magic. Sampled on release day - this is backlog.

Dark brown. Med head. Roasty, a touch boozy. Light fruitiness, big rich roast, chocolate. Light nuttiness. This is pretty good.

Opaque. Bubbky head, pale. Fruity, has a gin character, lots of bitterness herbs. This one’s okay.

Slight haze, no head. Some fruity hop. Somewhat boozy, that defines things. Allium and a little bit of orange as well. Not awful but it is a bit clunky. The kind of TIPA where you're better off with a dink pour.
