Poured from 473mL can (thanks Oakes). Hazed gold with small white head. Citrusy hops, biscuity malt, bland, a bit boring, meh.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 28 May 2026). Clear blonde gold with small white head. Quite clean, mild lemony citrus and pine hops, body is a bit light for a DIPA, decent, but a touch subdued.

8.5/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 9 Texture 8 Overall 9
Poured from 375mL bottle (batch #3). Near black with minimal beige head. Very nice bourbon barrel forward, lightly hopped American-style barley wine, rich and boozy, Very nice, but not worth the cost at all, some cognac comes out as it warms up.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Clear-ish amber brown with small off white head. Touch of sweet vinous brandy notes with feint figgy caramel malt, light body, abv is very hidden, overall quite simple and mild, but okay.
