Stunned to find a BIPA in Saino's. WTF! Pours deep brown towards black with dissipating beige/tan foam. Aroma: toasty malt, mild coffee, charcoal, some grass. Taste: light to moderate sweet & moderate+ bitter. The taste follows. Caramel, berries. Medium body with low-ish carbonation. Mildly dry finish.

Can online from HoTM. Pours murky ruby amber with beige head. Malty bready aroma, mildly funky, baked apple. Taste: malt, rye, caramel, bread, juniper, but mostly spruce. Another delightfully wacky, yet tasty bev from STF. More please!
