Half liter bottle by Facebook auction from the brewery. Shared at the April 2025 PS tasting, 4/12/2025. Slightly hazy orange. Aroma of funk, leather, green hops, grass, leaves, olive juice. Wow. Taste is tart fruits, brett, oak. Slick, lingering tartness.

Bomber, 4/11/25. Hmm. This sounds like it would fit with Wis. Stat. 944.20. Yeah, sorry, WI defense attorney here. Black, thin brown head, average retention. Aroma of roast, chocolate, minerals. hint of whisky. Taste is roast, chocolate, mint, minerals, oak, raisin, whisky. The whisky is pretty mild. Well balanced.

Halt liter bottle, 4/10/25 (or really way too late the night of 4/9). Is this a new brewery? Brewver is down right now. We will see soon. And for the record I am 100% pro Ukraine in the recent Soviet-ish Occupation. This beer name didn't age well. Inky black, thin brown head (despite a vigorous pour). Good retention. Aroma of roast, nuts, raisin, cocoa, and a bit of cardboard-ish oxidation. Taste is chocolate, roast, soy, cherry, nuts. Well balanced, mild booze. A little old but it stands up. New brewery! Brewery # 2572, USA # 1968, Indiana # 40.

Sampled 4/7/25. Not sure how but probably a bottle shared by one of the McFleshman's regulars, cause we roll like that. Very dark brown, thin tan head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, cola, oak. Taste is roast, cherry, chocolate, whisky. Thin for style.
