Can from Stacks. Cloudy yellow, small, foamy, white head. Aroma of ripe mango, peach, orange popsicle, cheese, dough, hashish, white pepper, gin. Taste has sweet mango, grape & orange popsicle in a sherbetty & doughy malt body, a bit cheesy with a hint of bitter shallot. Floral & light peppery hoppy finish, lingering dank hashish, juicy stone fruit and warming gin-like alcohol. Medium to full body, fluffy texture, soft carbonation. Intense and sweet but the dankness makes up for it too. Very cool.

T: sweetish melon & mandarin, bitter pine & grass.

Falls into place tastewise, but could have had even more punch & body.

Bottle from Hopduvel. Cloudy black, stable, foamy, beige head. Aroma of cognac, wood, fondant (sauce), leather, shoe polish, teriyaki. Taste has sweet fig, prune & pear in a thick dark-chocolatey, pecan-nutty malt body with a hint of umami black olive and early cognac. Soft earthy hops in the finish, lots of cognac present now, next to a woody effect and a touch of coffee. Not necessarily boozy cognac, but very dominant and battling with the malt profile. Full body, thin oily texture, soft carbonation. Another decent addition to Brambrass' BA range, but just slightly less well-structured.
