Thick sweet dark malt aroma. Very smooth and flavorful with a slight dryness like dark chocolate. Slight dark sweetness in the taste, but finishes very dry with just hints of mild malt flavor.
Amazing. These imperial stouts almost always have a bourbon burn- so much so, that I didn’t know you could make a 13% ABV imperial stout like this without bourbon!
Fresh, clean hop aroma. Taste is crisp with a good mix of hops, yeast, and a hint of caramel malt. Full flavor balance, but leaves palate fairly clear with just some lingering hoppiness.
Bright floral hop aroma. Crisp bite of hops that gets washed away by a caramel malt sweetness, followed by a yeast dryness. Clean, dry palate afterwards work done lingering hop bitterness in the background. Very refreshing.
Bright sweet hop aroma with caramel malt notes. Crisp hop bite with a fish of clean light caramel malt flavor that washes out the bitterness. Very tasty.
Nice sweet, sticky hop aroma. Flavor is crisp with hops, then cuts sweet and slick like there is some rye lingering in there. Nice afterwards of some caramel malt sweetness, yeast, and moderate hop bitterness. Easy drinking and very flavorful.
Tucson, AZ brewery. Canned 9/11/2023, drank on 10/14/2023. Can also had a best by date, that was 2 months after canning. They definitely want it drank fresh.
Nice sweet aroma of dark malt and bourbon barrel in the background. Slightly sweet taste at first, then seems to have a brief hop bite that quickly fades, then a mild roast coffee flavor enters in and lingers. Wow, amazing assortment of flavors, all very nicely done. The beer seems to have zero carbonation, but maybe that help makes it so smooth on the palate.
Sweet aroma of apricots/peaches. Taste is fairly smooth but has a little bitter edge just staying slightly in the background. Overall full palate of flavor that leaves mid fruit sweetness lingering. So delicious.
Aroma of dark sweet malt. Crispness of malt with a slight yeast sweetness that comes in to push the malt flavor away. Slightly crisp hop bite can also be detected up front. Very clean, with lingering hints of dark malt sweetness.
Rich, roast aroma, very nice. Flavorful, with no bitter bite, of dark malt. Very smooth with a good amount of dark malt flavor complexity. Finishes dry, with just hints of the dark malt lingering in the background.
Clean crisp aroma of hops and a bit of yeast sweetness. First taste slices through the palate cleanly with a hoppy edge and mild caramel malt sweetness right behind it. Finishes cleanly with a nice yeast flavor showing up, again supported by hop bitterness and mild caramel malt. Amazing flavor balance of all three with a full flavor punch that somehow doesn’t feel too heavy.
5 out of 5 stars.
