Says bottled on 3/14/16 so it’s amazing the freshness expected, with just a little over a month shelf life. Nice aroma of fresh, sharp hops. Crisp hop bite with a bit of a sweet aftertaste that’s a bit tangy. If “dank” means halfway between resinous and fruity, that’s how I’d describe this.
Very nice strong hop aroma. Full mouth flavor of slightly sharp, slightly sweet hop flavor. Aftertaste is very strong hop resinous flavor, with a kind of grapefruit tartness that lingers.
Full of flowery hop aroma. Sharp hop sweetness with a moderate hop aftertaste that lingers. Can taste a slight watered-down flavor in the aftertaste. Overall, didn’t really care for the spicy hop flavor.
Strong coffee aroma. Somewhat crisp taste, like the cocoa is subduing the dark malt flavor. After that initial taste you get an alternating mix of dark chocolate and coffee flavors. Aftertaste is mostly coffee but with some hints of the alcohol level.
Label says release #10, which according to website was brewed on August 24, 2012 and I’m drinking it January 14, 2015. Says first aged in whiskey barrels them bourbon barrels.
