750ml bottle, at home. Deep clear amber, High foamy khaki colored head. Aroma of pumpernickel bread, rye, cinnamon, brown sugar. Medium bodied, high carbonation. Lightly sweet underneath, very spicy with rye and black pepper flavors being noted, very dry (but not bitter) finish, with a complex sweet / spicy thing developing in the far finish. Toffee noted. Distant funk. Kind of like a rye saison. Very slight acidity. Very complex, a great offering.

Appearance: Pours hazy dark amber with a big long lasting beige head and good lacing
Aroma: Toasted malts, toffee, dark fruit and some alcohols
Taste: Malts, wheat, earthy and dark fruit
A nice sipper, grows on you. I didn’t like it at first but it got better as it warmed up.

Smak och doft choklad, malt, kakao, choklad, kaffe, vanilj. Smakar som en frisk och syrlig porter/stout, om detta är en svart IPA eller en saison råder det en viss förvirring om. FIn beska.

750ml bottle - $10.99 at Bullock’s Wine & Spirits in Woodstock, Georgia.

Appearance: Pours a rustic brown body, opaque, with a hefty layering of off-white suds.

Smell: Sugar-encusted, toasted dark bread, embodying a scent of caramel just as a blitz of tartish, ripe fruits, citrus, banana, and piquant phenolic spices (along with a drip of alcohol) pop in.

Taste: Moderately toasted bread crusts and fresh grains, with a sweetness of dark caramel and brown sugar. Has a herbaceous streak running through it from the hops, along with a little bitterness boosted by the suds. Soon, the wheat opens up, as does a little tempered roastiness. A portion of sawdust mingled with white peppercorns. Splash of fresh lemon juice. Hint of pear, prune, and bruised banana. Drying, zestful, tartish finish with some sweetness remaining.

Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-high carbonation.

Overall: A nice, respectable ale.

Pours a deep copper color with a three finger gaseous head. On the nose its got some nice round malts, earthy spice and a hint of dry graininess. The palate is similar with a nice doughy mouthfeel. Traces of honey, nutmeg and some undetectable earthy spice lead to a pleasant finish. Not bad and a solid fall offering.

Poured a dark amber color from a bottle. Nice aromas of caramel, light barnyard, some pepper and some earth. Flavors are the same with a light peppert aftertatse. Nice beer overall, glad I found this beer.
