Good beer a little more on the sweet side for me. I’ve heard that 2 years is the sweet spot for aging this beer. I’ll definitely be trying the beers that I’ve been aging at year 1 and 2. So far a little more overrated but that’s okay it keeps us beer nerds wanting to collect.

Tap @ CBC 2013.
Pours utterly, completely opaque black with a small, creamy, beige rim of foam. Aroma has roasted malts, chocolate, vinious, cocoa and white chocolate. Very little soy sauce. Medium carbonation, lovely dry and oily mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, light sticky, some chocolate, coffee and a bit of smoke. A very dry finish balances the sweetness very well. Cocoa, coffee and light peppery bitterness with a slight vinious touch.

From tap at CBC. Reddish dark brown with a lasting frothy dark brown head. Aroma is sweet roasted malt with notes of licorice, ground coffee, chocolate and dried fruit.
