KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge Harms

The coffee on the nose especially is absurd. But coffee, fudge with maple on the backend & some Bourbon oak and vanilla undertones. I don't care what people have to say about founders nowadays. If you blinded this you would love it. Very rich & balanced.

Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA Harms

This is flora,l fruity, syrupy fantastic goodness. Have to rate it if I because of the depth of flavor and the uniqueness. The 17% also helps.

Sweet Repute Harms

#38. Impressive. The hops do add a nice floral note, but I feel like it does take away from the traditional caramel and butterscotch flavors that are usually at the forefront of a wheatwine. I do get maple, oak tannins and hint of bourbon as it warms.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa (2021) Harms

Nemesis (2021) Harms

For a American IPA which tends to be a lot more hoppy it's very good. Notes of toffee, honey, toasted malt, citrus and pine. At 11.2% this is definitely a sipper It's good to have an American barley wine again. It's been a while. They should barrel age it

Utopias Barrel - Aged World Wide Stout (2021) Harms

Nice port & sherry fruit notes of raisins, plum, figs and cherry on the nose and palate. The Utopias barrels definitely complement the nice roasty espresso, caramel, chocolate vanilla with beautiful oak tannins throughout. Great mouthfeel and viscosity.

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter Harms

Nice caramel, toffee and vanilla sweetness complemented by a fruit bouquet of plum, dates, raisin, candied cherry and orange bitters. All rounded out with some dry-oak and bourbon undertones throughout.
