Haven’t had this 2016. Dark sweet malt nose with a bit of smoke. Taste is same but with alcohol assertions. Leathery and dry and bitter by the finish.

Abv not listed on bottle but boy is this a winter warmer. Smoothes down the base beer intensely well.

Sure smells like a Utopias. Toffee sherry nose. And alcohol. Not your average IPA. I would call this a raisiny barleywine but DH wants to market it otherwise. Don’t down a 6 pack! Hops are hard to find.

My last bottle (I think) and it has aged very nicely. Dark brown color (what else?) bourbon chocolate nose. Sort of a baker’s chocolate taste with some light bourbon. A very nice liquid fudge. Some dryness

Sweet malt with hint of bitter coffee and some cinnamon in the back. Smooth

Nose is minty resiny hop. Taste is quite resiny (not piney) and maybe a hint of juniper leaves. Too much going on here. Want some (non poisonous) sumac, this is for you! Strange hybrid of red ale and grand cru, and it leans more red ale.

It has been 6 years since I sampled this high octane triple ipa. Resiny and hoppy nose. Syrupy too. Same notes in the taste. This beer needs to be sipped and savored. Some hints of vanilla

Light stuff and a nice beer for a hot day. Well balanced but could be crisper
