Gnome on the Range

Travis B.

Funky orange, apricot, white tea, and honeysuckle. A little warm on the back end. Looking forward to see how it mellows/changes in the years to come.

Travis B.

Peach, vanilla, honey, pine, hints of a citrus tea. The depth of this is incredible with it being 6 years. Carmel/brown sugar on the back with good (strong) notes of pine. One of my favorite 120s I have had to date.

Travis B.

Brown sugar, carmel, golden raisen. Bourban (oaky) on the palate towards mid palate. Hop structure comes through on the finish. It has been a while since I have had a 120, but the barrel balances it nicely. Will have to try them side by side soon.

Travis B.

Hazelnut comes through (and the roasted coffee is delicious). Mouthfeel is creamy and finish lingers nicely.

Travis B.

Sweet mango candy with hints of heat from the pepper. To be honest... the nose is where the fruit is at, and it is more of tropical apricot or mango. Still enjoyable.

Travis B.

Cinnamon is pretty light and vanilla is a little overpowering. Abv is well hidden, doesn't need to be that high... would expect more from the mouthfeel.

Travis B.

Fresh roasted hazelnut coffee with a touch of chocolate. Yummy!

Travis B.

Orange, pineapple, carmel and piney resin. Good weight in the mouth with a nice finish.

Travis B.

I am going to start with this is typically my favorite beer. However, this year was a little quick and thin. The carmel piney notes were present up front and the touch of malt hit mid palate, but there wasn't the lingering flavors I expect.

Travis B.

I got orange cherry candy... wife got cherry lime. Either way very fruit forward.

Travis B.

Rum raisen fudge chocolate throughout. Additions of vanilla on the palate, but not sweet. Very enjoyable!

Travis B.

Maple right off on the nose. Great base stout with the additions and aging. Fudge and espresso to finish. Nice mouthfeel.

Travis B.

Vanilla carmel butter up front, followed by huge amounts of fudge on the back end.

Travis B.

From last night... good base stout. The coffee is slightly bitter, which may have taken away from the barrel. Still enjoyable.

Travis B.

Good raspberry for holding through. Abv is too present. 2015 bottle

Travis B.

Bitter chocolate, coffee, molasses. Finishes really dry. Everything matches what I would expect minus a thin mouthfeel.

Travis B.

Pineapple mango orange juice on the nose. Tropical notes follow through with added peach and vanilla. Subtle tannins hop finish.

Travis B.

Prune/date with molasses on the nose. Teriyaki and chocolate on the finish. Barrel has mellowed over time, which is nice.
