This is tasty! Great tropical taste but still true to gose style. Starts sweet and finishes with gose tang…yet still some lingering pineapple. On the sweet side for a gose but still in style.

Tropical. Medium body. Light haze. Crushable. I get the pineapple tang but also has solid citrus and fruit notes in a non-juicy way.

Super tasty. “Spicy” is uh…an overstatement…but “spicy inspired” is accurate. Smooth. Sweet. Slight punch from spice flavors. Not the hot (jalapeño) Mexican chocolate I expected but better than that in many ways. Great mouthfeel, as expected from KBS.

Thick bodied strong ale. Rich, sweet, smooth. Barrel aging adds a good bit of flavor. Semi-easy drinking for the ABV.

John S

Big ginger flavors with some spice and sweet at the end. Barrel flavors are fairly light. Lots of spice on the nose. A little boozy. More an imperial ginger/spice beer than a barleywine outside the ABV. Doesn’t have the thick malt sweetness of most bw.

Almost pastry stout level sweet. Maltier backbone. Moderate bourbon flavors. Mostly French toast.

John S

Aged. Still smooth, sweet, chocolate, boozy, thick. Maple is there but not dominate.

John S

Gifted from a friend. Lighter than I remember and very light in carbonation. Dominated by the bourbon barrel. Thin and a little sweet.

John S

Bottled 14 months ago. Smooth. Rich. Chocolate (fudgy). With barrel accents and finish. The nose is pure fudge. Black as night. Liquid bourbon fudge. Very rich. Coffee is buried in there but you can find it.

John S

Primarily a fruit beer with a Belgian finish. Sweet and fruity with dry, semi-tart finish. Full body.

John S

Tasty. Strong coffee and chocolate with bourbon barrel finish. Smooth and creamy for an imperial brown ale.

Pretty confusing. I had to remind myself it was beer once or twice. Pretty sweet. Drinks as much like a “[insert some sweet alcohol] and coke” as anything.
