Goleta, CA
What Our Editors Thought
“Roasted dark-malt aroma with a slight caramel respite. Energetic but extra light in the sip, with a slightly acidic twang that’s more noticeable due to the light body. Incredibly drinkable, with just enough and not too much flavor.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Pleasant caramel-coffee aroma; slight toffee overwhelmed by cocoa powder and light chocolate. In the flavor, some bitter chocolate with lightly burnt roast that transitions to a slight lingering sweetness. Modest bitterness balances the sweet dark caramel and coffee flavors. High-quality interpretation.”
What the Brewers Say
“Approachable chocolaty goodness.”
