What Our Editors Thought
“Light meat smoke with cherry and apple notes plus a punchy roast. The sip is loud and brash, with cocoa and just a hint of softening sweetness to pull it together.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Assertive coffee, dark roasted malt, and a hint of smoke punctuate the aroma. The flavor introduces sweeter dark- chocolate notes that complement the bitter roast with a touch of sweet herbal hops. Light and crisp, it finishes clean with a pleasant lingering coffee-like note, reminiscent of a fine cold brew.”
What the Brewers Say
“Floor- malted pils, chocolate rye, dehusked dark malts.”
