What Our Editors Thought

“Smoked stone fruit and a bit of tire rubber offer a sweet-funky push-pull in the nose, but the fruit notes in the flavor run unchecked.”

What Our Panel Thought

“The aroma has almost a raw cereal–like quality that almost suggests a dry, funky rice wine. Light malty sour in the flavor with vinous notes and leather, then woody, spicy notes express as it warms.”

What the Brewers Say

“MT3 spontaneous beer aged an additional year in a single rye whiskey barrel.”
