What Our Editors Thought
“Sea salt adds welcome complexity, sharpening dry dark chocolate and a firm bitter finish. Dark cherry, vanilla, and roast come together with a subtle savory note as the profile continues to evolve as it warms.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aroma of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, boozy roast. Roasted malt notes in the flavor create the impression of espresso and dark chocolate. As that fades, boozy warmth emerges and lingers into the decadent finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Infused with cacao and sea salt. Aromas of dark chocolate, vanilla, oak.”
