Thanks to GRG1313 for sharing this one at his tasting.
2014 vintage.
Pours an opaque black with a foamy dark khaki head that settles to wisps of film on top of the beer. Tiny dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of dark roasted malt, cocoa, green apple, and alcohol aromas. Taste is much the same with cocoa, char, caramel, and toffee flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of roast bitterness and an alcohol kick on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer that is tasty, but the green apple quality in the smell is a bit odd.
