On tap at Climbing Bines in Penn Yan, NY.

This one pours a fairly dark black color, with a small creamy head, and lots of lacing.

This smells mostly like coffee, with roast, chocolate, caramel, etc - it's had to discern the base porter underneath.

This is better than I expected. The base porter is not as thin as I expected, giving some roast and chocolate over which an avalanche of cold brew is layered on top. It's certainly a coffee bomb, and I can dig that sort of thing.

This is medium bodied, and pretty creamy, with a solid drinkability to it.

This is probably the best Climbing Bines beer that I've had - for the most part, they tend to be uninspiring to me.
