Released 11/28/20; drank 12/11/20 @ the Yarchives.

Black/brown appearance.

A violent pour yielded a nice khaki head; strong lace.

Dill pickle, fresh earth, cream, mild orange peel & faint whiskey heat in the nose.

Creamy, medium thick mouthfeel.

Dill pickle, dark chocolate, orange peel & faint cream flavors.

Whiskey heat emerged as this warmed. A lot going on here, but it is abrasive and the barrel overwhelms the base beer entirely. Not one I'll return to.
