I stopped by the tasting room for the first time in a while and tried Darkstar and some of its variants. I don't know if these beers are for me anymore. Came off a bit too sweet for my liking and heavy on the rye notes.

I also tried the adjunct-free barleywine and wasn't feeling it either. I wanted a barleywine that was slightly sweet, malty and with some dried fruit notes to it. What I got was the liquid equivalent of the toffee candy they sell at See's.

 

I am also interested to know about scramjet.

 

Scramjet was one of the best BL beers i've had all year. They do peanut butter so well. This wasn't overly sweet as some people might be worried about, was like a dark chocolate Reese's peanut butter cup.

 

I had the opposite experience. Tasted like that peanut butter powder and way too sweet chocolate flavor and that's it.

That seems to be their trajectory and what the target audience likes.
The people i had it with enjoyed it, though
It was definitely not Dark Chocolate . I've never had a Reeses Dark Chocolate cup but they are really the bottom of the barrel when it comes to any kind of chocolate quality.
