Amazing that this is 9.5% because it's so easy to drink a 750mL bottle. It really is wine quality. I have a hard time identifying the nose on beers but it reminds me of being inside the cow feed silo as a kid. It smells like late summer harvest left to ferment.
It's a very clean taste of...... Wheat grass? — 10 months ago
Nose has sour apricots grated against musty old cellar barrels, fully saturated oak staves, bushel of ripe peaches, burnt caramel and brackish water.
Palate is fully loaded with citrus peel, grapefruit pith, peach peel, sour oak chips and tart apple cider.
What a performance today, just outstanding, amazing color, really improved with a couple more years of hiding.

So-much-fruit. Glad we drank this young. — 4 years ago
Unbelievable. First time. So complex, so funky, so smooth, so fruity, it’s almost chewable. Totally meets expectations. One of the best beers in the world. As it warms and evolves, the amount of fruit is bonkers. Berries, plums, apples, grapes, juniper. Wow!!! Bottled 12/06/21 — 8 months ago
I mean where’s so much hyped smoke there’s got to be legitimate fire. — 5 years ago
