Lighter in style than the 2015 and infinitely more complex, partially due to age, but more likely due to a better recipe in this vintage.

Deeper and darker every year, how will this vintage age?

These mags really do get better and better. Light on the feet at 5.5ABV and super drinkable even with spruce added. Merry Christmas y'all.

This year's recipe throws off expressive roasted nuts and Halloween candy bag aromas. Garnet at the edges, with appetizing carbonation and a roasty malt body and subtle nutmeg spice sachet finish. More boldly structured and better for it
