Good balance of dryness and sweetness, and just boozy enough. Not incredibly complex, but a very tasty brew. Thanks, Canada!

some sweetness/chocolatey but good balance, bourbon booze notes
hits at the end
may want to split can with someone. came with nice handcrafted glass. definitely a slow sipper/after dinner-desert drink. you will regret trying to drink in sessionable fashion, I guarantee 😜

very well done, the barrel aged booze is apparent but not overwhelming. deceptively smooth

Licorice and evergreen notes of juniper and spruce dominate, pushing the typical cocoa and oak notes to the background. It’s like a Russian imperial stout with a lighter viscosity.

Daily corona battle. This is chocolatey desserty deliciousness. Lotsa chocolate, balanced vanilla, plenty of prominent bourbon aged smooth. Finishes sweet with a boozy flourish. Mellows with warmth.
