Bottle. This beer is simply amazing. The nose is a little spicy. Poured a dark brown with a thick foamy head. The taste is very smooth. There is no way to tell this is 9.2% abv. Finish leaves your mouth totallywanting more.

Deep brown pour with red edging. Thick tan foamy clingy head. Deep earthy scent with mixed herb and spice. Cery spicy taste. Some malts. Strong alcohol taste in the initial flavour but it fades quickly. The Alcohol taste rises again in the finish. High carbonation, actually a bit fizzy. Hints of caramel and maybe chocolat in the finish. Extremely good!

This is smoother and exactly like the 10 but without the punch of the alcohol that comes with the 10. It’s a darker version of it’s older brother. Deep dank Ruby with all the plum, raisin, citrus, grass, and brown sugar flavour... only a slight hint of any alcohol! Breathtaking!

Deeply sliky sweet and smooth but not overly comlpex. All of the fruit notes mergerd so as not to be distingiushable. Perfect for cheese.

Wonderful woody brown colour with a slightly creamy head and lacing. Many fruit tones. Complex and beautifully balanced. Great, great beer.

This is what you get when you spend most of your time on your craft! Brewing excellence... This stuff was undescribably good and it hit me like a Megaton Nuclear Warhead!
