Highland Park Brewery Barrel-Aged Griffith (10th Anniversary)

What the brewers say

“Coffee rounds out the flavor profile with blueberry, melon, and jasmine notes.”

What our panel thought

“Vanilla, coffee, dark chocolate in the aroma. Hint of dark fruit. Flavor is primarily dark chocolate, coffee, vanilla with bitter licorice, toffee, tobacco.”

What our editors thought

“Freeze-dried berries, light almond, lemon zest, and some coffee offer a unique aroma and carry through into the flavor with a tangy punch, while refined anise and roast low notes bolster the low end, and fresh top notes give a new twist to the familiar form.”
