What the brewers say

“An intense black schwarzbier aged on amburana wood.”

What our panel thought

“Aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, milk chocolate, and marshmallow. Molasses and licorice on the nose, along with chocolate milk and espresso cookies. A shake of cinnamon sprinkled on top of a toasted slice of brown raisin bread. Big, bold body with flavors to back it up.”

What our editors thought

“Sweet nose with amburana’s vanilla-cinnamon spice. Hefty body in the sip with layers of deep malt, but the spice, roast bitterness, and burnt toast note only allows the sweetness small side glances.”
