What the brewers say

“Floor- malted pils, chocolate rye, dehusked dark malts.”

What our panel thought

“Assertive coffee, dark roasted malt, and a hint of smoke punctuate the aroma. The flavor introduces sweeter dark- chocolate notes that complement the bitter roast with a touch of sweet herbal hops. Light and crisp, it finishes clean with a pleasant lingering coffee-like note, reminiscent of a fine cold brew.”

What our editors thought

“Light meat smoke with cherry and apple notes plus a punchy roast. The sip is loud and brash, with cocoa and just a hint of softening sweetness to pull it together.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Burial Beer Co. Pitiless Indifference

“Oaky nose; vanilla, caramel, coffee, toast. Flavor is pleasant mix of bread crust, chocolate malt, light toffee. Vinous wood carries into the finish, drying. Complex without being a performance piece.”

Roaring Table Brewing Elizabeth

_Brett_ dominates aroma with wood, leather, light fruit, oak-vanilla, and a fresh, piney, spicy-hop edge. Sour flavor, with hops trending toward lemon-citrus. Rounded finish. Not pushing any boundaries, but well executed. Is this beer really better for having _Brett?_

Good Word Brewing & Public House Coastline Pils

“Toes both lines with pleasant herbal-like Noble hop notes and American ‘c’ hop characters—grassy, citrus—to supplement. Little punchy sulfur brings the package together wrapped tightly in clean execution and overall drinkability.”
