What the brewers say

“Brewed with Simcoe, Idaho 7, Citra Incognito, Citra Spectrum.”

What our panel thought

“Chocolate and red fruit in the aroma. Dark roast notes and a clean, soft chocolate flavor. Tempered pine and herbal licorice bitterness in the background. Chocolate and dark fruit appear as it warms. Slightly sweet and roasty finish with a lingering bitterness. Enough complexity to keep it interesting. Mouthfeel is heavier but really keeps everything together, especially on later sips.”

What our editors thought

“Sweet oak and a touch of charred oak in the aroma, with a light nuttiness and darker toasted bread notes. Citrus bursts in the sip, with light chocolate notes, a touch of drying cocoa-powder bitterness, and a body that rides up to the full line but never feels excessive. Artfully balanced in the way its story unfolds through the aroma and flavor.”
