SpindleTap Brewery Aceite Crudo

“Sweet, rich aroma of coffee, cherry, plum, chocolate, dragon fruit. Low floral alcohol. Strong malt flavor of coffee, chocolate, and toast. Finish slightly sweet. A refreshing counter-example to the overly complex, sweet, adjunct-laden stouts of the day, this is an exceedingly well-made throwback. Big. Roasty. Creamy. Nothing fancy, but beautifully balanced and rich. Complexity for days without harsh edges. Yes, please.”
