  • A really good malt that’s packed with flavor and has just the right amount of oak. This reminds me of a Stranahan’s single malt, which is a big compliment. Well done, Coors! Who woulda thunk it?

  • Nose:

    Bright, pleasing nose with loads of funky malt character that’s very welcome. Big orange pulp, plum and blackberry vibe, plus balsamic, gingerbread, white pepper and roasty coffee

  • Taste:

    Super malty palate and a really nice mouthfeel. Sassafras, Balsamic, blackberry jam, tobacco, leather, anise, clove, dark chocolate and a sharp bite of tannin.

  • Finish:

    The finish leads with a cornucopia of spices: cinnamon, pepper, powdered ginger, anise, sassafras and a touch of cilantro. From there it segues into a profile of dark chocolate and coffee

  • Overall:

    A really good malt that’s packed with flavor and has just the right amount of oak. This reminds me of a Stranahan’s single malt, which is a big compliment. Well done, Coors! Who woulda thunk it?
