  • Expect fruit flavors like cherry, pear, apple, and orange, but also deep notes of milk and dark chocolate, vanilla, toasted almond, and lighter notes like lemon peel, cinnamon, and some pepper spice.

  • 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?

House Review
  • 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?
