House Review
Nose:
Heavy baking spice. Spicy and rich, the nose is full of fruit like apple and pear. Pepper, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, maple. Lots going on.
Taste:
Spicy and rich here, as well. The palate is packed with baking spice, maple, honey, toffee and some pipe tobacco. Fruity still,
with pleasant apple butter and baked pear.
Finish:
Short to medium but rich and loaded with baking spice, dessert and fruit.
Overall:
This is a really great release from Still Austin. It’s big and rich without requiring a bruiser ABV, and it’s a really lovely pour.
