Tasting the store pick "Blackout" from the Rural Inn in Indianapolis.
N: sweet, caramel and maple syrup, hints of raspberry and rye...almost like a spicy Capri-sun???, herbal notes of honeysuckle and mint. A few drops of water brings out malt and cocoa
P: very woody - fresh oak, and walnuts, dark chocolate and cinnamon mid palate with hints of mint throughout.
F: hotter than expected, but bitter chocolate and wood notes linger with pepper flavors that last a loooooooong time. This one lingers!
Very interesting, complex flavors. Not for casual drinking unless diluted slightly or in a cocktail. But a wonderful flavor profile and a finish lasting for ever.
