I don't think this bottle was old, but it was still a bit bacony. Still rounding up for the price point.

Some might say this brewery showcases a bright array of flavors, a bold spectrum of vivid hues. Alas (looks at camera) I don't taste color.

The last "energy beer" I'll ever have. I'm not crying; it's my allergies.

Not sure this is 2016 - can't decipher the date code (I421 006140616B). Nearly flat. Some good flavors, but not great.

Very smooth but needs a bit more flavor. Still quite good.

First time having it from a bottle and it is not good. Bitter and alcohol heat mask all the good stuff. Didn't finish.

Nine years later, the last of my stash of original Four Loko. Caffeine, taurine, guarana! Look at that battery acid hue! Unpalatable as ever

Drinking through the cellar! Nose was really good, giving me hopes. But alas, still nothing special.

Going through the cellar, this was tonight's victim. Pretty good. Not sure if the year of bottle aging helped. Maybe?

For a cheap bomber, it ain't bad. Still kinda bacony. Not in an entirely bad way, but partially. Probably was super old when I bought it.

Working through the cellar. This is okay, but nothing special.

A bit bitter on the back end and not terribly complex. Feels kinda like cheating just to throw some maple in there, but it's tasty.

Can was almost two months old, but I think it was kept cold, so that shouldn't be too bad. Beer didn't have much to it.

Not bad. Some powdered sugar but mostly pleasant.

WTF, this is actively bad. Unpleasant vegetal stuff, kind of a chemical burn at the end. Yuck.

This is my first time having the non-BA version. I really liked it at first, but it got overwhelming by the end of 12oz. Stick w/small pours

Quite good. I'd like more deep flavor under it, but tbf that wouldn't really be very dubbelish. The spices and brandy work well, though.

Weird that this has no adjuncts. It's sweet and muddy like a pastry stout. If this is HC's base stout, no wonder their variants lean sugary.
