Patrick Pfister is drinking a Harvest Ale (Matured In Lagavulin Whisky Casks) (2022) by J.W. Lees & Co.

I'm so happy that this appears to be a mainstay from Lees because this is top 10 for me. The sweet/damp/smoky/earthy flavors of the peat, combined with caramel and toffee, is absolutely heavenly. Mind blown as to what peat can impart on beer.

Harvest Ale (Matured in Calvados Casks) (2012) by J.W. Lees & Co.

Jonathan Stutzman is drinking a Harvest Ale (Matured in Calvados Casks) (2012) by J.W. Lees & Co. at Herr Stütz Haus

Yes a vintage 2012 beer. Risked buying this bottle a couple weeks ago. Likely my first Calvados Cask. Poring, it has a nice boozy aroma. Rather smooth taste, definitely boozy at 11.5%, sweet, no carbonation, and hints of apple and sweetness. Cost ~ $10.

Purchased at Hop, Cask And Barrel

Opens with a definite pssst and pours a dark mahogany with a light and ephemeral head. Clear pour with no obvious sediment. Some residual carbonation gives a little tickle on the tongue. 👃 is boozy dates, Marsala and Christmas cake. Flavours of....
