We start February with a 2022 beer from Firestone Walker, Houses in Motion.
“…whiskey barrel-aged wheat wine ale with coffee, cocoa nibs, and cinnamon,”
Boy do the whiskey aromas blast when you open the cap on this 2022 beer. It pours a bubbly dark red color. My initial reaction is not coffee or cinnamon but German chocolate cake. Getting coconut and whiskey. There is sweetness abounding here. As it warms, you get some tiny bits of coffee and tinier bits of spice. By the end there is a little brown sugar.
