  • Like most BA stouts produced here in AZ I don't get much barrel or thiccc mouthfeel which is disappointing for a 2 year aged beer, but I doubt Fate or any other breweries out here are getting many quality barrels. Still, not sure what the barrel contributed other than maybe more sweetness
  • Doesn't appear to be a plan in place to can this, draft only thus far

Solid C+ imo
Sucks not having to-go options, but thanks for checking.

And yeah, I would drink something like a Belching Beaver Peanut Butter Stout before drinking the regular Candy Bar.... King Sized is a lot bolder and I really enjoy the flavor, but yeah not a ton of barrel.



If you're ever at the south Scottsdale location, there's a small place called Rift that usually has some nice things on tap and a lot of cans/bottles ---> https://www.riftbaraz.com/product/bo...&category_id=2
