Hardywood Speculoos Cookie Butter Beer (Picked up at Trader Joe's). A 1 of 4. Look, this is well made and has no obvious faults. It's just absolutely not for me -- the vanilla, intense sweetness, and expected speculoos notes just feel extraordinarily out of place. If this were a stout with some roast, it might work better, but I'm not even sure it would. It's just weird.
