[1] Review by LordGorlock from Lynnwood, WA, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/20/2005 2:15:52 AM)
"This beer pours a cloudy blood red and brown color with little head and thin white lacing on the side of the glass. The aroma is heavily alcoholic, almost cognac-like with heavy bursts of vanilla, oak, wood, twigs and bread. There was a significant amount of alcohol burn in my nose from this beer coming in and well as going down. The flavor is very sticky and extremely alcoholic. Vanilla and butterscotch flavors dominate. Some hoppy bitterness mid-sip as should be expected with earthy undertones. Somehow well carbonated...but wow that alcohol is simply obtrusive!!! This needs a good 3-5 years of aging before its even possible for human consumption is my guess. I can actually feel my esophageal lining cringing in pain. Dry alcoholic finish...sticky and mildly sweet."
