Yes! bottle #068 .. . This ended the tasting and was a true treat .. this is a gem! .. . Pours a murky caramel colour, light head .. . a sax affair for sure .. . light tartness, leather, caramel, sweet barnyard and tobacco flavours .. . good stuff, quite enjoyable and stoked to have had the privilege to have tried it.. .

It's a simple question Dr, would you eat the moon if it were made of ribs?

I don't know how to answer that.

It's not rocket science, just say yes and we'll move on.

Big humongo friggin 1.5L bottle (#121) shared by Robert very generously at the SSSSLT, what a guy! The pour was amber with a nice thin head, that although thin, had good retention. The aroma was tart, funk, oak, some fruity cherries or apples. The flavor followed the aroma, tart fruits (cherries most prominent), some underlying good darker Belgian malts typical of a Flemish Brown, oak, and some light funk and slightly soured vinous (pinot?) grape notes. Mouthfeel was light, dry, acidic, so drinkable, not even close to a mouth pucker-er, really loved this beer. What a wonderful brew, go get yo-self some! (I should have bought a bottle for myself a couple of weeks ago, bad economy or not.) Thanks, Robert, for sharing!
