pretty sure this beer was well above 6.9%, but i didn't note it. poured dark ruby/mahagony-purty beer!aroma is complex and sweet with a hint of apple(?). the flavor is unique and can maybe be closest compared to an english barleywine, but actually better than most i've had. full bodied without being thick or cloying. if ths were bottled, i'd be searching it out. the flavor is truly special.
