Saint Arnold Divine Reserve #4
Brewer: Saint Arnold Brewing Company
Style: Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy
Alcohol Content: 9.5%

Description:
This is a Wee Heavy that one of our brewers has been working on for a couple of years and the final results are well worth the wait.
The color is deep ruby on its way to black with bright clarity (especially considering it is unfiltered) and a thick, tan head. It has a nose of Irish coffee with hints of peat. The body is sweet and creamy--not thin, not heavy. Almost refreshing, if a beer this big can be described as such.
Caramel malt, smoke, coffee and orange come in and out of focus several times as the beer moves across the palate, then it finishes with a light spiciness. We again used our St. Arnold yeast which added a nice layer of complexity to this already multifaceted beer. Enjoy at 45°F or warmer.
[Retired by CapFlu. Suggestion from Enniskellin that this beer hasn't been readily available since March 2007.]
