3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: JUL 6, 2010 gusher. dark nutty brown giant fluffy light brown head.
boozy spicy sweet malty, caramelly aroma. Rather well blended.
flavor is distinctly sour, citrussy, bitter from spices, Not sure if the sourness is inteded, it do come off a bit more citrussy than a brune would do. Could be an infection, but if so, at least not the worst one. Wonder what kind of bacteria could survive 9% alc beer environment.
Tried another bottle. similar taste. It probably is intended to be salty, soy sauce,citrussy , spicy. Strange beer.
