Commercial Description:
The brewers of Anderson Valley had to conjure the High Priestess of Fermentation to help them formulate and create this rare hand-crafted elixer. It is luxuriant, smooth, more that a little wild, and at 10% alcohol, it's bound to raise your spirits. Open the Bottle and greet the High Priestess. You are worthy.

Poured a bright clear orange/copper color with a small quickly receding off white head. The nose was fruity and spicy with sweet cloves, some white grape and citrus notes as well. The taste starts sugary and yeasty with buiscuit. Green apple and white grape come in next with a spicy dryness in the end. The beer finished with warming alcohol that reminds me the beer is 10% abv. This was a little too boozey for me. This one really kicked my ass. Be warned, your first one of the night may be you last.

Deep amber color pour with a big foamy head that lasted throughout. Aroma of apricots and apples, yeast, spice and definite alcohol. Flavor is similar. Lots of sweet fruit up front with the spice coming next and then a big alcohol bite on the finish. Very tasty, but the alcohol starts to overpower after a couple glasses.

Pours amber with a very thin head that disappears quickly. Aroma of apple with a touch of honey. Taste at first is very fruity, apples and pears, mixed with bread. Turns sour in the aftertaste. Booze is apparant. Very average offering, would try it again though.

From a bottle poured a dark orange-amber body (dark for a trippel). Sweet, sticky, nutty, boozy. Syrupy and cloying. Alcohol not well masked. Not a very enjoyable trippel. Rather disappointing.

In the bomber bottle from Roof Brothers in Paducah. This bottle was aged for four years. Pours a hazy butterscotch color with a quickly dying white head. This beer has an amazing apple aroma. It smells like it just might be real sour, but it is not. There’s big alcohol heat to this. Super fruity: pears, apples, and homebrew cider in the flavor. A medium sweetness flows through it, but I detect a slight splash of diacetyl. Quite good. Plenty of esters. I like it.
