Commercial Description:
For 14 wonderful years, we have been creating libations for ourselves in the hope that some others out there would share our eccentric palates and support us. Many thanks to all of you who do! Here is yet another quirky brew: a very dark and different, dry-hopped ale. Style? hard to say, you decide. Just expect massive molasses maltiness, limitless fruits on the nose and an imposing floral & zesty dry-hop finish. Peace to all and follow your dreams!
1.090 OG, 60 IBUs.

Very dark mahogany color that lets just a little light through. Thick, rocky tan head that leaves plenty of lace behind. Interesting aroma, toasty/roasted malts with undertones of cocoa powder and caramel are predominant with piney hops in the background. Buttery caramel flavors fade into grapefruit zest and a lingering pine/spruce bitterness. Aroma alludes to more maltiness than what is actually tasted. Flavor is definitely dominated by hops.

They weren’t kidding about massive maltiness. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Malt dominates the aroma with some dark fruit, I didn’t sense as much hops, but it is an older bottle. Malty throughout and it was a little creamy as well. Decent brew, almost a little too sweet for me.

Thanks to Pollo. Pours a dark brown color with creamy head. Medium to heavy bodied. Malty and sweet, fruit of bananas. It is a stomach/heart warmer. Delicious.
