Bottled. A hazy deep red beer with a thin tan head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of alcohol, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of alcohol and fruit, leading to a drywoody and alcoholic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of gunhaver. Hazy amber golden with a small creamy beige head. Aroma of wood, caramel, alcohol and overripe fruit. Quite full-bodied with notes of fruit, caramel and wood. The finish is rather raw and unrefined bitter with quite some alcohol. 311008

22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy brown with a diminished off-white head. Mild wineous and spiced hoppy with a dark and mild roasted malty base note. Bitter and slight spiced flavoured with a solid caramel malty and dense hoppy note. Ends malty and slight spiced.

Hazy medium amber colour. Big nose with a hint of bourbon, lots of fat toffee and caramel malts. Not getting much barrel on the palate, but given how good knucklhead can be with its rich malts, I’m not going to sweat it.
