Bartender lady said that this was 15%, but if it is, it is the lightest 15% beer I’ve ever had, easily. Not heavy at all, it really seems like a pale-ish ale meets eisbock. I actually tapped the last keg of this stuff they made! Pretty cool.

on tap-pours an off white head. Deep amber color. Drinks like a barleywine, sweet, oaky.

Draught at Bristol. Pours mahagony with a medium foamy tan head and lined lacing. Malt (straw, cookie), yeast (dough) caramel molasses fruity-floral hop aroma with port and raisin notes. Caramel warm malt, port, and light hop flavor, moderately acidic with raisin and port notes. Medium bodied and fizzy, dry palate.

Sampled from draught at the Brewers Supply Group GABF Kickoff Party in Denver. Nice clear amber-chestnut body with a persistent filmy beige head. Unexpected but interesting sour cherry elements. Lots of oxidation. For an eisbock, this has dull malt qualities and significant bitterness. Medium-low sourness. Fair and interesting but almost seems like a funky mistake.
