Captain Lawrence Golden Delicious

just got back from cl brewing shared with bastard dead guy and 2 others you can smell the apples when you crack it you can nose the hops right away under the apple the brandy is very up front on this. Alcohol warmth is very nice glad that i shared this one with 6 peps as a foot note sorry adam you missed another one i just couldnt wait

First off - what a phenomenal place with very friendly people and an incredible atmosphere. Truly top-notch.
Beer pours a cloudy medium copper with a nice mildly off white head with a HUGE aroma of the applejack liquor.
Immediate taste of apples, applejack, oak and their American tripel - as familiar with their extra gold.
This is an incredible beer, that has amazing potential to age. The only downfall is with the big alcohol taste that is present in the palate. However, this does not get in the way of the beer. I feel this will age incredible well in time to come.
If you have the chance to try this beer, you must - Cheers to a great beer and to the great people involved in brewing it!

Nice golden pour. Nose is mostly apples and alcohol. A very warming tripel with apple flavors in the aftertaste. Has a spicy oak flavor to the apples. Tastes like a roasted apple with brandy flavoring. Quite an interesting beer, will drink this one again. Can’t wait to try it about 6 months from now.

Burnished golden coloured beer with a thick white head. Aroma is quite spicy. Loads of vineous sweet oak, vanilla bean over a soft apple spiciness. Clove, cinnamon and a light toffeeish sweetness. Peppery and lightly alcoholic aroma. Yeast spiciness with a very vineous character. Flavour is soft and very well-integrated, toasted oak, light caramel (toasted wood) and vanilla. Apple and brandy vineousness throughout. A soft herbal/minty spiciness on the back. Cooling finish. As it warms, there is more spice that comes to the fore, especially cinnamon/clove and a soft appleskin tannic character. Another excellent brew from Captain Lawrence.

750 ml bottle purchased at Captain Lawrence. After my experience with the Ten Fidy on Friday, I was a little nervous trying another beer that I was very excited about. This time, however I was not disappointed. Pours almost the color of apple cider with a few floaties with a thin whitish head that faded to a film after about one-third of a glass. Very pleasant aroma of fresh apples and oak. The flavor I thought was amazing with apples, oak, vanilla, caramel and just a hint of spice (cloves I think). Really superb. Very nice buttery mouthfeel reminiscent of a good chardonnay. There is some alcohol present, but at 10% abv, I thought it was fairly well restrained. Overall, an excellent beer and worth the wait!
