Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron

A little ho-hum for me.The saving grace was the obvious "wood" presence- very interesting.

12 oz bottle from Casanova. Deep dark brown pour with a tan head. Boozy, caramel smell. Thick sweet mouthfeel, flavor is a complex mix of caramel, hint of chocolate, almost a sherry like flavor. Huge beer with a wonderful finish.

Noire opaque avec reflet rougeâtre. Très peu de mousse. Arômes de malt chocolat, de boisé et de brûlé. Bière complexe, offrant des saveurs de chocolat, de boisé, de brûlé et d’alcool qui est bien présent. Légères touches de caramel et de vanille également présentes.

Great stuff. Very distinct malty roasted flavor. Not over powering flavor and very drinkable.

Bottle. Pours a very dark brown with a small light tan head that diminishes quickly to nothing leaving decent spotty lacing along the glass. The aroma is a strong roasted malt and alcohol with chocolate and cherry. Thin mouthfeel with a roasted malt taste and chocholate and brown sugar. Alcohol well hidden making it very easy to drink. A very impressive American strong ale from Dogfish Head.

BOTTLE: thick black pour, offwhite head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted coffee, and port. Medium body, taste is coffee, bourbon, and vanilla. Awesome.

Pours thick and a deep mahogany with a stout like creamy head. I smell chocolate, coffee and of course the wood. Picking up licorice as it warms Medium to full body like a porter or stout. tatses sweet with espresso, cocoa and dried fruit. More like a stout than an American ale. Pretty intense flavors mask the alcohol well.

Dark brown and very malty. very harsh on the back end with alcohol. almost competing against the lovely malt taste.
