Commercial Description:
This is a lacerative muther of a beer. The evil big brother of Arrogant Bastard Ale. It is strongly suggested you stay far, far away from this beer. Those foolish enough to venture close enough to taste will experience a punishingly unforgiving assault on the palate. ’Course there’s always the masochists...

Bottle. Reddish amber colour with a nice head. Nice aroma of caramel and hops. Flavour of caramel and hops. Ends up nicely and bitter.

Double wow! Talk about a hefty beer. the great thing is, you don’t even realize its so massive until halfway through it. goes down nice and smooth, not too hoppy. Goes down as one of brewing’s great achievements.

What a heavy beer. Thick luscious head for a 10% beer. Pours a heavy amber hue with ruby hints. Very hoppy yet balanced.

Powerful, intense, malty. Pours really nice into a deep amber color with a nice head. Taste is intense of well balanced malts, and alcohol.

Thanks to Ramenen. Bottle: Complex and big, sweet malty notes with fruit, hops and caramel touches. The body is heavy, oily and thick. Lives up to expectations.

Thanks to Geoff from Firehouse for hooking me up with these bottles in LV. Pours a nice robust caramel red, and the lacing head is chino, spidery and fine. An excellent nose, with a spicy hop bouquet and a firm malt twist. It’s a very creamy beer in the mouth, almost feels like a steam beer in that respect. Excellent hop translucence mixes with the malt bop and finishes with a clean, refreshing albeit exceedingly alcoholic zing. Not for the novice beer drinker!!

Pours cloudy carmel with a redish head, flavor is a lot of malt and a lot of hops, slightly bitter finish, really tasty beer
