2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Extremely sweet tasting beer with very low drinkability. I think I would pass on this one if offered again.
Draft at brewpub as part of the PHD program
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Glass at Elevator as part of the PhD program. Clear brown pour with a medium beige head. Aroma of banana, caramel, honey and a bit of spice. Super sugary flavor with banana, apple and honey in the finish. Not syrupy sweet, but definitely crazy sugary sweet. Very difficult to finish a glass, and I had to finish two because I dragged my brother there and he refused to finish his and I can’t let beer go to waste.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Poured dark reddish brown with an average fizzy light brown head that mostly dimished with little lacing. Moderate toasted malt, nutty and dark honey aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture and flat carbonation. Medium to heavy sweet flavor with a medium to heavysweet finish of moderate duration. This is a one of a kind beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: SEP 2, 2010 On draught at the brewpub, this is the August selection in Elevator’s "PHD" program. The beer is a slightly hazy mahogany-amber color with a medium creamy off-white head that recedes steadily. Sticky rings of lacing on the glass. Sweet malt and honey in the nose. Medium body with a syrupy sweet caramel malt character made even sweeter with the honey. Touches of fruit offset the sweetness. The finish is sweet with a malt aftertaste. Does not go too far overboard, but it could use some more balance. Slightly above average overall.
