3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 BOLTZ7555 (2378) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - APR 30, 2013
Bottle acquired via trade with Homer321...had to let my pops try this as he is a fan of rich and crazy sweet and this one didn’t disappoint! Fiery amber/burnt tangerine pour with a tightly packed eggshell foam. Nose isn’t quite as complex as I’d like but shows loads of vanilla bean, molasses, toffee, and maple syrup. Flavor is similar with the addition of some oak, honey-baked biscuit, and hints of cocoa. This one is quite sweet but I didn’t find it at all cloying and the ABV is masterfully (dangerously) hidden. Nice syrupy mouthfeel as well.

Aroma is thick caramel malts with a citrus/pine hop punch. Just like arrogant bastard but more caramel heavy. Body is thick and chewy. Sticky. Color is bronze/brown with a nice head. Very intense flavors of caramel and resinous hops behind an alcoholic mask. Good. Intense.
