dnstone (1984) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - DEC 26, 2009
The aroma is of walnuts and syrup. Reddish amber, murky apple cider-like color. Tastes as it smells, strong but not too intense with a tiny brett/sour finish. Intriguing and excellent. Notes: On tap at the Pints for Prostates/Denver Rare Beer Tasting at Wynkoop Brewing Co, 2009 Great American Beer Fest
