COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
"INFUSCO" was inspired by a unique yeast's ability to gently weave character and flavor into the beers it ferments. A sweet body balanced with a big alcohol warmth and a touch of hops. Lingering rich flavors add to the complexity. Try aging this one for a year or two at cellar temperatures and compare the flavors that will emerge. For a "SLOW" experience pair this with smoked cheese, baked whole grain crackers, blackened peppercorn rib eye steaks, rich dark chocolate, hazelnut crepes or a fresh dark wrapped maduro cigar.

Tasting at JoeMcphee’s. This beer was all over the place. Smoke, pepper. I suppose the spice, smoke aroma could be described as the best part.. That isn’t saying much.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - JUN 26, 2008
Bottle at JoeMcphee’s. Pours dark brown body with a tan head. Aroma is birch tree, root beer, ginger and cinnamon. Flavor is smoky sweet ginger spice. Not a great blend. ITs smooth like birch beer and tangy the plus is its 8%.

PilsnerPeter (2958) - Flushing, New York, USA - JUN 22, 2008
Bottle: Brown pour with a bubbly off white head. Strong anisette presence in the nose. Spicy licorice and a touch of chocolate. Creamy feel with a nice chocolate malt taste and lots of anise spiciness. A bit underrated in my opinion.

Sammy (5888) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 10, 2008
This is a smoked beer with lots of sweetness. An experiment that while is drinkable, does not add up as something to have again.Some colour in body. I do not get this as a Belg, and did not observe any compexity when paired with food. Light mouthfeel.

hellbilly (2857) - scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA - MAY 7, 2008
bomber provided by pforei... very dark brown pour with a thin quickly disappearing light tan head. the aroma reminds me of sonoran 100 but in a bad unsuspecting way... smoke, molasses, black licorice and cloves. the palate has a strange sourness to it?... licorice, molasses, black olives, smoke and an out of place banana aftertaste...wtf? this really reminds me of that generic version of jagermeister. but personally, i like my beer with shots ON THE SIDE... eeww.

georgekappus (296) - Brookfield, Connecticut, USA - APR 14, 2008
Bottle. Pours a deep dark blackish brown with a thin white clingy head. Aroma of spices, wheat, licorice and molasses. Flavors of anise, spice and sugar. Too bubbly and thick on the palate.
