Commercial Description:
We turned our regular Damnation recipe into a Tripel. It is bittered with Tomahawk and has Sterling and Cascade in the mid-boil and finish. The beer was then aged on new American oak chips for two to three weeks.

( 750ml bottle HUGE thanks to ericandersnavy) Pours very cloudy orange with great head and lacing. Nose of cherries, oak, alcohol, grass and spicy hops. Taste of spicy yeast, creamy, tropical fruits. This beer is extremely well carbonated. The ONLY flaw is a little sweetness is lacking. Aside from that this beer is near perfection.

Bottle thanks to ericandersnavy at the Oct Houston RB tasting. Lemony and tart, a bit sweet and nosey. Dry and bitter and very drinkable.

bottle. Thanks to ericandersnavy who shared it at the Houston RB Tasting in October. Pours a cloudy, pale amber with almost no head. Nose is of yeast and lemon. Taste is also yeast and lemon. Mouthfeel is dry as hell.

Served on tap at O’brien’s TION night in a 5oz taster. I regret not getting more! Really tastes like I expected. Color is on the darker side of straw/gold, with a small white head. Taste is light oak, Belgian yeast, fruits, earth. Vinne should brew this more often than once in 23 batches..

Bottle from ericandersnavy. A little oak with some slight citrus. Hidden alcohol is masked very well. Good flavor.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma is very fruity, with medium notes of alcohol, and lighter notes of malt, caramel, and brettanomyces. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit, alcohol, citrus, lacto, and brettanomyces, leading to a dry alcoholic finish. Thanks CaptainCougar for coming to Denmark and sharing this.
