JW with a gem. Dude hooks me up with the rarest shit ever. Unreal. Amber pour. Lot of sweet booze in this one and some light fruit aroma. Flavor is sweet, a bit hot, boozy, caramel. Cool "beer" for sure.

BCTC 2010. Ok, I was loaded by the time I tried this. But someone was nice enough and generous enough to share this, and I wrote down that I liked it a lot, even though I can barely read the rest of my notes. But I’m gonna try. Yellowlyhyl. Candy sugar gytzther. Rich arrseen. Ol col. Very good.

Bottle 67 of 75 shared by iowaherkeye. 2009 vintage. Thanks! Poured a clear medium orange color with a thin off white head. lager yeast aromas with subdued toffee and grape candy-ish noble hop. Medium to full bodied with a warming alcohol effect. Distinct noble hop flavor with notes of date and caramel liqueur. Interesting, but not my bag.

187 ml bottle, 2009. My rating #1800! Clear golden amber with a trace of froth. Nose is honey, dough and toffee with hints of malt and yellow raisin. Not quite syrupy, faint carb, but not as sticky as expected. Taste is peanut brittle, honeydew, caramel and grass finishing with burnt sugar. Clean yet rustic with well hidden alcohol. Verging on malt liquor but still a unique beer experience.

kickass little bottle thanks to Iowaherkeye. Pours yellow with a small white head. Sugar and booze all over the aroma and flavor with some dough, corn, and green apples. Big boozy sweet finish. double imperial iced budweiser would have been a better name for this one. Crap.

Huge thanks to Ogglethorp for sharing one of my white whales at the last C-bus tasting! Golden pour--really striking look to this beer. No head. Aroma is muted with some sweetness and light apple coming through, along with some heat. The taste is incredibly hot, with some light caramel coming through, but mostly alcohol. The flavor is decent, but nothing complex at all. Definitely a let down from the hype.

DLD10. Right place at the right time with this one. Thanks to whomever kindly shared this pour. Clear yellow with a thin head. Aroma of perfume alcohol and sweet sugars. Boozy flavors pale malts and so much alcohol. Too boozy. Ok 7/3/6/3/13

Bottle graciously shared by Ogglethorp. Seriously. This was one of those beers when I first joined me and the other Bastardos were after but never ending up getting. Years pass, trends change and this little bastard comes along again and finally a bottle pops up to share. Does it live up to all the hype and expectations? Not really, it’s hot, the flavors are cloying.... nothing really holds it together and it’s all together too sweet for me. I’ve had worse at this ABV, but this really boils down to rarity and hype, not a great beer.

Bottle shared by Ogglethorpe courtesy of thepiest: aroma rich caramel notes, some boozy hints, some fruits, spices. Flavor, toffee, spices and boozy notes, some fruits.

this little guy was made available by jay at dlday 2010. thanks my friend... pours a deep orange caramel brown with no head but very nice boozy legs... golden honey aroma laidened with sweet boozy notes...thick and coating, the flavors lend themselves to sweet honey, lighter caramel and grains. smooth despite the abv level but there is some heat that adds a bit of a spicy burn. appreciate the taste!
