In short: A rich malty copper ale with complex sweet flavors. Good sipper
How: Tap at brewpub, given to me by the brewer from a special keg he was saving for their 1rst anniversary. Thanks a lot Frank
The look: Partly cloudy copper body topped by a small beige head
In long: In long: Comparative rating: had this one immediately after the regular Elvexir, You take the regular Elvexir, make it a little rounder, increase fruity flavors complexity, take away most of the hoppiness, increase sweetness sensation, lower the drinkability. A very good beer but I thought that with the barrel treatment the beer lost a little more than it gained, I slightly preferred the excellent base beer. I am the first person to rate this beer, wow, the first person to rate a beer in a foreign country, wow, now I know how Neil Armstrong must have felt like.
