Rich, deep crystal malt character. Heavy stewed fruit and a long lingering oakiness. Light cookie dough sweetness and more sweet oak. Really pretty tasty.

May 5, 2009 Draft at Capone’s. Pours mahogany/deep ruby with 1-finger off-tan head and great lacing. Nose is dark malt, vanilla, dark choc, hops, oaky, earthy. Tastes rich, oaky and bourbony, earthy, peaty, with heavy dark malt, dark choc, slight black cherry, backup hops. The flavor in this is very complex and layered, but subtle, and the palate is hefty and very well balanced for a beer this big. I had nop idea the ABV was this high on this one, and will gladly take the high outlier position on this. As unique a beer as i have ever had, starting from a 4 ounce sample at Capone’s, then moving to a pint, then saying to my wife, "I have to growler this!" Another marvelous beer from Paul and Duck Rabbit. Paul, it was a pleasure to meet you tomight, and keep up the good work, man!
