Commercial Description:
Our first bottled seasonal beer, this Belgian ale has a spicy aroma and deep caramel flavors to balance the slightly sweet finish. Mercy will be available in 4 packs this November around Thanksgiving. We’re making just 600 cases, with a few kegs available to Madison area bars, including the Ale Asylum taproom. At 9.5% abv., Mercy is perfect for warming the body and the soul.

Had this one bottled thanks to CarterHayes, thanks Wyl!! Clear, slightly hazy amber pour with a thin, white head, slightly sweet, very spicy nose, fortified, flavors are all over the place, dark fruits, spice, peaches, apricots, apples, and raisins. Alcoholic finish. Much like a beer version of a glog! A bit over the top for my palate.

Amber pour. Aroma is very malty. Lots of caramel, some yeast and honey. Flavor is a total malt bomb with a slight metallic finish. Sweet but not cloying. A VERY light hop finish.

Pours a nice copper/amberish color with a small head. Sweet malt and fruit dominate the aromas. Flavor is of Sweet malts that transforms into a dark fruit/cherry flavors. Some alcohol flavor lingers as the bitter hops finish. Very good brew!

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has strong notes of malt, medium notes of caramel, and light notes of spices. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of malt and medium notes of caramel, leaing to a dry alcohol finish. The alcohol burns lightly on the palate. Thanks CaptainCougar for coming to Denmark and sharing this.
