Commercial Description:
For 14 wonderful years, we have been creating libations for ourselves in the hope that some others out there would share our eccentric palates and support us. Many thanks to all of you who do! Here is yet another quirky brew: a very dark and different, dry-hopped ale. Style? hard to say, you decide. Just expect massive molasses maltiness, limitless fruits on the nose and an imposing floral & zesty dry-hop finish. Peace to all and follow your dreams!
1.090 OG, 60 IBUs.

Fluffy head on a big body. Some spice and citrus hops on the aroma with a lot of sugary sweetness. Taste is smooth and sweet with some molassess and grain with some earthy hops. Nice and aging well.

This was a gift. Poured a rich brown with a fat creamy head. Nose of rich malts, ripe fruit, and some chocolate. Rich creamy mouthfeel. Lots of flavor with carmel mats dominating. Very nice bitter finish.

Pours with a deep amber-brown body topped by a medium thick, tan head with lots of lacing. It’s slightly sweet yet bitter with notes of butterscotch and spice as well as alcohol. Meidum to full bodied and warm going down.
