Commercial Description:
Big Brown Ale aged on palo santo wood from Paraguay. This beer is a 12% abv, highly roasty, and malty brown ale aged on the wood of the Palo Santo tree from Paraguay. Palo Santo means "holy tree" and it's wood has been used in South American wine-making communities. We were lucky enough to get our hands on 20 blocks of the super-dense wood and the wood was added to the ageing tank after fermentation.

GABF 2007. Vintage 2006. A pitch black beer with a orange-brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of both chocolate and coffee. The flavor is sweet with notes of coffee, cocoa beans, oil, alcohol, wood, and caramel, leading to a alcoholic and woody finish. The body is strong.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of FlacoAlto. Pours completely black and opaque with a rough, light brown head. Vinous aroma with some roasted malt and woody accents. Quite full-bodied with sweetish roasted malt and a spicy edge, some dried fruit also. Some malt bitterness in the finish. A very interesting beer. 201008

Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Very dark brown, minimal brown head. Spicy aroma of cinnamon and ginger, without really giving the impression of being spiced. Sweet and syrupy, full sized with lots of caramel, gingersnaps, molasses, wood and herbs. On top of that there’s white chocolate, honey, cardamom and café au lait. A powerful, complex and unusual sipping beer.

Cask@GBBF2008. Black colour, not much head. Aroma is coffee, some roasted malts and fudge along iwth caramel mlts and some wood. Flavour is alcohol, spices, licorice and some fudgeish notes. Impressive, and hides the ABV surprisingly well for being 12 %.
