Commercial Description:
This is a lacerative muther of a beer. The evil big brother of Arrogant Bastard Ale. It is strongly suggested you stay far, far away from this beer. Those foolish enough to venture close enough to taste will experience a punishingly unforgiving assault on the palate. ’Course there’s always the masochists...

Bottle, 2007. Pours a deep red/amber/brown color with a small white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma of caramel malt, some floral hops. Flavor mainly of malt, some floral and piney hops, faint grapefruit notes. Delicious! Thick mouthfeel, so this is a sipper, but is one of the most balanced American strong ales. Sweet, but not too sweet and thick, but not too thick. Excellent, best ASA I’ve had to date. I love this beer! (Oh yeah, also the label is awesome!)

...the bigger, badder brother of satan himself. This shit is really hardcore, and will give you super human strength. Massively complex, dark and roasty, yet sweet to mask the high alcohol content. I would like to drink this again, but you can’t get it in Florida. This will make you a true badass just by drinking it.

Bottle at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours a rich red-amber with a smattering of white foam on top. Very thick palate, with rich, chewy malts and a slight woodiness. This is counterbalanced by a monster hoppiness loaded with pine and grapefruit. The alcohol is noticeable as well. Very big and bold. Awesome!

Cloudy orange beer with a tight orange-cream head. Massive sweet cookie malt and resinous hop aroma. Huge hop attack bolstered by thick chewy matls, something vaguely spicy in there, gargantuan flavour and heavy mouthfeel. Intense but not overbearing, big alcohol is almost undetectable. A gorgeous beer!

Bottle. Pours ruby brown with a beige head. The first sniff was all hops, which quickly gave way to caramel, brown sugar, and fruit (berry, plum). Medium/full body. Flavor starts with sweet malt, caramel, just a hint of chocolate, and plum. Then a slight roasted flavor emerges, followed by floral and piny hops. The finish is long , dry, and pleasantly bitter. Very good.
