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...

2003 Vintage: After 6 years, the super-hoppy nature of this beast has taken a backseat to the brown sugar and dark fruit. That doesn’t mean that it has lost any of its quality. Pours a deep red, almost black, with a thin lasting head. The aroma is brown sugar, banana bread, and booze with a hint of hops. The flavor is very complex, including chocolate, maple syrup, dark fruit, etc. The hops serve to give it a nice dry finish, and complement the beginning. The alcohol is there, but not overpowering. This one was worth the wait.

Dak copper with a lasting off-white head. Sweet malty aroma with fruit and caramel and plenty alcohol. Sticky sweet malty flavour with lots of citrus hop and bitterness, and again, plenty alcohol

Bottle. Pours a murky hazy brown with a large taupe colored head. Big pineapple and wet pine, malt, plum, and caramel. Creamy, medium bordering on thick bodied, big malt and caramel. Finishes with a touch of alcohol, some slowly developing grapefruit bitterness and a little bit of prune.

Bottle. Light brown in colour with off white head. Rich aroma of hops, malt with some chocolate character too. Quite a complex beer, deep and rich flavours, with lots of malt fruitines and quite a bitter finish. There is alcoholic warmth but its not over powering. This is not a beer for the faint hearted or those that consider Crown Lager a "good"beer. Definately a beer for the beer geeks among us, thank god for Stone!
