Consistently a top draw pint. You really could drink this all day, or at least try!

Inviting nose of dried fruit & berries, apples, flowers, citrus, and caramel. Pours a clear copper with amber highlights. The mostly lasting off-white creamy head leaves good lace. The front is balanced, the middle malty with a light acidity, and the toasted finish is full of lovely fig and raisin and fig notes. The medium body is dry and lively, the finish feels astringent. A perfect session offering. I’m a sucker for a well done bitter. Thanks to my buddy Rick bringing this over with him.

Strange molasses aroma. This is pretty darn tasty. Some light caramel molasses flavor. Overall flavor is pretty light but quite tasty.

Bottle. Poured into pint glass. Very nice head, lasting atop a golden body. On first sip we get a bit of wine, some alcohol, fresh hay and maltiness. Hops also up front. Palate is spritzy, refreshing. Not much change towards the bottom of the glass, very balanced.

Been looking forward to this one all night. Felinfoel’s ESB is my highest rated beer, and this was a coup to find another Felinfoel brew en route back to Tallahassee. (BTW - if you’re ever in Pensacola, be sure to stop by Four Winds - great selection of beer and wine, and the proprietor held the store open for me to buy this.)

This didn’t disappoint. Strong bitter/ tannic character but without being too edgy-- both in the flavor and aroma profiles. Definite caramel apple qualities in the flavor profile, muted tangy-ness, some whiffs of pipe tobacco. As far as I’m concerned, this is another tour de force from Felinfoel. Slight appearance dings for the plastic-y looking label, although I like the general log and Celtic interweave. Medium body has a peaty finish with a bit of vanilla.

I had this on tap at Llywelen’s Pub in St. Louis’ Centra West End. I found it pleasent and It made me reconsider Scottish Ales. Double Dragon was a dark amber beer that was like a liquid caramel apple. The heavy caramel was present which I expected in a Scottish Ale but the apple flavors were a welcomed surprise. Very warming and good.
