muzzlehatch (4425), Burlington, Vermont, USA Jan 1, 2004 Bottled, at Resi's Bierstube, Chicago, December 03. Powerful butterschocolte aroma, knocked heads with the Weihenstephaner I was drinking; much as I liked that, I wanted more of this as well (my friend was drinking it) but alas we had had enough and were driving in snow. Extremely sweet and malty, a bit of tobacco thrown in, mid-to-low yeast level, I feel I'm overrating this but it was wonderful. Sometimes the company helps the beer, a lot.
