Commercial Description:
An aborted batch of their Old Gnarleywine ended up tasting nearly as good as that they were hoping for, so they bottled it. God bless capitalism. OG 1.100 IBU 51.1

Thank to Hellbilly for this bottle! Pours golden orange with a slight haze. Fluffy off-white head and nice lacing. Brown sugar and caramel malts on the nose. Big malty flavor with notable hints of hops and caramel.

Bottle. Pours golden-orange with a thin off-white head. Aroma is fresh orange, brown sugar, and caramel. Flavor is brown sugar, caramel, and orange up front, then adding some woody and grapefruit bitterness, and leaving a syrupy and resiny lingering taste. A bit of alcohol noticeable if I look. Pretty good, if a bit rough around the edges.

ruby red body with no head..aroma of amarillo hops, light sugar (very IPA-esque)..amarillo again in the flavor that kinda mutes out most other qualities of this beer..a touch of sugar and toasted malts as well..

Pours a nice clear golden-amber color with a thin tan head. Aroma is brown sugar and caramel, with hints of fruit. Flavor is sweet, fruits and caramel.. A great beer.

Bottle. A dashing ruby pour, with very little head. A beautiful glaze of lacing sticks to the glass. Aroma is filled with cherries, velvety caramel, laced with bright juicy apples. A wonderful array of floral hops hits the tongue; they resonate throughout my head. Ripe fruits: cherries, watermelon, apples, citrus. Very sharp, very smooth.
