Commercial Description:
This Eisbock was lagered a full year and then frozen to incomparable smoothness. This is a big and complex beer, suitable for laying down or consuming immediately, serve at 55 degrees Fahrenheit. A few times a year, we will cut Dan Carey loose to brew whatever he chooses, uncensored, uncut, UNPLUGGED. Always handcrafted, the bottle you hold is brewed for the adventurous soul. This is a very limited edition and we make no promises to ever brew this style again. Eisbock is the first of our Unplugged series of beers.

An amber beer with a thick orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of chocolate, alcohol, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of wood, alcohol, and caramel, as well as some hints of over ripe fruits. Nice one.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of JCapriotti. Hazy, orangey brown with a tiny, beige head. Sweet, fat aroma of lightly burned caramel. Quite full in body with sweetish, roasted accents, some caramel and overripe fruit. Subdued bitterness. Smooth and delicious. 090407

Toasty amber colour. Aroma of sweet malts, rosehips and toast. Evocative of warm bricks. Sweet, refined maltiness. Toasty, toffee and even some slight esters. Still comes off as a bit light compared with the Eggenberg or old Niagara examples.

Small, quickly dissipating tan head atop a clear copper body. Aroma is sticky sweet, toffee/caramel, cherry, almond. Taste is much the same, finishing with cherry cough syrup and a serious alcohol warming. As it warms, barleywine elements come forth. Full/medium body, almost no carbonation.
