Commercial Description:
Lacking nothing, at ten percent alcohol by volume and 95 International Bitterness Units, the Decadent truly represents all that is self indulgent when it comes to drinking beer.

This is one of my favorite beers- best when consumed at Ska’s brewery during one of their Ska-b-ques

For those of you out there who like IPA’s, this should be on your christmas list. Made year round, this beer is possible one of the best beers to come out of colorado. It’s 10 percent alc/vol is just perfect. A must for any true IPA or double IPA lover.

You’ve got to be kidding me. This is the best beer that I’ve had in quite a while. Clean citrus and pine hops. A touch of sweet rather than puckering dry. It is extremely clear orange copper in the pour with an eggshell head. The 10% alc. was completely hidden, which seems to me another testament to how great this beer is. Last beer of 2008 for me, and perhaps one of the best.

22 oz. bottle served in shaker- poured a transparent polished copper with a tint of ruby color, very low carbonation, one finger off white head formed and laced very well. Aroma of citrus, resin, and pine (hops), very sweet malt, and evil. Hits the mouth with low-high body- uncharacteristically high, but very good none the less, malt is extremely sweet, but the hops come rushing in, destroy your rating notes, shove a funnel down your 125 lb. throat, and make you DRINK. MIddle becomes stronger with hops and alcohol burn, finish lingers much like someone with a pair of nuts never quits. This whole country could use some decedance- the dark and dirty side. I agree with that last statement.

Mild citrus hops aroma, medium amber color with great head in the beginning. Medium hoppy flavor with mild citrus on top. Not too bitter or complex.

Bottled. Orange coloured. Unclear. Small beige head. Pines, herbs, spices and flowers in the aroma. Flavour is very herbal and full of pineneedles. Is balanced by a ligth fruitsweetness. Medium bodied. Very bitter and citric in the end. Refreshing and very drinkable.

Beautiful amber color, with a big creamy head. Sweet and fruity aroma (mango? apricot?) Then some herbal hop comes out. Good body structure, with sweet toffee flavor, and a fruity bitterness, but not extreme. Very good.
