20(th) Anniversary Ale

A creamy tan head moves to a very dark body with a slight ruby hue when the light is just right, nailed it! First aromas of molasses, and black berries, caramel and grape must lead you in for a sniff. Step back take another look and smell again, more dark fruit aromas and layers of candied sugars will have emerged this time around leaving the olfactory yearning for a taste. Immediately upon the first sip flavors of sweet malt and maple combine with molasses and complex honey characteristics making you think you are in for a sweet treat, but wait there’s more. Slight notes of pleasant roasted barley astringency and hop bitterness show their heads to balance this cousin of a monster out. At 9.3% ABV, don’t worry we are just warming up for when the brewery turns 21 next year... enjoy, and stay tuned. Show Less
