look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 2 | overall: 2

APP- Billiard black beer with decent white head leaves no lace. It is opaque.

Aroma- Prunes, raisins, soy sauce, alcohol, sherry

Taste- treacle, plum skin, fig, roasted grain, notes of toasted marshmallow

Mouthfeel- light bodied despite the heavy flavors, wheat barely comes through with all the roasted grain, combines with hot alcohol to sear any of the more pleasant flavors off the palate

Vintage 2011

Pours a dark brown with a confluent, skeletal surface etch of light brown foam. Smells of candied dates, some belgian sugar, some hints of toasted malts, a bit of sweet malt, some cocoa powder and a little tawny character - nice. Tastes sweet with toasted brown sugar, graham, some candied yams and plums. Tea, rice and and a little bit of malt extract syrup. Yummy beer. A bit like a simple syrup, low carb and a forgettable finish. I don't know that this really fits the wheatwine category, but I think this particular take on the beer to be fucking brilliant - I would even consider tossing a little bit of belgian yeast into this to give it a touch more depth.
