Notes:
For this beer, we use maple syrup from Red Brook Farm -- Sam's family farm in Western Massachusetts, peat-smoked barley, juniper berries and vanilla.
Immort is fermented with a blend of English and Belgian yeasts, then aged in the big oak tanks at the brewery.
The sweet and earthy flavors meld magnificently in the Immort Ale. But be warned, the ABV is 11%, so after one or two you may start feeling immortal (even though we promise you won't be).

The color is amber to brown - a nice deep shade and in the glass gives the appearance of multiple colors. Head is present but drops off significantly to around the rim after pour. Beautiful smell - with vanilla and maple syrup front and center. Subtle oak flavoring on the tongue, slight alcohol taste (but expected at this strength), sweet on the front side and warm on the back side. Nice beer for fall and winter.

The brew pours a dark bronze under a modest off-white head that provides a solid amount of lace. The peat-smoked barley and vanilla standout in the nose, but they do not overshadow hints of maple, caramel, and alcohol. The smokiness leads on the palate with the richer malt flavors of caramel and toasted biscuits joining in to simmer down the smokiness. As the beer warms, maple and vanilla flavors begin to become more assertive, s well as a nice little hop profile in the finish. Lighter in carbonation, this 11%er has a fairly heavy mouthfeel. A great sipper from the folks at DFH!

look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
A: Poured from bottle to pint glass. Beer has a off white 2 finger head that dissipates slowly leaving a little lace, the color is a dark amber.
S: The nose on this beer is simply amazing, strong maple notes with a light smoke.
T: Taste is right along the smell, huge maple and oak front with a slight smokey middle. The finish has a fairly light hop presence and despite being 11% abv the alcohol is very well hidden.
M: Very full bodied beer with a surprising amount of carbonation.
O: Another very well done Dogfish beer will definitely buy again.
