1st review!
Well, it is about time I started to review beers - why not kick things off with an exceptional beer?
Poured into a Harpoon Winter Warmer Snifter
A: Pitch black, just a thin layer of dark foam after a vigorous pour. Completely opaque.
S: Coffee, oaky,
T: Roasted, charred coffee. Bourbon flavor up front, but quickly fades. Taste of black cherry pokes through the roast flavors. Waming alcohol taste at the end. Extremely complex. Roast bitterness lingers.
M: Viscous, coats your mouth, feels smooth, with some tannins felt at the back of the tongue
D: A sipper for sure, but the high abv goes down very smooth. The complexity makes me want to take another sip to see what other flavors develop as it warms.
Overall, fantastic. I don't care for the roast coffee bitterness that lingers, and there is a little too much alcohol warmth, but those are minor criticisms to an otherwise amazing beer.
