A: Pours a very warm golden orange copper color. Crystal clear with a few bubbles slowly rising from the bottom. Head is an eggshell color and very thin. What was 1 finger has now disappeared.

S: The nose is very reminicent of a Belgian quad. Alcohol soaked dark fruits. Caramel and spice from the rye.

T: Tons of initial alcohol burn. Lots of caramel
soaked figs. What ever hops were present have faded. Tons of spiceyness the rye malts really make themselves noticed over the pale malts.

M: medium bodied with tons of stickiness. As with eleven it coats every part of the mouth and lips. Lots of alcohol burn in the throat.

Overall: this thing must have been a real beast when younger. As it sits now. That alcohol smacks you in the face even after 3+ years. The rye provides a nice amount of spice. I'm glad to be able to try this one time only offering from one of my favorite breweries.

Drank in Oct. 2021. Pours dark caramel color. No head. Aroma is entirely brown sugar. Taste is still quite nice. Subtle taste of dark fruits, honey and rye. Feel is very thin. Maybe aged too long but definitely enjoyed it.

Bottle shared by RussianDragon. Turn back the clock.

The beer is copper orange with a small off-white head. Light haze. Aromas include apples, brown sugar, yeast, oranges, butterscotch. Sweet and syrupy with prominent honey character. Thick on the palate with low carbonation. Alcohol presence is tamed by time but the beer is still a bit of a chore. Best shared many ways.
