Strange malt bomb that lacks direction. Some odd hop characters, like pear and apricots. Body severely lacks hops and bitterness. Unbalanced. A disappointment from what is ususally a good brewery.

Bottle. Aroma of sherry, over-ripe pears, and funk. Funky, fruity flavor, with very strong bitter hops. Buttery, caramel, a bit of vegetable, and some sweaty socks. Interesting, though bit weird.
