After endless hours of scorching in heat, brewing in turmoil, fermenting in angst, the Assassin's journey has just begun. In the shadow of the temple, he lies in wait, maturing his plot to perfection. He emerges merciless, dominated by darkness, his bite laced with the charred remnants of his victims. No man dares to cross his path. They will forever sleep with one eye open, in fear of the Assassin's hot kiss of death.

Thick black pour and a small beige head Fine intensity in the aroma Balanced sweetness for a beer at this alcohol level Mellow fine carbonation level Dangerously easy to drink. Creamy texture Dark malt, chocolate, vanilla, some booze, oak, fruity and some whiskey in the flavor Solid powerful beer [Bottle from a trade with ChrisOfstad]
