Adam is a recreation of a historic beerstyle. Originally made in Dortmunder, Germany, it was the first beer I produced when I opened Hair of the Dog. Rich in flavor, Adam is best served as a dessert beer. It is great with chocolate or cigars, or just a warm fire and good company.

Draft 2013 vintage at Brouwers for their anniversary. Very dark pour with a swirl fizz head. Smokey caramel malt aroma. Such intriguing flavor here. Just enough smoke to keep you coming back for more, and not enough to overpower the remining malt bill. Semi sweet caramel with the smoke to balance. Soft smoke finish. I would love to pair this beer with a fine cigar. It does plenty by itself. Most.excellent beer here.

2003 (batch 57) drank in 2015. Dark brown mahogany color. No head. Caramel, plums, port, slightly smokey and Vegemite. The carbonation is very low. The mouth is surprisingly smokey with some oxidized notes, port and caramel. Lingering port and caramel finish. Aged amazingly. Fantastic.

Dark, opaque brew, with a small tan head that dissipates quickly - looks a bit like a really dark Belgian quad. Smells metallic, caramel sweet, figs, raisins, spices. The taste follows on the same notes, figs, dark chocolate, raisins, brown sugar, spices and alcohol. Very smooth mouthfeel with a small but noticeable level of carbonation. Warm aftertaste.

@Borefts 2015, fles na het festival meegenomen van de winkel. Heb beide varianten meegenomen, die met het witte etiket gerate onde de molen en deze, ratings overigens grotendeels identiek. schenkt donkerbruin tot zwart met fijne licht bruine kraag. aroma van rookmout, chocolade, mout, zoet en ham. smaken zijn zacht/glad, redelijk zoet, licht bitter, rookmout, gerookte ham, vanille, alcoholisch, prima smooth mond gevoel, vijgen, rozijnen, caramel, lichte sigaar, redelijk moutig, chocolade, vol en stevig, redelijk tot volle body, plakkerig. mocht van mij nog wel wat complexer qua smaakbeleving, iets té alcoholisch. Heb niet echt op de verschillen gelet, gedeeld met anderen.

At the 8th tasting (round 1), held at Vlada’s Beerville pub in Belgrade-Serbia. Bottle, a treat from our beloved mate luttonm from Seattle-USA. Grazie, this makes us feel honored. Pours unfiltered Turkish coffee color, only some bubbles here and there. Nose: wow! Tons of leather notes, dust, under spirit cherries, wood. Mouth: non-offensive oxidation, flat body, starts with a juicy cherries blast, ends earthy, a bit tart. Rich and great. Mammia Mia!
