This boss Cow rules with 9% ABV and an Original Gravity of 18.4 degrees Plato. Fine Wisconsin and Czech malts step out with hand chosen Willamette and Yakima Valley hops joined up with French and German varieties. Fresh coriander and sweet orange peel kick up Dan’s special Farmhouse Ale. Bottle fermented and hazy as an early meadow morning, expect Spotted Cow Grand Cru to be an assertively quaffable Imperial edition of Wisconsin’s favorite local brew.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy golden large white head, creamy, dissipates slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is corn, biscuit, coriander. Flavor is light plus sweet, very light bitter. Medium body, high carbonation. Yeah.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Milwaukee, 11/25/16. Hazy golden, thin fizzy off-white head, good retention. Aroma of corn, floral notes, apple skin, citrus. The taste is bready, doughy malt, corn, spice, hay. Thin-medium bodied, mild lingering spice.

This is an odd duck. On the one hand it seems like an amped up reg’large Cowboys, though a tad think. Yet I think I like the original more.
