Cask Days 2013. I think this was my highlight beer of the festival. Jet black pour, with a big rocky, mocha head. The aroma is intoxicating! So much roast! roast, roast, and more roast. Bitter burnt, charred espresso malts. A huge dose of solid piney hope. Incredible! Carb and mouth feel as spot on.The finish is just more roast, and kick ass pine hops. Incredible stuff.

11.5 ounce bottle from DeCicco & Sons in Armani, NY. Bottled on 01/22/2016, so it’s got some age on it. Nearly opaque dark brown pour is topped by a light tan cap. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and dark bread. Lightly carbonated. Flavors of dark malt, coffee, dark chocolate covered espresso beans, toasted dark bread, charred wood. Dry and bitter as the taste develops. Some resinous notes. Decent flavor and complexity for a beer that’s nearly eight years old.

Flaske 330ml fra Vinmonopolet Tromsø - Langnes. Delt med EgilB på Øverhøgda 5 Des 17. Så vidt gjennomskinnelig dyprød. Middels høyt brunt skum som blir nesten helt borte. Lett sjokoladearoma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken mokkabønner med litt krydder. Pepper i ettersmaken.
