Bottle. Extensively boiled over direct fire, fermented in open vessels and seven months of maturation this year, according to the label. Color: Lightly hazy ruby to copper, beige head. Aroma: Malty, dried grapes, bit tart and vinuous notes of fortified wine. Taste: Malty, some caramel, dried grapes, fortified wine. Bit boozy. Lightly tart, moderate sweet. Light bitterness. Subtle wood and hints of tannins. Light hints of smoke. Over medium body, below average carbonation. Very dry finish. Another very interesting beer from Butcher's Tears.
