Silný svrchně kvašený ejl ve stylu barley wine. V barvě mírně zakalené, tmavě meděné. Koňakové aroma a ovocná chuť. Kocour pro Vás připravil své nejsilnější pivo, svrchně kvašený ejl K31. Stupňovitostí je to "jednatřicítka", obsah alkoholu má 12,3%. Není to tedy nejsilnější české pivo, ale druhé místo je také hezké :-)
Speciál se stáčí do lahviček typických pro ledové víno. Mají korkový uzávěr a voskovou pečeť s logem Kocoura. Kupte si pár vzorků a každé tři měsíce si jedno otevřete, ať můžete sledovat, jak se chuť vyvíjí :-)

Bottled. Amber colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is red wine, some sweet malts, a bit earthy elements. Flavour is very sweet burnt sugary, syrup, some malts as well as dried fruits with some nectary and fruity elements. So sweet it made you grin. Good dessert beer in small amounts.

Bottle from a trade. Many thanks mmahut! Dark amber, no foam. Syrupy texture. Nose of caramel, stone fruit, and lots of honey. Is this a barley wine or a mead? Very sweet, but in a positive way. More liquor than beer. Good.
