Description
Horus Aged Ales is a 100% barrel aged brewery located in Oceanside, California. We believe in pushing the boundaries on how much beer can evolve through resting in oak by using a variety of different wine and spirit barrels, adding exotic fruits, and fermenting spontaneously. The complexity of the beer portrays our passion for experimentation and patience required to produce such a unique beverage. Horus has been a decade long dream that is finally coming true and we look forward to introducing our exclusive beer to the fine people of San Diego County.

Super hazy golden coloured body with a bright yellow glow, all with a thick-ish, two to three centimetre tall almost pure white head. Aroma of pungent dank tropical fruity hops with a light dose of grass and hay and a lot of coconut aroma as well - deep and tropical, all with a smooth alcohol and malt presence. Medium-bodied; Strong dry and malty flavour at first that gives way almost immediately to a tropical fruity, sweet and almost resinous bite from the hops, sweetness and fruits, all with a good malt backbone. Aftertaste shows the smoother hops that have the tropical fruit flavours and some toasted coconut is noticeable, but the bulk of the complexity comes from the yeast and malts, which make this a bit more robust and deep with a light biscuity note and some astringent grain is picked up on the end as well. Overall, a nice and robust, full-flavoured beer with definite tropical fruit flavours, especially the coconuts. I sampled this sixteen ounce can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 19-April-2019 for US$4,74 sampled at home in Washington on 01-July-2019.

Draft at Churchkey. Poured a pitch black color with a small tan head. Aroma was hazelnut cookie. Dry DARK roast coffee. The bitterest chocolate I have ever had. Roasted malts. I could definitely smell this for hours. Flavor was pretty good as well. Smooth, dark bitter coffee. Really good.
