12oz bottle split with renowned beer connoisseur Anndiesel. Filtered copper body. Steady off-white head. Kind of has that unimpressive and thankfully antiquated yeast forward feel, flowery and estery. Heavy handed, lack delicacy. Not bad or off, just not that enjoyable of a beer. At 7% it starts to drink like a Belgian, but lacks the sublimity or mouthfeel for sure.

A rare beer found at Jims Party Shop on Mahoning road in N Jackson between lil paws and Paladin. Bot. I was thinken it would be more wild or tart, was wrong. You know,, you say wild red ale, I’m thinking Flemish, quite a misdirection.. Smell is just a tad volatile. On the palate, tho, it is bear-ley N perceivably tart, perhaps, it comes across like an IPA kindah bS. Muddy thick view like lighter mud. Bitter, almost sweet hoppy thang. Yes, bret it is but, if you are gonna claim bret how about something a little less controlled. Let’s call it an imperial saison, why don’t yah? Like, you know, a little more tart? Not quite as good as expected considering the name. Not really a sour or tart ale, how about american strong ale?

16 ounce can, best by May 2017 stamped on the bottom of the can. Can conditioned.
Lovely pitch black beer sitting under aboot an inch of tan foam.
Rum and chocolate/cocoa permeate my every nose bud. That’s not to say that I don’t get an abundant amount of vanilla, cuz I do.
6 months of aging in Rum barrels did the trick. Oodles and oodles of rum taste here folks. There’s a mix of chocolate and cocoa nibs with the latter more prevalent to my palate.
Vanilla hits me just before and through the finish.
Aboot full bodied with adequate carbonation.
Nice beer and I’ll give it the accolades it deserves but. ..+$13 a can is pretty steep in my book.

12oz waxed bottle for 5 dollars. Aroma wreak of Brett or infection, not at all what I would hope for from an Old Ale. Devolved twisted malt tones. Gross putrid aroma. Not unlike a mild Belgian Quad at times, but really just a miss. Unimpressive, not worth buying.
