Zymurgeist Profile - Brewver (Dev)

At lunch at O’Connell’s with my Mom (80) and daughter (11). This pub was a go to lunch spot for me in law school in the mid-90s, and have been going with my Dad and Uncle since de the 80s. Was so fun to be back there after a long time. Maybe not the greatest beer, but what great memories and there was nothing else from the craft selection that I could order when I saw this!! Another great time at O’Connell’s!!

Bottle to tulip. Pours black with big brown head. Aroma is restrained with moderate berry. Flavor shows chocolate, dusted chocolate, vanilla and various fresh berries. Tongue coating mouthfeel. Slightly viscous.

Would not let me create a batch as this is now a new style. This is a throwback to the 1990s doubles, being malt forward throughout. Not a lot of fruit here. Really doesn’t work as a hazy and is slightly cloying.

On tap at the brewery. Home from SF with my daughter visiting my parents and saw this in the menu. Get to bring a bottle home as well. So well blended and beautiful. The chilli has receded nicely to blend with the chocolate, vanilla, and whiskey aspects. Wonderful all around.
