Tonight's beer: Weyerbacher SIXTEEN
[No pic: Technical Difficulties]
Caramel and dark-toasted fruits, dark honey—not as crazy as buckwheat, but darker than clover; tupelo comes to mind. Dark-toasted bread in background/supporting role. Some earthy=grassy-floral bitterness emerges toward finish as beer dries out quite a lot.
Very light-bodied, with decent prickle that feels like carbonation byt might be the only warning of the pretty substantial (10.5% ABV) alcohol payload. Gently drying, scarily close to refreshing.
Alarmingly drinkable beer, tending largely toward slurpable, with roughly zero warning of the booze content. Intense and subtle, simultaneously; complex and balanced. A beer that has survived an extra year in the bottle very well. Yummy as hell.
