Tasting Notes (3)

Tasted on 4/9/2017 by MicBrew93

Notes:

Phenomenal beer! Nice smooth caramel taste, get a slight alcohol burn with a nutty/prune back taste, good sipping beer and worth the wait. Continues to smooth out longer sitting in keg.

Notes:

Nailed final gravity, bulk aged in secondary for 4.5 months, great beer, can't wait for carbonation

Tasted on 10/7/2016 by MicBrew93

Notes:

Transferred from primary to secondary to let it bulk age for a while. Gravity reading showed 1.018. Nice caramel aroma with a strong sweet taste, very good beer and with time I feel it will get better!!
