Love the pirate theme of this beer label. Arrggghh!
Pours a clear brown color with a thin head that dissipates quickly leaving just a thin swirl of tan foam on top. Lacing is sticky and spotty.
Aroma is big in dark fruits and alcohol. A touch of wood type aromas.
Taste is sweet and mostly dark fruit, malts, and lots of alcohol coming out on this one. Maybe some molasses.
Light watery body with low carbonation.
Overall, it's not my bag. I might be kind of tough on the rating on this beer, but is not for me. Does not seem balanced and I am getting way to much alcohol coming out on this to make it enjoyable.
Pours clear in spite of being dark. A small off-white foam doesn't last. Lacing
Aroma is interesting. Dark fruits and alcohol are there. Something that I can't explain is there: bottle says it has popular - is that a sweet wood? Molasses and toffee show through too.
Taste is very sweet. Molasses, toffee, and other things. Hard beer to pin down. Alcohol burns late.
Medium body might be a stretch with medium carbonation. Dries.
This beer just doesn't agree me. I had a hard time even describing the beer. Definitely marked off the list as I couldn't even finish my glass. Enjoy!
