12oz Bottle Poured Into A Dogfish Snifter Glass

Milton, Delaware
Sam Calagione
1995

Appearance:
Crisp Marmalade Color
"Cognac Beer"
Murky Clarity
Bubbly Off White Head
Weak Head Retention
Lacing All Around The Glass

Aroma:
Smell Is Dreamy And Delicious
I Just Wanted To Keep On Smelling The Beer, Instead Of Drinking It
Bubbalicious Bubble Gum
Pear 

Light Vanilla
Slightly Oaky
Light Whiskey Aroma
Earthy

Mouth Feel:
Miniscule Carbonation
Heavy Bodied, But Not Syrupy
Hearty Mouth Feel
Sweet Beginning/Bitter Ending
Well Balanced
Soul Warming Beer
Alcohol Warmth

Taste is a delicious complex mix. The taste is pine and citrus upfront, with a hoppy wariness that finishes long. Has a high alcohol content, but it is masked very well. I love this beer and is definitely became one of my favorites. This beer gets one of my highest scores ever.
