If Your Thirsty, This Isn't Going To Quench Your Thirst
Taste was a start of bitter, but then blended into a nice chocolate cherry spiced flavor. It has a high abv, but the beer did not have a alcoholic taste you would expect. This beer was quite smooth and had a full palate feel. This beer has low drink ability, because it is a beer that has some balls. I classify this beer as a desert beer, instead of cheese cake have this.
