Not really, but its Texas… In February… And Its Snowing! Needless to say I am working from the house today.

Type: Abbey / Dark Ale

First Impressions: Yum, hints of coffee and chocolate, very smooth

Review: This beer has 10.5% alcohol but you would not know it from the smoothness. The mfg. website states that it could be used as a replacement for coffee and I agree, after dinner coffee that is. This is no 7am wake up call. There is no bitterness to this beer and it almost has a wine smell to it, my wife who hates beer found this to be drinkable. I don’t know if I would like it in 110 degree Texas heat but as a Fall or Winter beer this one is great.

Last Impressions:  Dark and complex. Your last drink is a good as the first. Go forth and find this beer!

Drinkability: 10 out of 10

Drunkability: 6 out of 10… It’s just too dark and too expensive to get drunk with although the 10.5% alcohol does provide a nice mellow feeling after a glass
