Beer-a-Day #150
I was thinking of doing something lighter, but the description sucked me in.
Vast in character, luscious and complex, this smooth, full-bodied ale reveals interwoven notes of maple, vanilla & oak.
According to the website, Immort Ale is made with peat-smoked barley, organic juniper berries, vanilla, and maple syrup; aged on oak and fermented with a blend of English and Belgian yeasts.
Oh my!
Clear mahogany with a strong head. Lots of aromatics, headlined with the aforementioned maple syrup and juniper berries. Lots of complex flavors; thick, with a decent amount of heat from the alcohol. This is definitely a sipping beer. I like it, and I’m going to go back and get more to cellar.
