Palo Santo Marron

Brown Ale - Imperial / Double

An unfiltered, unfettered, unprecedented brown ale aged in handmade wooden brewing vessels. The caramel and vanilla complexity unique to this beer comes from the exotic Paraguayan Palo Santo wood from which these tanks were crafted. Palo Santo means "holy tree" and its wood has been used in South American wine-making communities.

I believe a Delaware beer is appropriate right now. Haven’t had this one is a good while. That wood aging is fierce!

It’s very well balanced and I sort of like the obvious herbal wood notes.

Very strong taste, but it should be at 12%! Watching the NFC Championship. Don’t call it a comeback!

This was the 2015 vintage. I’ve been digging into my seller and enjoying every moment. Still one of my favorite beers.

Bottled on 2/11/2008 so 13th birthday today. Probably the last bottle in the world. Held up well. Still very drinkable. Maybe a little cardboard, but not unexpected at this age.

Yep. It's in there. A bit sour. Very warming. Caramel and toffee. Will drink again.

Immense nose of overripe apples, cocoa powder, tart cherries and vintage port. Taste is explosion of aged fruitcake, Black Forest torte, tiramisu and Mexican chocolate. Palo Santo wood offers unique tannic bite to an already outstanding brew. Blown. Away!

I accidentally bought this while ago, I thought it would be a regular brown but this was a barrel aged brown that I was not ready for. I hate this beer.
