Aroma de vinho do porto, cereja e framboesa. Dulçor moderado. Sabor de melado de cana, cereja e aquele vinho do porto delicioso. Isso aqui está um espetáculo. Valeu a experiência!

Huge booze and syrup. Smooth raspberries. Distinct Belgium yeast influences. Subtle fruit cranberry and tart cherry. Goes well with roast quail and endive. Maybe a cigar and campfire.

A gift from my brother-in-law Dustin Y. - the last time I had this I was impressed by its complexity but rocked by its boozy back end. The aging of this beer is a total game changer. Thank you Dustin!

It’s like framboise and 120 had a baby. This baby jumped into farmers hop field and passed out drinking rum. Boozy. But expected.

At 18%, of course the nose is boozy😂! A very delicate raspberry flavor, soft & delightful. Some malt pulls through, maybe vanilla. It warms all the way down to the good spots! Thank you Meg & Jon for this wonderful treat!👊🍺😉🥰😘😘

Tastes like a raspberry barley wine. Sweet fruits and a smooth mouthfeel. Still feeling the heat on this big ale!! Held up well.

Sean and I are definitely having opposite taste/smell sensations...that being said, though, this is a damn banger. I get way more raspberry in the beer itself rather than in the nose...relatively little alcohol bite for 18%

Delicate and sweet raspberry on the nose, but you can tell there is a punch in your face waiting behind it. Rich, bold, sweet raspberry on top of a floral malty Belgian strong foundation. Smooth as hell, and only slight alcohol esters. Marvelous.

First sip was ridiculously hot, but better afterwards. Came into its own as it warmed to room temperature. Not a bad 5 year aging.

Dark raspberry nose. The plate is just a massive hodgepodge of dark, aged, smooth dark fruits and those aged undertones of caramel and oak.

Hop bitterness is present but dulled. Juicy raspberries are mildy tart and a little bitter. What a treat.
