Eccentricity
Driftwood Brewery

Serving: 650 ml bottle poured into a 2 dl glass.

Appearance: Pours cloudy light brown/amber with a fleeting off white head.

Smell: Malty sweet aroma with plenty of grains, toffee, vanilla and subtle spice.

Taste: Warming malty goodness, spiced, boozy with dark fruit, toffee and a little tobacco.

Mouthfeel: Silky smooth, medium body and softer carbonation.

Overall: A nice sipper at the end of a cold night.

Poured from fridge temp. Pours a nice dark orange/light brown with quickly fading head. I'm pretty excited about this one since it's aged on amburana spirals. The nose is fantastic. Black licorice, wheat, and a huge malty presence. Figs, blackberries, toffee, vanilla. The taste is wonderful. It reminds me of the 3 Bean Stout (including tonka beans) from Lervig that I love very much. This is spicy as well - nutmeg and cinnamon. There is almost a hint of peppery spice as well. I honestly can't see this as a wheat wine, but it's great regardless. As it warms I get more of a leathery note - almost a touch of pipe tobacco that has dug itself into a leather arm chair. The mouthfeel is medium bodied - definitely not the thickness of a stout, but right in line with a wheat wine. Overall, I am 100% a fan of this. I will definitely try to get more.

Delicious dark amber floral boozy glass of candy. Amburana spirals cotton candy for grownups: melts on the tongue and scorches on the way down. Right in my wheelhouse! Funny thing that I only have a sweet tooth for strong ales.
