Dapper Detonator Mahogany Ale
Neighborhood Beer Co.

 

Dapper is a HABV (really high) beer that again as Joe always brilliantly does .. hide the taste of the alcohol. It is a smooth ale with a somewhat smooth finish. Not too sharp or bitter. ONLY HAVE ONE! OMG.

 

From the can from The Beer Store in Nashua, NH.

This beer is bomb time. Malty German goodness. Want another. Not much else to say.

From the 16 oz. can with a canning date of Jan 16, 2017. Sampled on February 9, 2017.

The pour is a nice looking amber-red with a quick lasting off-white head. It's gone in a wink.

The aroma emits characters of sweet caramel malts, sweet barley grain, wood, and a slight alcohol note.

The body is light to medium.

The taste has a kind of milky, malty sweetness with more emphasis on the barley grain followed by a warming, alcohol burn at the end. The 10.1% ABV is not hidden that's for sure but it is not overly boozy either. But you smell and taste it.

Can from Bert's
Pours a deep mahogany color thats brilliantly clear and a thin off white head that dissipates quickly. Spicy rasiny caramel on the nose with bits of earth and dark fruit. Flavor follows the aroma quite well adding a touch of warming alcohol to it. Pretty tasty beer.
