Bought in a 2 pack from my favorite store, ran about $8 a can. Tall boy. 13.7 ABV, pretty high. First beer I've had from Untitled Art Brewing. Poured out dark brown with a caramel twist strike of accentuated color to it. Head washed the surface then dissipated into a thin ring that floated in the center of the brew, which proceeded to dance around, spin, and seemed to bubble up from a continuous spring deep in the glass. It's a beer that's alive, I've never seen anything like it. It's like a miniature fountain. For minutes it continued to percolate. Love it. Taking a whiff now, heavy on the chocolate covered caramel, kind of like a Twix bar. Smells quite inviting, a faint tinge of sinister bourbon lurking in the background. Love it. Drinking now. Tastes like chocolate syrup, marshmallow, toffee, caramel, roasted coffee beans. The bourbon waits to appear until a good five seconds after the beer has been swallowed, and it just coats and envelops the mouth with a gentle heat. This is quite a satisfying beer. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with light carbonation, not overly thick or cloying. I'm going to be buying out my store of the rest of their cans over the next several weeks because this is just too good to leave on the shelf. Yes, it's a sweet beer, but well balanced and deeply satisfying.
