18th Anniversary Wood Aged Double IPA
May 8, 2012 The mouthfeel? Fantastic and complex. A cross between flan and nougat; one can definitely taste the vanilla imparted from the oak. Chewy and resinous like a true DIPA. Slightly hot - the 10 percent ABV is not hidden - and with a dried fruit-accentuated finish this sipper of a beer could easily cross over into barleywine territory. A stellar offering. -->Pours copper with a thin head that quickly dissipates. A very muted aroma with just a touch of hop fragrance. The mouthfeel? Fantastic and complex.
