Rogue Ales Dead n Dead Maibock at 8.2% ABV | 40 IBU (C$13.99 at Quarry Park Calgary Co-Op, 650 ml, packaged on 10-Aug-2017, acquired 12-Oct-2017, reviewed 14-Oct-2017)
Appearance: slightly hazy medium amber with one fat finger of creamy ivory head, good retention and lacing. (4/5) Aroma: whiskey, oak, caramel & toffee, dark fruit, vanilla. (8/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, moderate-high bitter. (8/10) Medium slightly slick body, moderate carbonation, sweetish warming finish. (4/5)
Big barrel notes on this. Somewhat surprisingly, despite the high(er) sweetness and the slightly slick body, this never gets cloying. Lots of fun, with a nice warming finish. (16/20)
