AdamChandler (3920) – Enfield, New Hampshire, USA – NOV 28, 2015<\/p>\n

Very small bottle thanks to AFH for sharing. This is so tiny.<\/p>\n

A – Poured carefully and it looks very thick. no head of course.<\/p>\n

S – That smell. So dense, thick, burnt sugar, caramelized sugar, malty with liquor boozy vanilla and fig and twizzlers.<\/p>\n

T – There is a definite tobacco taste here with candy sugar, caramel and toffee and a ton of dark fruit. there\u2019s even this baked apple taste as well. Is this beer?<\/p>\n

M – Very oily, very sweet, boozy with this sticky candy finish<\/p>\n

O – Very interesting. Pushing the envelope on hyper aged beers and it\u2019s really interesting that an NH brewery did this. I appreciate their efforts. Six years may be too long but it\u2019s insanely awesome they did this.<\/p>\n
