Appearance: black body with a half finger tan head
Aroma: their inspiration to make this beer was a dessert and
it smells like a tasty one at that. To me
I am thinking – cheese cake with some vanilla, chocolate and cinnamon on top –
oh, maybe tiramisu. Whichever it smells
very good.
Flavors: just as tasty as the nose, nice chocolate with a
touch of coffee, roasted vanilla bean, dusty cinnamon, lightly toasted malts, a
hint of hops on the back of the tongue – light spice
Mouthfeel: low carbonation, almost creamy, sweet but not in
your face sweet, lingering cinnamon and light bitterness
To the Point: very interesting, liquid dessert beer style, I
could not handle the Sweet 16 but this I would buy again because it is unique. One and done
