"A fine aroma of mellow fresh ground white pepper among cherry berry chocolate malts... a dash of clove hints of banana white flesh. Very rich and creamy in the mouth. Big deep dark fruity malts chocolate drizzled rum soaked cherry chocolate figgy pudding. Old slightly vinuous musty berries give way to a yeasty spice, white pepper up front clove/cinnamon way back.''

:scratchhe :dunno:

Sounds pretty good. I started my night off with a Rogue Uberfest Pilsner and am enjoying a Newcastle as I type.

Dude i thought you were mocking a review on this beer until I clicked the link for it. What exactly is banana flesh? And does it go with Big deep dark fruity malts chocolate drizzled rum soaked cherry chocolate figgy pudding. It may be a good beer, but their reviewer must have been on speed or something. I've never seen so many adjectives used in one sentence in my life.:hysterica

I was mocking the review(er). It sounded more like a new flavor of Ben & Jerry's ice cream than beer. It's probably the same guy who finds pencil lead, aloe and Madagascar vanilla in cigars ...

 

[dpricenator]

Yeah, just reading that review out loud is comedy. I just ordered a couple, I'll let you know what white banana flesh tastes like in a week or so.

 

[jwintosh]

ditto!!

 

[joshua]

Well at that price its worth a try. Never seen this one at any local places.

Even though it's $7 a bomber, I couldn't resist...

LOL What a great description! I was laughing too hard to finish as I read it to Jesse. I'm really interested to find out what it tastes like now.

 

[CWS]

Worked didnt it? :stretchgr God I love good marketing.

Monks know how to make some freakin awesome booze. Some of those are hard to come by cause they aren't mass produced. I heard about one where you have to hang out at the abbey and wait in line to pick up a bottle.

I press my liquor store to purchase whenever I can...so far I haven't had a supply problem just a money problem, as it's $6.50/0.3L.

Me too accompanied by a Padron 3000. Good compliment to a good thick brew.

 

[Eric]

Drinking my first now after a hard day at work. It's quite lovely but it needs to warm up still before I can taste the nuances. Never had any burn like this in my beer before so this will be interesting...

 

[Eric]

It finished like toasted marshmallows! Incredible beer. I ended up drinking 3 bottles that night...
