Eleven
A double deuce poured into a snifter glass. I have had this one before, but this is the first time reviewing. A: Very thick and creamy orange/rust color with a very full head, about an inch high. Think of the colors of University of Texas. Lots of carbonation flowing right away. S: Sweet, caramel flavor mixed with very pungent hop odor. A little bready as well, malt is noticeable too. T: Citrus flavor up front, but overwhelmed immediately by a strong alcohol flavor. Hint of a caramel flavor in the back, but still overpowered by the strong alcohol content. I almost want to say there is a hint of a Grand Marnier flavor in the very back end of ths beer. I wish it was 150 year old... M: Strong carbonation bite leads to a nice smoothness, then fades to a dry, bitter feeling on the tongue. Definitely a very heavy beer. D: Its gonna be a little tough to get this one down, but I'm sure I'm up to the task. Overall a very hearty beer, I'd suggest splitting one to really appreciate it. I think after an entire 22 I'll have had enough for sure.
