30th Anniversary - Fritz And Ken's Ale
This thing opened with a very loud 'pop' of the cork. Holy cow. Pours a very dark brown, almost black. The head is off brown, dense and soft. Good lacing on the way down. Coffee and almond aroma. Some black plum and overripe banana bits. A bit boozy, too. Thin coffee and cocoa taste overall. Some flashes of prune, licorice and clove spice. This is a complex beer, but I don't think it has matured yet. The alcohol is detected and seems to thin out the body a bit. I have another bottle and will pop that one later on.
