Life & Limb
#2 on Draft at Whip In, Austin TX A - Darker than I anticipated, pours dark brown into my snifter with some ruby highlights in the light. Two fingers of thick tan head that has really nice retention and moderate lacing. S - Mostly maple syrup, molasses, and roasted malts. Subtle notes of candied sugar, wood, dark fruit and hops with a touch of alcohol. T - (Even sweeter on tap) Roasted sweetness is what keeps coming to mind. Caramel malts and then a wave of maple/molasses sweetness, mild bitterness throughout and dark fruit notes linger on the palate as it washes away. Mild alcohol burn also lingers on the palate. M - Carbonation is a little on the bright side which takes away from the depth IMO. O - Overall this is a really tasty offering that should be shared with friends. Looking forward to see what a little age does for this one.
