Life & Limb
This one is a winner!!! Not the usual hoppy Sierra Nevada offering but impresive all the same. Pours a dense black or dark mahogany color with reddish highlights only getting through at the bottom of the glass. Light tan head with fairly good retention and some lacing. Smell is of maple syrup and malts. Tastes good. Dark fruits, mostly cherries (reminds me a little of Ommegang 3 Philosophers), malts and maple syrup. Mouthfeel is very rich and creamy. No hint of alcohol. It goes down real smooth. Drinkability is good for a beer of this octane. Complex enough for this to be a slow sipper, but creamy and tasty enough to sip a lot of it. Very nice!!
