Drukket på Brooklyn Brewery-eventen hos Ringnes, 4.mai 2011.
Nydelig gyllen farge på denne. Mye maltlukt og en skarp alkoholaroma som lover godt. Smaken er først masse honning og søte toner. Deretter trer en litt skarpere alkoholsmak frem før den avrundes og etterlater en litt bitterskarp smak i munnen. Garrett Oliver anbefalte å lagre denne. Godt tips.
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brooklyn Monster Ale is a classic barley wine, a style of ale originally brewed by the butlers to the English and American aristocracy. It is brewed from three mashes of heirloom British malt and spiced with aromatic American Willamette, Cascade and Fuggle hops.
After four months of aging, it has a magnificent burnished copper color, an aroma redolent of sherry, citrusy hops and fruit, a soft, warming, complex palate, a spiritous finish, and a strength of 10.8%.
It is vivacious when young, but will age gracefully for many years, becoming more complex over time.
Food Matches
Brooklyn Monster Ale is a fine accompaniment to cheeses, ice cream, flourless cakes, crème brulee and good cigars.
