What Our Panel Thought
Aroma: “Crackery malt up front with some underlying banana, orange, and pear. A bit of alcohol spice. Low nose otherwise.”
Flavor: “The flavor is much bigger than the aroma. Apple juice up front with light burnt honey character followed by dates, raisins, and a touch of vanilla. Light sweetness throughout that intertwines with a light alcohol warming at the end of the sip. Some clove notes. Finishes dry.”
Overall: “The intensity of the malt and esters matches nicely with the alcohol in the finish, balancing the sweetness. Intoxicating, but not engaging.”
What the Brewers Say
“Complex fruit and spice nose, a zesty middle, a bitter and crisp finish. Named after the devil.”
