The taste is unbelievably smooth for a beer this strong, and lightly tart with flavors of caramel, toffee, oaked chardonnay, raisins, figs, sour cherry, amaretto, and a hint of funky Belgian yeast on a slick medium body. The finish is long and moderately low in bitterness, featuring notes of charred oak, bourbon, vanilla, salted caramel, herbal hops, and subtle cherry ending in a pleasant mild warmth on the palate. Overall, this beer is kinda ridiculous on paper; I think one time back in college I had an 18% stout and it was pretty hard to finish an entire bottle. This is the strongest beer I have ever had and yet is smoother than most beers over 10%. The bourbon barrel flavor is very prominent here, but the complex Belgian flavors can be found in the background, filling in and round out the flavor profile. I would 100% drink this beer again; I might have to pick up another bottle for aging&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Drink by: NO DATE LISTED<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","embm_styles":[10],"embm_groups":[],"embm_menus":[],"class_list":["post-4039","embm_beer","type-embm_beer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","embm_style-belgian-strong-dark-ale"],"embm_profile":{"malts":"Unknown","hops":"Unknown","additions":"Aged 1 year in Cooperstown Distillery whiskey barrels","yeast":"Belgian Ale","abv":19,"ibu":null},"embm_extras":{"availability":"","notes":"","beer_number":null},"embm_untappd":{"id":4642733},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/embm_beer"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4039"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4039\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4045,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4039\/revisions\/4045"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4042"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"embm_style","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_styles?post=4039"},{"taxonomy":"embm_group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_groups?post=4039"},{"taxonomy":"embm_menu","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_menus?post=4039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
