The Sixth Glass

Post by jpsherman »

This beer is made by Boulevard, and comes as a 4 pack of 12oz bottles for $10.99 at my store.

As a quadrupel ale it comes in at 10.5% ABV, yet it does not finish hot like some strong ales. It has kind of a malty chocolate flavor that warms you up a bit at the end, without tasting of alcohol.

This might become my go-to special occasion winter beer, it is excellent!
Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain.
Quaintest thoughts — queerest fancies,
Come to life and fade away:
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today.

– Edgar Allan Poe

I haven't heard of it. I will check it out in a few weeks when I can drink beer again.
