I read about this beer a few months ago, thought it sounded very interesting but couldn't find it anywhere. Well I found it about 40 miles away so took a roadtrip today. Picked up a couple of 22's.

It's the most interesting different beer I've ever tried I'm pleased to report. Drinking it room temp in a pint glass. Pours black with one finger head. Smells like coconut and curry. Taste is the same with slight undertones of coffee and chocolate. After swallowing a creeping heat kicks in that builds slowly.

It met my expectations exactly. Think spicy coconut curry taste - in a beer. I think it's pretty awesome. Wouldn't do more than one in a sitting but quite good paired with the right meal. I had it with sushi.

Now to try and clone...

Sounds more like a spice pack than a beer, all you need to is the fish and rice. I love Thai food and would try one if I could find it.

I bet that is going to be a challenge clone with so many different spices to match.

Well the clone is gonna happen, so so long as it doesn't turn out terrible I'll beer mail ya...
