Notes:
Just finished coaching an hour of U11 boys basketball and it is time to wind down.
What I've got here is a medium gravity porter than has the basics for a good, pub quality brew. The first thing I thought of when sipping this was how much it tastes like Backhand of God. Certainly not as refined and polished as that beer, but it has a good base. It has a bit if a sour taste up front, maybe from the grapes, and finishes quite bubbly. Maybe tad less carbonation would bring out the flavors a bit better. There is a bit of sweetness and some vanilla in the finish, but it doesn't leave a silky aftertaste.
It's got a bit if a dank taste, but that's likely from the gaminess of the beer.
I'm going to guess an ABV of about 5.5 ish.
Later Turbanator.
