Year of New Beer: Brick Kiln, Jackie O's Pub & Brewery (OH)

Written By: Dion on 05/27/2015

Really nice nose on this beer as raisins, figs, and even some grape skin vie for attention against a backdrop of brown sugar and floral hops. On the tongue is a caramel sweetness that is planted upon a firm bitterness and alcohol bite. A little hot, I'm betting a year in the cellar would prove beneficial. That said, I wouldn't turn down the chance to drink another one without the age.
