Year of New Beer: Barrel Aged Abraxas, Perennial Artisan Ales (MO)

Written By: Dion on 10/15/2015

Rarely does a beer render me nearly speechless. And rarely do I consider giving a beer a perfect score...but this is as close as it gets. Rich chocolate on the nose, with traces of cinnamon spice and oak. On the tongue, all bets are off...this tastes like a cinnamon roll with a bourbon cream cheese frosting. Sticky, lightly charred on the edges and the faintest spiced oak bite. This is hands down the best beer I've tasted all year, and probably top 5 in my life.
