Firestone Walker Sucaba (13.0) ABV

Big boozy bourbon and American oak aromas combined with soft chocolate malty undertones. Complex malt flavors framed in oak, with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla, tobacco, coconut and just a touch of dark cherry. This is definitely a sipping beer, best served in a brandy snifter. This ale pairs well with dark chocolate and sturdy cheeses.

Note: Sucaba is the beer formerly known as Abacus until the Winter 2012 release.

Pours a dark ruby, some light coming through the glass with a small off-white head. It has a strong vanilla-bourbon aroma with undertones of dark fruits, molasses, chocolate, and some smoke. The alcohol is prominent in the nose. The taste has so many complex layers. Big notes of vanilla, caramel, and sweet chocolate. The bourbon and woody oak flavors are absolutely delicious. You get a slight alcohol burn in your throat, but otherwise they did a great job masking the 13% ABV. This is a Massive beer!
