Shockingly, this barleywine from acquisition masters, Green Flash, is completely legit. Sepia Frumento has a heft to the body with a sticky spun caramel candy apple goodness. The residual sugars never go overboard and exhibit a Skor bar type of decadence. Barrel profile is slightly bittering aspect but that may be coming the the completely unnecessary fruit additions. When you’ve come to expect complete garbage like Sleeping With Shaggy, this beer comes out the gates as a welcome and refreshing surprise. As a corollary, the pours at Surly Goat are getting out of hand.
Are they serving out of eye droppers yet?
