Allagash Day's End
Portland, Maine
9.5% ABV
Red Ale brewed with Lambrusco, Angelica Root, and Bitter Orange. Aged in Bourbon barrels.
Crispy, clean. Easy drinking. This barrel aged red is inspired by the "Boulevardier" cocktail. Notes of vanilla, oak, and to a lesser degree caramel are present.
I have to say, I don't think I've had too many beers quite like this one. I was pleasantly surprised by how well balanced all the flavors are. Sometimes you get a bourbon barrel aged beer and they try to make it into something unique and it just falls flat. Not this one. Super unique and super tasty. The high ABV is well masked, so drinker beware.
8.3/10
