Was at the liquor store yesterday and got New Belgium Brewing's 2 Degrees Below Winter Ale and 1554 Black Ale. The 2 Degrees Below was ok but the the 1554 Black Ale is great. I defenitely recommend the Black Ale.
this aint too bad. it opens with a hint of coffee, that is if you're looking for that aroma. otherwise, it's a little malty at that.
taste is good, some maltiness in it with a bite of coffee of the premium kind. that would be Hawaii's very own Kona Coffee, if you ever tasted that by itself, you would know what I mean.
Thanks for the info. Used to live near a Bevmo in Cali - But none here in Tenn. - But, they do offer it on the web site!!! You have made me a happy man... lol - Thank You - I've had some 'Arrogant Ba$tard' (the beer that is) all I have to say is... Oh Damn!

FYI, this is not my photo which is similar to the ones I had in the past. I drank it out of the bottle.
this is very malty at the opening with a twinge of caramel.
upon downing it, the taste resembles a very dark beer. very malty with heavy caramel presence that makes it a bit sweet. it also gives a biting character that mellows into a sweetened deal.
I'll have to try it from the mug in the near future. it may turn out differently due to more carbonization released, making it less bitter.
*btw, I read somewhere that McEwan's is dropping this beer from the North American distribution list, so if you can, hit your favorite store and try to grab a pack or three.

I had that at the microbrew fest last year. that IS some heavy stuff.
good beer, too.
Just polished off my first 2007 bigfoot. Same old, same old... which is pretty damn ****ing good. I can't wait to let it age for about 6 months- perfect when you're grilling in the summer time and bust out some aged barley-wine style ale. Still my favorite barley-Wine style ale right behind Stone Old Guardian and Alesmith Old Numbskull.
p.s. I've been a bad beer reviewer, I've probably had about 50 new beers since the last time I posted in here and I never think to lay down a decent review. My bad.
