I knew Texas Big Beer had another beer coming out soon, and now it’s out. And it’s gooooood! Very nice, a tasty wheatwine/barleywine hybrid, but it’s really more of a wheatwine. And it’s a big, topping off at 11.39% ABV.
It pours an orange, almost red color, kind of a deep amber. The head and lacing weren’t that impressive, but there’s ample carbonation, giving it a creamy mouthfeel that’s almost chewy.
Aroma is this one’s strong point, with a great fruity, floral treat for your nose. Flavor begins with a solid malt/wheat backbone, a good balancing dose of very floral hops, and plentiful fruitiness.
Very enjoyable, hats off to Texas Big Beer once again. I can’t wait to try their new IPA that’s coming out!
