Black Butte XX

Craft beer is one of my passions.

Last month was the unveiling of Black Butte XX. A very BIG beer. I am having trouble defining some characteristics for it, because everyone of the words I think of will not due justice deserved. Dark smooth chocolate, but not sweet, mixed with some intense coffee produces an almost mocca like flavor with a very viscous texture.

Tame IBU at 55, and Alcohol around 11%. Price is a factor at around $10 a 22oz bottle.

It being so rich, I couldn't drink it everyday. As a treat you should deffinitly give this beer a try.
