Irish Death 7.8%, Iron Horse Brewery, United States

Irish Death
7.8% American Strong Ale
Created by the brewery's founder, Quilter's Irish Death is what we call a dark, smooth, ale. Any attempt at classifying it just ends up sending beer geeks into a style guidelines diatribe. So forget style guidelines. Is your pursuit of micro beer about tasting copies of a style that fit guidelines anyways? (Neither is ours) We lovingly refer to it as beer candy. While tempting to session this beer, the name is a necessary reminder that despite the surprising approachability, this beer weighs in at a hefty 7.8% ABV.

I bought this Washington State beer while on my trip to Montana back in July. Had it sitting at a picnic table outside the teepee I was spending the night in. I think it may have been a little hot, resulting in a lower rating than it deserves. Short head, deep cola brown. Sweet multi aroma. Light but soft texture. First taste is light on flavor, deep malt with strong notes of roasted bitterness. So far, not that great. The finish arrives to tell a completely different story. First beer I've ever had where the finish is where you experience all the flavor. Strong raw molasses combining with coffee and dark chocolate. On top of it all, a warming liqueur-like alcohol. As the finish recedes only the bittersweet dark chocolate continues. This beer is much better than I remembered. Has stages, changes flavors, surprise ending. I really enjoy this beer.

Having a final beer before I call it a night in my teepee. No water, no electricity. Getting dark so I have to hurry. Very dark brown but not opaque. Moderate head that dissipated totally. Dark malt aroma. Thin texture. Flavor is a combination of brown sugar, raw dark chocolate, and a liqueur alcohol twist. Finish has minor sour notes and hints of coffee and chocolate, all very subdued.
