A long time ago, at a Lizard kinda far away...



Beer Name: Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron (#151)
Style: American Brown Ale
Country: USA
Size: 10 oz draft
ABV: 11.9
From the book:
A bold brown ale aged in Dogfish Head's 10,000 gallon Palo Santo wood brewing vessels. The Palo Santo wood comes from Paraguay and means "holy tree". It is used in South American wine production. The Palo Santo wood lends a caramel and vanilla complexity to this beer while it is aging. The 10,000 gallon brewing vessels are the largest wooden brewing vessels built in America since before Prohibition.

Another high alcohol mini-beast, this time at the Macedonia location for a change of venue. Pretty solid beer, loved the caramel flavors that were apparent throughout the drink. Unlike the last high alcohol brew, this one was good from start to finish.

7/10
