What's going on everybody welcome back to Fairgrounds TV, I'm Peter Moeller.
Today we have, oh boy, Merry Mischief. Drew a blank all of a sudden.
It's a new brew from Sam Adams. 9 percent alcohol.
Gonna use my little Gulden Draak bottle opener. 9 percent alcohol, it's the new holiday 22
series that they're doing. I'm very excited about this.
Pouring like mud, they um, it's a gingerbread stout forgot to tell you.
Gingerbread stout, let's check this out. Beautiful, very deep dark tan head, very dark
I can't even see through it. Very fine carbonation.
Fine to medium carbonation, let's give it a sniff.
*inhales* Very spicy.
*inhales* Almost, I'm getting a lot of clove, and a
little bit, and a bunch of ginger. It's actually reminding me of the Hitachino,
their ginger ale that they put out, don't know if they put it out anymore, smells like
that. Let's give it a sip.
*sips* Not too thick on the palate.
I'm getting a very malty side, and you're also getting those clove, cinnamon, nutmeg,
spices, with the ginger right in the front of the nose.
*sips* It's good.
It's got like a fresh kind of ginger, like, hint to it.
I'm not the biggest fan of that, but I know a couple people that are going to love this.
It's not as gingerbready as you would want it to be.
It's definitely something to check out. It's very different you don't find gingerbread
ales, gingerbread stouts I mean, very often. Something brand new, something to check out.
Expand your horizons. Enjoy, cheers.
