HAD 163: Espolon

Um, what are these accents on the bottle? Oh . . . it’s Spanish. Are we doing a Tequila episode? Oh it’s Espolon? Awesome. Look we aren’t always big tequila fans, but this one is pretty great. So let’s buckle up and get ready for a crazy episode, and if you have the stuff on hand, maybe make a poloma, and Have a Drink.

WHAT WE’RE DRINKING:

Brittany & Christopher

  • Beverage: 2019 Double Oaked Mastadon

  • Brand: Rhinegeist Brewery

  • Style: Belgian Style Dark Ale

  • Strength: 14%

  • Other (IBU, description, etc.):  28 IBUs | A looming leviathan of mammoth complexity, this malty megafauna bellows notes of white pepper, banana, peach and apricot. Hibernating first in freshly used bourbon barrels and then red wine barrels, this beast of a Belgian Style Dark Ale gains an epoch’s worth of tannic depth and oaky wisdom.

  • Score (BA, Untappd, etc.): 88 (BA)

*Also Espolon Repasado
