Rehn Bier - Olde Strong Ale

This ale is a limited edition, numbered, release that promises a rich full ale taste.

The beer is full of rich toffee tones that demand attention on the pallet and nose. At 3.7 standard drinks per 500 ml bottle it is not to be taken lightly as the ABV is 9.3%. My tounge enjoyed the rich flavours that develop as you saviour each drop, not unlike wine. For the beer conisour it will be well worth the trip to the Barrossa Markets to get some. The head drops off quickly due to the low hop in the brew but this goes well with the toffee finish that is more Olde European charm that says "reflect and Enjoy". An exceptional beer that will really appeal to the dark ale enthusiast. Score a perfect 10!
