Dogfish Head Immort Ale

Immort Ale. Imortale. Imortal. Get it?
N’yuk n’yuk!
Hello? Hello, is this microphone on?
Wow, you’re a tough crowd. Maybe Dogfish Head should just stick to beer.
Moving right along, I pop the top of this little brown bottle and take that obligatory sniff. It smells like sugar infused malt and hops. It smells good. It’s making my mouth water.
I put the bottle to my lips and tip it up. It tastes sweet, thick, malty — like Malt-o-Meal malty — it’s fairly smooth but, not beautiful-woman-backside smooth. Just smooth. Smooth and hoppy, with nice tangy citrus overtones. It leaves with a lip-smacking maple finish.
It’s too sweet to be Holy. But, it’s plenty sweet enough to be groovy, and with 11% alcohol, it’s strong enough too.
It’s also gone already.
