400!

The Lost Abbey - Angels Share - 11.5% - This is their ale aged in brandy barrels (they also have a version aged in bourbon barrels). There is zero carbonation to this beer. I am drinking this from a brandy snifter which is appropriate as this is more of a brandy than a beer. This is not a chugging beer by any strecth but a very nice sipper. I like the molasses taste which is very strong and if you swirl it around a bit in you mouth you really get the brandy taste. Got this from Table and Vine ( a trip is due up there shortly). Glad I grabbed this.

Shortly (maybe even today) there is going to be a marked shift towards stouts. 401 is going to be a separate review though as it is from a local brewer!
