After about 20 days of aging, I finally sat down with a chalice of Trappe Door for a serious tasting...
Hannah drew the label for me, and I changed them up in color, etc, kindof like some psychedelic beer Easter eggs.
Nov 1 @ cellar temp
Appearance - Pinky finger head into malty film, brown reddish tints in the pour; dark brownish brew, reddish tints up to light; dark
Smell - Woody, chocolate notes; banana; vanilla; alcohol
Mouthfeel/Taste - Smooth & sweet malty nose, slight caramel & definite chocolate flavor into nice hop bitterness; low carbonation; slight fruit finish, almost grape-like; slight spice
Drinkability - This one hides the alcohol well, I am feeling its 7.2 % only halfway through - tasty Dubbel-style, almost leaning towards a stout, though not that thick; definitely easy to drink, though potent!
