The South has done it again. I have just got done sampling some of the finest beer I have ever tasted. Below is a brief over view of the Holy Mackerel Beers offerings. The Mack In Black is an Imperial Black Ale.
Dark chocolate barley and roasted grains paired with American hops, and Belgian yeast create a mouthful of flavors. Think dark chocolate and espresso with a very subtle hint of pomegranate. Caramel and smoky flavors in the middle and only a hint of berry in the finish. Bold yet not heavy, and a perfect accompaniment to many fine foods. Try with oysters, chocolate, triple cream brie with jam or Bbq ribs. Makes a great beer to create beer soup with.
Vintage dated, try stocking a few away to compare with newer additions. At 8% ABV. this ale is suitable for aging 1-2 years.
