Make no mistake, this is a complex, flavorful ale which has remnants of an American strong ale (without the strong) and an almost quad-like tinge. Lots of squaw bread and raisin, tempered with a nice stable level of brown-sugar and maltiness. This is not insanely hoppy like it's older brother, Tongue Buckler, but just bitter enough to keep your senses tuned to the beer's inherent complexity.
As a professional crappy-beer brewer, this is indeed not crappy and quite interesting; but, what seems more interesting is the process of making it. The bottle reads (in little detail) that this goes through a three hour boil, which seems like a pretty long boil-time by most brewing standards. Oddly, though, the ABV doesn't indicate that the long boil time produced some sugary reduction that you could pour over pancakes (nor does the appearance).
I would say definitely pick this up and see what you think, although I can't immediately think of a good time to drink the style. Oh... wait... while eating barbecue. Or, haggis?
