Outer Banks Brewing Santa's Little Sledgehammer
Outer Banks Brewing Station bottles some of their stuff, although it's not widely available. And, it's stupidly expensive at 8 bucks a pint. It better be freakin great. It pours out a very dark brown with almost no head. The nose is very sweet with sugar, caramel and spice. The flavor is quite unique. There's a lot of sweet sugar, burnt caramel, prune and spice. The aftertaste is very strong, but it doesn't linger unduly. The body is huge and it has gobs of yummy alcohol. Still, I don't know what to think of this. The flavors are odd, it's too sweet and the prune flavor is weird. Even so, I kind of like it, but I'm not sure how many other people will. For the price it's not worth it unless the description sounds great to you. I guess this goes on the nice list, just not very high.
