Beer #151 - Schloss Eggenberg Samichlaus Classic

This beer was once the strongest in the world. Originally brewed in Switzerland by Hurlimann, it is now brewed under license in Austria. The beer is brewed but once a year and aged for 10 months before being released. This was the last beer on the Whole Foods festive beers tasting list and by this point I was pretty worse for wear. Ideal time to crack open a 14% doppelbock, then! This stuff is absolutely crazy, very sweet and syrupy, almost like a dessert wine. It was so far out of my frame of reference that I don't think I can review it properly.
