All That Ales You Beer Review EP.16 Sierra Nevada Dogfish Head Life & Limb

American Strong Ale 10.2% abv

Life & Limb is a collaborative effort, the brainchild of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. Life & Limb is a 10% ABV strong, dark beer that defies style characteristics- brewed with pure maple syrup from the Calagione family farm in Massachusetts and estate barley grown on the Grossman "farm" at the brewery in Chico, CA. The beer is alive with yeast-a blend of both breweries' house strains-bottle conditioned for added complexity and shelf life, and naturally carbonated with birch syrup fresh from Alaska.

Damnit... been looking for a video that shows the PROPER way to open this....

just twist the metal "seal" and pop the cork?

[allthatalesyou]

@mutez0r what do you mean proper way? Ideally you want to twist the cage off 6 spins is traditional, then slowly remove the cork....the quieter you can make the pop the better because you preserve that C02.

[stixs887]

where do you buy your beer from

[allthatalesyou]

@stixs887 it really depends on what I am looking for, but my local store is the Cranbury buyrite in NJ

[Tantrum777]

I almost forgot, St Bernardus Christmas ale is fantastic. Have you had had it fresh?

[allthatalesyou]

@Tantrum777 Yes I have, this is a beer I always get when it is released in the winter LOVE it.

[mutez0r]

@mutez0r Wow! Guess so... didn't expect the "pop" to be so violent like a wine is! Nice....

now to watch the review... pouring into a snifter now.

@Tantrum777 Really? To be honest I like a little bit of that booze there, for me it came of as more of a warmth rather then fusel notes.

[Tantrum777]

You liked this a lot more then I did, I also got a ton of alcohol on the nose and taste that really hurt the beer for me.
