Widow Maker Black Ale
by Paul Arthur on Feb.07, 2010, under ale, beer
Background: Beer, probably made with molasses. Also, it’s named after a pneumatic drill that killed miners with dust inhalation-related illnesses.
Nose: Subdued, slightly metallic, not much going on.
Taste: Slight molasses flavour, light tartness, smooth biscuity malt.
Overall: The can isn’t lying when it calls it light bodied, and a slight metallic twinge isn’t helping. It might make a decent quenching summer beer, but I’m not loving it.
