Intro: A 500ml can, with a best before date of 14th December 2018. Poured into a Spiegelau IPA glass.
Appearance: A lightly hazy golden orange colour with a big three finger cream head that had pretty good retention and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: Peach, herbal, lemon peel and some pepper.
Taste: Peach, peach juice, lemon peel, lime and alcohol.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with moderate to low carbonation.
Overall: Aroma didn’t really have enough peach considering its name, and while there was nice peach in the taste, the booziness was quite apparent, and a little overpowering.

Intro: A 500ml can, with a best before date of 14th December 2018. Poured into a Spiegelau IPA glass.
Appearance: A hazy golden straw yellow colour with a big four finger white head that had good retention and left lots of nice sticky lacing.
Aroma: A little light, but there’s pineapple, cantaloupe, grapefruit, orange and a touch of pine.
Taste: Creamy sweetness like milk candy, peach, apricot, pineapple and papaya with a light citrus bitterness, grapefruit zest and pith.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: It tastes better than the aroma suggests. That creamy milk candy sweetness with tropical fruits just mixes really well together for my palate.

Style: American Imperial Stout
Other Notes: Malts – Aroma Malt, Cara Crystal, Cassonade Sugar, Chocolate, Flaked Oats, Pilsner, Roasted Barley and Smoked. Hops – Columbus and Simcoe

Brewer Description: (from To Øl webshop) The great warrior of Gath. The mighty champion of the Philistines. Embedded in ancient folklore and religion. Coming from the World of Old. His size and stature is not human. He is bigger. The armor of Goliat is black. Creamy black lacings. Stands with a towering height. He can grab elements from both earth and heaven. Earthy, roasted, notes from the earth. Warming, pungent, sweet notes from the skies. His heart is beating slowly, almost endlessly slow. This man is thought to be invincible!
