I have been dying to try this brew since I picked up a case of them a while back. the newest addition to the DFH family of brews is Palo Santo Marron (literal translation is Holy Tree Brown). It pours like liquid night, with little ot no head that is a creamy (quickly dissipating) oatmeal cookie brown. The aroma is a slightly oaky, vanilla heavy malt. An unfiltered brown ale aged in handmade Paraguayan Palo Santo wood brewing vessel's, each at 10K gallons each (the largest wooden vessels since Prohibition). A wonderful very full mouthfeel and taste that is driven by the 12%abv. Malt, vanilla, bittering hop, rich desert, oh and 12%abv. This is a supremely built beer and yes I said built, literally from the ingredients to the aging vessels.0026hrs-- an hour and 15 minutes later I just finished, this beer is HEAVY!
