This beer was in the St. Louis market years ago contract brewed by the owner of O'Fallon brewery before the brewery was opened. The Goat's Breath name has returned to a different recipe beer.
This beer has a strong malt aroma, with fresh bread and toast flavors. The color is a dark brown with some red highlights, very clear. There is little to no head to the beer, just a light ring around the edge.
The taste is malty sweet, with grain and toast flavors. The sweet flavors come across like molasses or syrup thick and sweet. There is a slight tannin flavor, but it is not overpowering. There is not much bitterness or hop flavors, a common trait for the style. The mouthfeel is thicker and smooth. The finish is malty with syrup flavors.
This is an fine beer, good malt flavors and a smooth mouthfeel. I would rather have O'fallon's 5 day IPA but I love the 5 Day.
