A Note on This Beer

Deep in the shadows of Washington’s Olympic Mountains, a giant slumbers. 

But, don’t worry — this is one goliath you’ll definitely want to meet. The Giant Made of Shadows Belgian Strong Ale (2020) from the GABF Gold Medalists at Silver City! 

This big, limited-release beer only awakens once a year, so craft fans are already on high alert for today’s brand-new 2020 vintage. 

One sip of its otherworldly layers of coffee, caramel, and dark fruit notes may inspire you to call all your craft-loving friends to tell them about this legendary Giant from the enchanting land known as the Evergreen State. 

And, even though you didn’t have to go on a quest to get it, this 9.9% ABV brew’s so limited you can get away with saying you did. 

Normally, this Belgian Strong Ale doesn’t leave the Northwest. But don’t fret, ‘cause we struck a special deal with the brewers (we’ll really miss our firstborn children) to get a tiny 50-case stash for Tavour members. 

*Silver City sits on a treasure chest of 16 Great American Beer Festival medals!

Nice Belgian strong ale. Very smooth and easy to drink even though ABV is 9.9%. Definitely better if you let it warm up a bit.

This Belgian strong ale runs 9.9% and boasts aromatics of dates, fresh baked bread and rich brandy!... pours as perfectly as any Belgian strong ale ever has... notes of dark bread, French roast coffee, brandied stone fruits... earthy and rich.. medium bodied... between crisp and silky. God this is good! It gets better as it warms to room temp... it's not the slightest bit heavy and the powerful 9.9% is definitely hiding in the shadows... this is a barrel aged 2020 vintage I've had nesting in the cellar and it drinks so deceptively now! I'd have a hard time guessing this was a 6.9% if blindfolded. This is simply liquified dark roasted bread and it gets more and more inviting in the aftertaste, which really lingers! A relaxing and phenomenal drink! Would highly recommend to everyone and would only share if I had two!... In my top two or three Belgian strong ales ever! 😁🍻👍 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
