Midnight Project Thor
A massive and powerful Braggot that strikes with the intensity of its namesake. At 14.5% ABV, this hybrid of honey and malt presents a complex tapestry of floral honey notes interwoven with deep, toasted malt character. The honey provides a rich, nectar-like sweetness and distinctive aromatics that harmonize with a sturdy backbone of caramel and bread-crust flavors. Despite its divine strength, the balance remains focused, delivering a warming, indulgent experience. It captures the essence of an ancient feast, where the floral complexity of honey meets the structural integrity of a strong ale, resulting in a bold, lingering finish.
Appearance. Deep copper to dark amber with an SRM range of 18-22. Pours with a thin, cream-colored collar of fine bubbles that dissipates quickly due to high alcohol content. Displays good clarity with a slight oily sheen from the honey density.
Aroma. High intensity aroma. Prominent floral and wildflower honey aromatics lead, followed by rich toasted bread, caramel, and a hint of dark fruit esters like plum. Significant but clean alcohol warmth is present, with very low earthy hop notes in the background.
Taste. Initial impression is a luxurious wave of honey sweetness and rich, bready malt. The flavor profile features layers of toffee and biscuit, balanced by a mild, supportive bitterness that prevents the finish from becoming cloying. Fermentation is clean with some light apple esters. The finish is long and warming, highlighting both the honey's floral character and the beer's malt depth.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and viscous with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate to low. Significant alcohol warmth is pervasive but well-integrated, providing a cozy, chest-filling heat without being harsh or fusel.
