Beer Review #39: Goose Island Beer Grand Prestige Vatgerijpt
Style: Barleywine
ABV: 11.3%
My thoughts: This smells like Grim Bergen! It actually tastes a lot like Grim Bergen as well. Seriously this is a Grim Bergen clone, with a slightly higher ABV. It may have a bit rougher aftertaste. If you like Grim Bergen and want to get drunk faster, this is the way to go.
