French Toast Double IPA - Decadent Ales
French Toast is an 8.6% Alcohol/Volume Double IPA brewed by Decadent Ales. It was released in mid-October at Over Shores Brewery in East Haven, CT as part of the 'Twelve Percent Beer Project'. This tasty IPA is hopped with Simcoe and Mosaic hops. It is then brewed using real Vermont maple syrup, stove-top caramelized sugars and powdered cinnamon to give it an extraordinary flavor of French Toast. These are unfortunately very rare but if you manage to get your hands on some of these it is best to save them for a chilly day and to savor every drop. It's like drinking liquid French Toast... with a high alcohol content.

I thought it was very cool how this beer was released by a Brooklyn-based brewer at a CT brewery. On this day, the Twelve Percent Beer company released 3 different beers by 3 different brewers. They were all very wintry but differed in style. This French Toast Double IPA is perfect for a cold winter night, the maple cinnamon flavors warm the soul with every sip. There could not have been a better name for this beer. It was absolutely delicious. As someone who loves maple cinnamon french toast, this beer was amazing. But I could see how it may be over-powering to someone who does not have the same opinion. Overall it is a very different beer, full of flavor, and I was very happy to be drinking it.
Happy #BeerSaturday
