Russian River Brewing Company Mortification
What the brewers say
“Notes of raisins, caramel, and spice with a rich and full-balanced finish.”
What our panel thought
“Subtle nose offers some rich malt with some toasty malt and mild alcoholic warmth. Some spice hints after warming a bit. Taste adds some raisin notes along with a light hop balance. Dryish, given the residual body.”
What our editors thought
“Classic ‘dark strong’ aroma with light nutty tones and subtle dark fruit in the distance. Light chocolate and red fruit in the flavor meander a bit before finding a dark-chocolate bitter finish.”
