Tasting Notes
The third in the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse series, Famine brings you closer to the dark side. Black and chocolate malts were used sparingly so as to not get in the way of the wonderful dark fruit esters characteristic to the Ardennes yeast strain. The nose gives you toffee, dark fruit, and raisin, while a creamy vanilla rounds out the middle. Fruit and ripe banana flavors hang on the tongue, finishing bright.
This may be the third of the series, but I bought all four at the same time, and Black Famine happened to be the first one I cracked open. It is awesome. Really, really awesome. The Four Horsemen series was a fairly limited release, but if you can still find this one? Don't hesitate. Pick it up. It's awesome.
