"The Convict" Australian Strong Ale

The Convict Australian Strong Ale
640ml
7.2%

Recently tried a bottle of the latest limited release brew from the Gage Roads Brewery, named "The Convict". In short its a beast and certainly not for the faint hearted! At 7.2% alcohol it is certainly one of the more alcoholic brews around, however this isn't simply a regular beer with amped up alcohol. The brewers state that they use 6 speciality malts and 4 local hops, so evidently "The convict" is as full flavoured as they come, the beer is a coppery colour with a strong frothy head. at $8.50 a bottle its a real bargain and well worth seeking out.

9/10
