Life And Limb


Brewed by; Sierra Nevada & Dogfish Head

Bottled by; Sierra Nevada

Out of; Chico, CA (USA)

10.2 ABV


C(clarity). Absence of light from the side, but can actually see hue when light enters from the top

H(hue). Really, really, really dark amber

N(nose). Sweet, Syrupy, Hint of Hoppiness.

Dirty Dos: Wow. Nothing funny about this beer. Sierra and Dogfish have created something for the ages. Too bad this beer is a limited edition because given the chance, I would drink the hell out of this wonderful concoction day after day. I just wish I could make sweet love to it, especially since it is a combination of TWO breweries.......get it. Definitely tastes more like a Dogfish than a Sierra, although it is technically made by Sierra and comes in their type of bottle. Score = 4.65

Fermentation: As you all know since you have read my bio, I’m not a fan of stouts or dark beers, but this is a sexy beer. In fact, this beer is so sexy, it’s like Aunt Jamima served me this beer in a bikini, all while pouring maple syrup all over my pancakes. On a serious note, this beer was definitely worth the wait and creativity that Dogfish and Sierra put into it. The beer truly gets better after every sip. I would highly recommend this beer to anyone that can currently find it, if not you’ll have to wait until next year. Score = 4.5

Overall = 4.58

  2. Total Wine had it for about a day.....Dos found out that boca had it and i ran down immediately. Both Boca and Boynton only had it on the shelf for about 1 full business day.
