After parting ways with his fellow apprentices, AP-09 the steel necked dog embarked on this epic journey on his own. The constant ignorance from beer snobs and the lack of genuine appreciation from beer tickers tipped him over the board. Eventually, his vision deteriorated and neck stiffed up so much that he could no longer tell a friend from a foe. He became the Stiff Necked AP-09 who would no longer listen to anyone but himself. The SNAP-09 is a strong, snobbish version of AP-09. A sweet, rich, smooth Wee Heavy with complex nutty, caramel, cookie dough, and toffee malt flavors.
