Commercial Description:
An epic brew from Achilles, a red-brown rich and malty masterpiece with just a dash of hoppy bitterness for balance.

A mediocre beer. gold color with sediment, it does look good. Mild yeasty aroma with malt, and flavor has bread, moderate malt, some hops and some sugar, but all of the flavors are quite light.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of fruits, and so is the flavor, leading to a slightly spicy finish. The body is a bit thin.

Savannah, Ga. - Habersham Beverage Warehouse - 750 ml bottle. Pours a slightlly hazy medium orange with a sticky, puffy white head. Sweet aroma with some hints of white grapes, citrus, and a touch of alcohol. Hearty flavor with some nutty accents, a touch of cherries, some root beer, raisins, dates, caramel l and toffee. Mouthfeel is pleasant, good creaminess. Solid Belgian.

Bottle from John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR. Pours a clear copper color with a good yellow/white head. Sweet aromas of candied lighter stone fruits. Medium body with coarse carbonation. The flavor is not all that sweet, seems slightly bitter, and lightly spicy. A very tasty ale.
