Mar 3, 2008 Pours a dark hazy brown color with thin head. Aroma is very fruity with noses of dark fruit, apple and rich caramel. Taste is apple and dark fruit up front and a little bit of red grape in the finish. This ale is full bodied with mild carbonation and a chewy finish. Very complex and pretty enjoyable, although it’s not one I’d drink regularly.

Feb 14, 2008 12 ounce bottle. Nearly opaque dark drown was a slight orange tinge. Nice head. Creamy beer -- softly carbonated -- with a rich flavor. Sure, there’s some malty dark fruit/raisin sweetness, but it definitely has a hop bite to it, and buttery yeast as well. As it warms, I detect some citrus. There’s really a lot going on.

Feb 3, 2008 Updated: Jun 13, 2008Bottle (500ml). Poured opaque with ruby highlights and a tanned head which was mostly lasting. Aroma was of sweet blackberries and cranberries with some dark malts and molasses (light). Flavor was a blend of toffee and coffee with dark malts, dark chocolate, a subtle fruitiness; blackberries, raisins, plums and a great lingering bitterness. Full bodied with soft carbonation, chewy texture, syrupy mouthfeel and a long finish.
