Perfect mohagany/tawny color, carbonated; light head & lacing. The aroma has some special b, alcohol, caramel & a good mix of other malt complexities. Balanced by the hops. This is what I will look for in an old ale from now on, not that "old peculiar". The flavor mimics the aroma, smooth & easy drinking.

Jul 16, 2008 Draft. A very dark amber beer with a thin cream colored head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel as well as lighter notes of alcohol. The flavor is very sweet with notes of over ripe fruit, leading to a dry woody finish. A quite nice old ale.

Jun 5, 2008 This was a beautiful thick and rich, chewy maltbomb that is quite delicous in the chilly winter months of Portland. A tad bit sweet, but not quite to the point of being cloying, just really rich with tons of fruit and candi sugar qualities. Slightly one-dimensional, but still found it to be quite enjoyable.

Jan 12, 2008 On Tap at Alameda Brewing Co. Portland, OR Pours out a mahogany color topped with a cream head. A nice tast of brown sugar and roast malts. I wish it was a little thicker.

Mar 1, 2006 Dark reddish-brown colour. Sticky with lots of dark fruit (cherry, plum, raisin). A bit sugary/syrupy in the body. Sweet, chewy finish. Overwhelming, one-dimensional sweetness.
