Aug 7, 2008 Lakewood, Oh. - Rozi’s Fine Wines - 750 ml bottle. Dark Ruby red to dark brown pour with an ever present mocha colored pour. Delectably sweet aroma with hints of toffee, chocolate and some dates. Chewy flavor with chocolate, toffee, horehound candy, root beer and some baked brown bread. Back end of raisins, figs and dates - a proverbial flavor fest. Thick. sticky mouthfeel - sticks to your ribs. Overall an excellent entry from AleSmith.

Aug 6, 2008 From cask at the brewery. Pours clear and deep golden amber with a light tan head. Dense burbon malty and alcohol aroma, subdued fruity note. Dense caramel flavour and fruity. Light metallic note and slight yeasty touch. Lingering fruity and hoppy flavour with a nicely balanced yet dense caramely flavour. Sweet and fruity finish.

Jul 31, 2008 This beer was all sweet malt with a huge heavy, sticky body. Lots of candied dark fruits along with the sweet malt and boozyness to make this beer extremely rich and thick. Very nice, but the boozyness is a bit much even though it is only %10.

Jul 28, 2008 Bottle. Dark ruby brown in color with a small head. Aroma is strong malt, fruit, and alcohol. Flavor is very sweet and malty. A nice complex relationship of dried fruit and sweet malt. Full bodied and hard hitting. A beer that I will definitely have to revisit in order to fully appreciate.

Jul 27, 2008 Bottle. This is quite impressive. Burgundy with a nice head and good lacing. Aroma of dark malt. Flavor is mostly sweet, smooth with a mild aftertaste. Reminds me of Robert the Bruce with a lot more aroma and flavor. Very good.

Jul 26, 2008 Updated: Jul 27, 2008Tried thanks to Jason! Pours a deep deep ruby red, light brown soft head looks good in the glass. The nose is all chocolate with a tinge of alcohol and plums. Chocolate and dark fruit flavours dominate with alcohol warmth following. Not what i’d call exactly to style but never the less a beautiful beer!
