Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this brew pours a chestnut color with a small tan head. The aroma is faint but sweet and malty. The flavor is a complex mix of caramel, nut, burnt sugar and toasted malt. There is a undertone here reminiscent of toasted marshmallow. The finish is rich roasted malt. A lovely beer overall and one I will be keeping an eye out for in the future. atpayne (615), Zionsville, Indiana, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Feb 24, 2005 Amber color with long lasting tan head. The aroma is quite sweet and full of malt presense. Smells like sweet biscits. Very inviting aroma with chocolate undertones. Full creamy sweet flavor and feel. Very much malty and full on the palate. there is a nice chocolate character that comes in fairly late and lingers nicely. The finish is a bit warming and slightly chalky.

The spicy and fruity aromas were there and the citrus finish was great. Dark amber body with off white head that diminished, Great beer will have to get some more. brewbandit (312), Marietta, Georgia, USA
