Mar 31, 2005 Draft at San Diego Brewing Co. Nice brown color with a hint of vanilla in the aroma that comes out more definite in the flavor. Great finish.

Mar 14, 2005 On tap. Nice looking deep brown with minimal head. Aroma is like a malty barley wine with vanilla. Taste is all over the place. It starts sticky malty vanilly, and ends sour fruit with some bitter hops. Crazy stuff, and not bad.

Mar 11, 2005 Way to much vanilla for me, it dominates this ber. Some clotted cream and caramel notes with a bit of grassy hay.Thin uncomplex beer little depth.

Feb 26, 2005 This is a really good. Nice aroma, reminescent of cream soda, but beer. Beautiful honey red/brown color; modest head. The flavor is great... tastes of honey and vanilla, and I there must be something in the Anderson Valley water or air that gives it a a hint of the forests. Beautifully smooth and balanced. It occupies the same space as a medium sherry. Supple mouth feel with lingering flavor that lasts pleasantly on the tongue. It does lend itself to the the idea of the holidays and the type of meals one serves - Great with a honey glazed ham or roasted turkey, plum pudding - or just after dinner. I don’t want to overhype this one but this is a good one.

Feb 25, 2005 Updated: Aug 20, 2007I have been pretty pleased with what I have had from this brewer so far so I jumped at the chance to try this one. 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.
