Oct 16, 2005 Very dark appearance. Thick, rich maltiness, extremely sweet. Medium-strength fruity hops that unfortunatly fade out too quick into a very boozy finish. I didn’t know the ABV at the time, but I knew it was quite strong.

Oct 13, 2005 BCTC 05. Not sure what location. I was surprised how good this beer was considering I have had a bunch of mediocre beers from ABC. This BW is skewed more towards the malt than the hops. Lots of chewy caramel malt with a big chocolate malt backbone. Moderately sweet upfront but finishes slightly bitter in the end. Very nice- actually reminded me a bit of kuhnhenn’s 4th dimensia, although not as full bodied.

Aug 15, 2005 Draft at Appalachia BC. Small tan head that mostly diminished, fine-small sized bubbles, fair lacing, uncarbonated, transparent, and an orange brown hue. Sweet, fruity, port and alcohol aroma. Flavor was malty, vinuous, fruity and some hops. Medium body.

Jul 29, 2005 Brownish burgundy pour. Big frothy head feels rather impressive. Very toasty nose, almost roasty dark malts, anisey and woody all throughout. Spicey stouty nose. Superb hazelnut and coffee flavors, very dry surprisingly enough, I’d be curious to know which hops they use, they are not very bitter, but procure a reassuring presence. Soft palate, light carbonation, smooth nightcap.

Jul 21, 2005 07.16.05 Tap at BCTC. Very dark brown. Lasting tan head. Aroma is much milk chocolate, some raisin, prune, dark dried fruits. Thick palate, low hoppiness. Gets cloying but still badass. Spicy, sweet tea.
