22 oz bottle -- Poured big and dark, cherry red, with a good, standing head. The aroma is moderate, hinting at cherry cough syrup. This is quite drinkable, despite the power in it, which is somewhat scary. A tad ashy, but otherwise a good delivery of dark fruit, roast malt, and moderate alcohol. (#3430, 4/22/2008)

Jun 30, 2008 Bottle courtesy of polomagnifico...THANKS!!! Burnt orange color with an inch tall off-white head that receded into a small ring. The aroma is subtle candy sweetness. Taste of caramel, toasted marshmallow, and toffee. Not overly thin or thick...a decent brew.

Jun 29, 2008 Aroma was Ok. Caramel malt and a hint of toffee. Pour was a beautiful deep murky amber with a 2 finger tan head. Taste was a a nice subtle mix of caramel, toffee and roasted malt. Not much carbonation and a dark fruity aftertaste.

Jun 12, 2008 Bottle. Foggy copper color with a tan head. Mild cotton candi and malty pit fruit aroma. Medium body with mild carbonation. Very smooth, easy drinking flavors of apple skins and pit fruits with a nicely bitter hop/alcohol tang to finish. Not bad but not too exciting either, like an evening at home with mom and pop.
