Mar 26, 2009 Dark toffee color, little fabric softener in the aroma, some dried cherry. Some moss, great scotch character when it warmed up.

Mar 8, 2009 A deep reddish brown ale with a thin light moka head and granular floaties. Nice vinous caramel aroma, with light juniper notes, and warming alcohol. In mouth, a sweet caramel malt with light molasses, peaty notes, a bit of licorice. Rich and smooth, a good example of the style. Tasted with Probstk, Jan 11 2009.

Feb 22, 2009 12-oz. Thanks, BeachBum25! Crystal clear dark brown with rubied highlights. Dense, creamy tan head. Laceless. Big peaty caramel nose. Creamy medium body--peat, smoke, earthy tang, wet leaves. Delicious.

Feb 11, 2009 12 fl. oz. bottle shared by Lubiere (merci!), served almost cold in a goblet. JA11/09.
App.: Deep copper, rim of tan, big chunks of yeast.
Aroma: Definite funk, peat smoke, a little caramel, a little tangy fruit, kinda tight.
Palate: Medium-full body, moderate effervescence.
Flav.: Caramel/toffee, some meaty smoke, a touch metallic, a little vinous, fairly fruity; quite sweet with some lingering caramel and peat smoke.
Restrained smoke, a bit like an Abbey Dubbel to me.

Feb 3, 2009 Bottle courtesy Beachbum25. Pours a blackish red with a thin off white head. Dark malt, roasted grain, hints of peat and sweetness in the aroma. Sweet slightly smoky taste with good smooth malt and roasted grain body. Good stuff.

Feb 1, 2009 12 oz bottle-deep ruby red color w/almost no head. Roasted malt aroma. Rich full flavor of roasted malt, caramel, toffee & roasted nuts. Very smooth & easy to drink. Alcohol was very well hidden-had no idea it was this high until I went to rate it. Classic example of this style-long matly mouthfeel. I really enjoyed this one & would love to try it fresh on tap!
