Commercial Description:
For 14 wonderful years, we have been creating libations for ourselves in the hope that some others out there would share our eccentric palates and support us. Many thanks to all of you who do! Here is yet another quirky brew: a very dark and different, dry-hopped ale. Style? hard to say, you decide. Just expect massive molasses maltiness, limitless fruits on the nose and an imposing floral & zesty dry-hop finish. Peace to all and follow your dreams!

Bottle, 22oz. A dark brown beer with a reddish hue. Sweetish, roasted aroma with dried fruits and beef stock as well. Quite sweet on the palate, with beef stock, hops and pine, finishing with a lasting flavor that has a coffee-bitter twist. Maybe a bit thin body. I love the flavor combo this beer shows, and it went very well with figs and vanilla ice cream. (071228)

(Bottle) Pours a dark reddish brown colour with a creamy off white head. The aroma is a strange mix of grapefruit/herbal/resin like hops, spices like white pepper and cinnamon, fruity with canned pineapples and dried bananas, dark fruits like plums and raisins, some tart berries and malty tones of caramel, chocolate and nuts. Hints of celery, nettles and cucumber. The flavour is spicy, fruity, hoppy and malty. Chocolaty, caramelly some grapefruit and oranges, bananas and cinnamon. The mouthfeel is smooth, creamy, soft and a bit numbing from the hops. Medium sweet and light to medium bitter. Medium to full bodied. Very malty with a little bit of everything, strange.

22 oz bottle. Blood red body with a medium beige head. Aroma is a bit spicy, sweet malty and hops. Flavor is sweet malt, quite hoppy and fruity. The alcohol is not to pushing and the beer is balanced same time as uncommon.

Dark mahogany with a red hue and a huge, nice and creamy head. The aroma has sweetness, malt, caramel, fruit and hops. The flavour is sweetish but with a nice hoppyness and a surprisingly nice bitterness. It has notes of malt, fruit, grapefruit, hops and the finish is dry. IMO a tiny bit out of balance, but it is a very nice beer! Thank you so much Tom/After4ever!!

22oz bomber-A dark brown body with a nice tight tan head which emits an aroma of hops, sweetness, malt, and a little chocolate. Taste of this full bodied brew comes across with malt, slight alcohol, sweetness, chocolate, and malt on the back end. A nice tasting brew but not getting the hops on the back end like everyone else so I don’t know if it is the age of the bottle or my taste buds.

Bottle. Pours a deep dark brown body with thin head. aroma is choclate, malt, soy sauce, lite hops. Flavor is bitter, lightly hopped, sweet malt and chocolate. Thick mouthfeel. I wish I could have drank this one fresh to experience some of the hoppiness people were talking about.
