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. [shared with faroeviking @ Plan B, thanks to Plan B for a taste of this!]
Pours a deep nutty red-black with a small creamy beige head - lots of lacing. Aroma is hoppy, lightly roasted with a touch of chocolate. Flavour is round, roasted, dry, chocolate and still light and fresh. A touch vinious, but never alcoholic. This is a wonderful brew!

Bottle: Copper mahogany, nose of light spice, ethanol and cinnamon/allspice. Nice floral malty notes. The finish is smooth, creamy, and a bit brash.

Bottle pours a deep brown with a light tan head. Aroma of dark carmel and some spicy yeat notes. Flavor is rich and lithly toaste malts with some over ripe pitted fruits and slight sour yeast slants. Moderate body, lively carbonation and a fairly srtong sharp bitterness. I was thinking a bitter hoppy dopple-weizen-bock. Interesting.

Dark reddish chestnut-brown body. Large, foamy, light tan head with good retention. Sticky sheets of lacing coat the glass. Aroma shows strong, sweet burnt sugar and molasses malts. Hints of dark fruits appear on a deep inhale. The flavor is very malty and primarily sweet, Dark, burnt white sugar and scorched molasses comprise the bulk of the flavor. Mild spices accompany figs and raisons as complimentary flavors. Moderate citrus and floral hops add a slightly bitter balance. Medium body with a smooth consistency. Sweet fruity finish. Nice, quality brew. A little too sweet for me.
