chicagodri (1021), Chicago, Illinois, USA Oct 11, 2008 They weren’t kidding about massive maltiness. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Malt dominates the aroma with some dark fruit, I didn’t sense as much hops, but it is an older bottle. Malty throughout and it was a little creamy as well. Decent brew, almost a little too sweet for me. Ramenen (453), San Salvador, El Salvador Oct 7, 2008 Thanks to Pollo. Pours a dark brown color with creamy head. Medium to heavy bodied. Malty and sweet, fruit of bananas. It is a stomach/heart warmer. Delicious. ghawener (952), San Salvador, El Salvador Oct 4, 2008 Thanks to rsamayoa. Bottle: @ rateberians informal gathering. malty, smokey, earhty and woody, nice balance conplex and well balanced. rcasta (472), El Salvador Oct 4, 2008 Gracias pollo en la casa del gordo es una cerveza ale oscura con un buen sabor a malta. Es mas mi tipo MakeItDrinkIt (66), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 27, 2008 Dark brown in color with a medium light-brown head. Aroma is resinous hops and caramel. Flavor is malty - caramel, light toffee, and a kind of wierd resiny hop combo. A decent beer, but a littly wierd on the palate being a pine-caramel combination. Finish lingers with both of these flavors battling as they subside... uhre (339), Denmark Sep 18, 2008 Black beer with huge dark head. Aroma of hops and a lot of malt. The beer was not fresh so it didn’t have that much hop flavor. A great beer with a complex malt character. fiver29 (703), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Sep 6, 2008 Bottle pours black with a slight amount of light passing through. Has a thin off white head. Aromas are malty with a slight hop aroma. Mouthfeel is is medium with a stinging sensation from the carbonation. Taste is mainly malt upfront with a slight hop presence on the finish. Overall this is not a bad brew. I had the chance to try one fresh about a year ago and it had a lot more hop aroma to it and hop flavor. Its aged somewhat well over the past year. I rate it on the merits of the two I’ve tried. Overall this is a fine brew. It was better fresh. rocbyter (902), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Aug 19, 2008 Strong malt aroma with a moderate amount of hops. Super dark amber or brown with a medium dark tan head. Strong sweet malt beginning with a strong malt and bitter finish. Creamy palate.
