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!

22oz bottle: Very dark ruby red color, crystal clear, with a large light tan head. Aroma has roasted caramel, notes of dates, figs, red grapes, touch of oak. Flavor is very malty, notes of dates, caramel, vanilla, with fair amount of citrusy hops in the flavor. FInish is balanced but mildly sweet.

Pours a very dark amber with a large light tan head and nice lacing. Stunning. Quite hoppy with a decent amount of bitter malts to boot. The finish was pretty dry and bitter (just like me)!!!!

22 oz bottle. Poured a lovely dark brown with burgundy highlights & a thick brown head. The head gradually recedes to a foam that coats the glass for the entire beer. Nose is dark fruit & earthy funk. Flavor was fig, raisin, plum as well as some caramel. Some minor hop presence as well.

16th May 2008. Smooth chocolatey start with a faint molasses tone. This leads quickly to fruity hops that are not bitter. A little like a barleywine but this is something different.

Bottled. Pours dark brown with a red glow and a huge, frothy, beige head. Fair lacing. Nose of malt, caramel and light hops. Sweet flavour with malt, dark fruit and molasses. Medium bodied. Slightly bitter finish. A nice brew.

Bottle. Darker brown pour than I expected, even after reading the description. Dry hopping is outwardly apparent, aroma is large but rather simple and malty. Flavor is decent - like a dark DIPA with less hops. A nice ASA with a good mouthfeel. Avery has better, but I enjoyed it.
