Mar 16, 2008 Overall a very good complex beer. It pours a dark brown with a miniscule off-white head. Aroma smells of chocolate, molasses, and dark fruit. The head quickly dissolves and there you have all of these flavors in a light, flavorful, porter-like beer. It finishes as it starts, but with a tang of bitterness. I would definitely drink it again, if I found it.

Sep 11, 2006 LCRBM2: Banana and grapes in the almost vinous aroma and flavor. Brown sugar aftertaste. Indeed, not very subtle.

May 4, 2007 Dark ruby in colour, average sized beige head, some light lacing. The aroma is of light alcohol, caramel, light spice, dark fruits, some molasses. The flavour is quite malty, some noticable alcohol, earthy, wheaty, dark fruits. Fizzy mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes lingering, again some alcohol, mild sweetness. Not nearly as over the top as some of the other Avery beers, this one actually has some balance and is drinkable. Not bad.

Sep 10, 2006 [2nd Low Countries RateBeer meeting] Butterscotch, roasted malty sweetish aroma. Clear, brown coloured with a light brown head. Taste is quite sweet, caramel malty, some sugar and fruit. Nice, but too sweet.

Jul 25, 2006 Very dark, reddish brown with a slight tan head. Strong wheaty, but band-aid-like aroma. Theres something unusual in the aroma, but the flavor/taste is decent. There’s cocoa and buttery malts. It is not very rich, yet the alcohol burn/astringency is very evident. Overall, it is interesitng, but I probably wouldn’t buy another bottle.
