Nov 30, 2002 Dark amber glow. Robust malt nose, not roasted, but dry oats. Same throughout the taste. More molases and caramel tones. The finish is lightly dry and slightly acidic.

Mar 29, 2005 Poured a clear amber with lots of tiny bubbles. Rich, foamy head. Sweet aroma with a yeast/bread undertone. Flavor is malty with a roasted fruit to it, the finish is smooth. But, there is not as much going on as I anticipated. And my label was slightly different then the one pictured.

Oct 6, 2006 Pours a brown/red with fizzy off-white head. Aroma of sweet nutty malt. Nutty flavors of roasted malt and a little bit of fruit and coffee. Thin, fairly sweet and easy to drink.

Jan 28, 2003 Nice head. Couldn't see the color in my earthenware stein. Earthy malt aroma. Nice malt taste with just a hint of hops at the end.

Sep 12, 2007 Pours dark brown with a impressive tall head. Smells of milk chocolate and faint bacon. Thin, watery texture pushes the roasted notes to the sides of the mouth. Certainly redrinkable, but I was hoping for something with more body and oomph.

Jun 13, 2008 Bottle... Poured deep burgandy with a huge frothy head. Aroma is great, roasted nuts, tea and plums. Palate is smooth, with flavors of roasted malt, caramel and a touch of hops for a mild, refreshing bitterness. Some other chocolate, mild coffee flavors too. Very hearty.

Apr 16, 2006 Brown with clear red shine, big bubbled head stays long, leaves laces; Huge nose, deep, first loads of grapefruit (like the carbonation blows in your face), later notes of soil, dark baked white bread, loads of character; Quite bitter/ acidy body, a bit to the watery thin side; Long but again watery thin finish that has a chewy bitterness and the same aroma as the nose. I find that the character of nose and body isn’t all that coherent.
