Jul 20, 2009 Bottle. Poured a rich dark brown with a light tan foamy head which diminished quickly but stayed slightly throughout. The aroma was that of roasted molasses and chococolate malts. The mouthfeel was creamy and smooth with a mild carbonation. It tasted sweet and slightly bitter and finisheed nicely with the flavor of the chocolate malts lingering slighty. Overall a great brew.

Jul 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours red-brown with a cramy white head. Smells raisin and chocolate. Creamy taste of vanilla, dark chocolate and coffee. Chocolate in aftertaste. Small fruitiness. This was almost a little bit too enjoyable...

Pours brown with a dense long lasting tan head.
Aroma is lots of light roasted malt, wheat, caramel, dark fruits, nuts, alcohol and weak notes of liquorice.
Flavour is malty, with notes of caramel, wheat, dark fruits, nuts and alcohol.
An intense and very complex beer. Splendid!

does not count  Jul 16, 2009 Pours dark brown. Complex and interesting taste, but palate ends too sweet. Ends up tasting more like an extreme nut brown.

Jul 16, 2009 Updated: Oct 8, 2009Pours a dark chocolate brown with a small tan head that doesn’t last very long. Aroma is sweet, with a lot of roasted malt, chocolate, and, dark fruit. The flavor is light and less sweet compared to the aroma, but just as complex and well balanced. Has a light but creamy palate, with a subtle sweetness and a dry finish. Wonderful brew.
