Sep 17, 2009 Pours brown with a dense, light brown head. Aroma is thick with caramel, toffee, and citrusy hops. Also a faint hint of chocolatey roastedness. The flavor is heavy of caramel and toffee with various fruits: sweet, dark, citrusy, you name it. It ends bitter, but not as much as you would think. Surprisingly medium bodied as well. Really nice beer that seems to stradle a few different styles, taking the best of all of them.

Aug 28, 2009 A deep ruby brown ale with a thin moka head. In aroma, nice rosewater and nutty malt, light c-hops. In mouth, an intense oily hoppy ale, warming alcohol, flavours are blending nicely, grapefruit notes, rich and onctuous. Wow! On tap at brewpub, August 16 2009.

Jul 27, 2009 On tap at the brewpub on 6/29/09. Pours a nice dark amber with little head. Great balance of sweet and bitter aromas which carries through to the flavor. Ultimately, the bitterness takes over with finishes with a touch of chocolate, but a well made beer that is very flavorful.

Jul 25, 2009 From tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown to black with a small tan head. Aroma is rosted malt, chocolate and light vanilla note. Sweet roasted malt and chocolate flavoured. Sweet and acidic at once. Solid bitterness breaking the dense malt flavours into a lingering mix of hops and chocolate into the far finish.
