Sweet malted barley and faint hops to the nose. Clear dark body with gorgeous thick frothy tan head that leaves clinging lacing the full length of the glass. Flavor is sweet. Malted barley present in every sip, molasses, chocalate, caramel with a very refreshing bitter hops finish. Velvety rich palate in a beer that is distinctively cask conditionned. More expensive but worth every penny.

Wow, I disliked this last year but this is lovely. Big rich tones of different malts mingled in perfect balance with delicate, rounded hops. Caramel sugariness, cocoa, bitter notes, character for miles. This kills some Trappist Dubbels.

Bottle, poured dark red with black highlights, a off-white head appeared and dissapated some, lots of lacing on the glass, fragrances of sweet malt, roasted malt, whiffs of whiskey and brandy alcohol, faint licourice, chocolate and brownies, taste of dark malt, sweet malt and little dark brown sugar, carbonation on the tongue, this is a sweet ale, almost like a dessert drink, a winter warmer, I could feel the alcohol sliding down my throat, very soothing, warming, nice ale.

This is a beer you want to spend a little time with. It has a full malted falvor that leaves a full flavor on the palate.

this is a pretty nice brew. Has a fairly strong chocolaty roasted malt taste. Has a cream texture and was overall pleasing.
