hopscotch (4433), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Mar 14, 2007 Draft... Hazy chestnut body with a mid-sized, frothy, white head. The nose is of dark fruit and caramel with mild, spicy phenols and gentle, yeasty notes. The flavor matches the nose, but supplements it with aspects of fuzzy fruit and acidity. Medium to full-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Gently sweet, fruity finish.
soicanbreathe (8), Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA does not count Jun 29, 2008 A very balanced sweetness, and great color, this beer was enjoyable. definate carmel malts, and a decent aroma Oakes (6819), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Jun 14, 2008 Golden-brown colour. Very bubblegummy with some acetaldehyde. Sweet, spicy taste with some clove, and lots of sticky toffeeish malts. It retains some semblance of balance but still I feel it’s fermented too high, lending it those unpleasant aromatics. daknole (644), Plantation, Florida, USA Jun 11, 2008 I had this earlier this year and I must say this was a good beer. Malty and sweet with good carbonation. I really liked this reddish brown beer. Nice job. unclemattie (1556), Georgia, USA Apr 2, 2008 2002 Great American Beer Festival Gold Medal Winner. Sampler. Deep mahogany, thin head. ( Like a coca-cola.) Sweet aroma. Raisins, bubble-gum, plums and sweet pear juice. Flavor is sweet candi, caramel, toffee, and lots of dried fig. Medium bodied, dry mouthfeel despite the sweet flavor. Very enjoyable. Very comparable to Ommegang or any trappist dubbel. killedge (24), Miami, Florida, USA Mar 24, 2008 on draft..medium brown color... very little head... nutty aroma with hint of caramel...taste of raisins, caramel and almonds...fruity finish
