May 31, 2009 Couresy JMFG. Black. Tan head. Well done raspberry beer. Complimentary instead of the focus. Also a bit of spicy, black pepper like element to the taste. Well roasted. Solid.

Feb 18, 2008 On tap at the Federal in Durham, NC. Very dark brown with a tan head. Chocolatey aroma with a strong dose of raspberry preserves. Some roasted malts on top of a ton of raspberry brownie flavor. Alcohol is very well hidden. Surprisingly easy to drink.

Apr 22, 2009 Bottle from ROBORB. Thanks! Pours dark and almost black with a creamy short lived light tan head. Smell is chocolate, tobacco, graham crackers and raspberries. Nice looking beer and unique smell. Taste is dry, and tart with a bit of roasty char, and dark fruity raspberry. More like an ashy stout with dry fruit flavor than a belgian ale, I thought, but I definitely prefer it that way. Really unique flavor and a light tobacco and ashy bitterness to it as well. Medium to full body and a smooth mouthfeel overall. Really enjoyable stuff!

Mar 12, 2008 On tap at Tyler’s. Didn’t think I’d like this but ordered quickly so as not to have to wait for the waitress to come back. However, I was surprised. This beer won me over because it wasn’t too sweet. Nice flavors of bitter chocolate and the nice bitter flavor of raspberries. Toasty and creamy and bitter more than fruity and sweet. Hid the alcohol very well. Wouldn’t drink tons of it, but would try now and again. Try it if you can.

Mar 6, 2008 Draught. Black body, brown head, some lacing. Aroma is raspberry, and not much else, but I can detect some roasted malt and coffee. Flavor is similar, but there is no yeastiness that I would suspect, and the raspberry is subdued in the flavor. Still, this is a very tasty beer, and I would drink it again. NOTE TO BREWER: ADD BLACKBERRIES, and you are my friend for LIFE!!!!

Apr 26, 2009 Black, with no head. Nice whiff of raspberry and coffee and some red wine notes. Flavor is some raspberry mixed with coffee, plus some smokey note and some chocolate, as well. Like a good stout with a just a touch of fruit. Sampled at Springslicker’s Fish Fry.

May 3, 2009 Bomber at the brewery, #898 of 1750. Black with a thin brown head. A Belgian ale? Really? Sounds like an identity crisis. This beer smells like a raspberry stout with some Belgian yeast notes. Tastes like it too, chocolaty and light, sweet raspberry. Whatever it is, it was clearly the best beer at Big Boss during my visit.
