This poured a dark red brown color with no head at all. Aroma was sweet sweet maltdark fruits and lots of booze. Flavor was lots of things going on at aonce. Very very sweet and cloying roasted malts, some smoke maybe, alcohol, leather. I cant beleive this stuff is 23%.

On tap at Bo’s still somehow, the only Bo’s beer left. I was told the batch I tried was 23%, WOW! They have a 2 drink minimum on these bad boys. Served in a snifter glass, this one is a dark cherry chocolate color with minimal head. Aroma is a K.O. of alcohol and maltiness. Flavor is super sweet, with dark fruits, toffee, alcohol, brown sugar and bittering hops apparent as well. Palate is thick and syrup-like, and the flavors linger in the mouth well after each sip. Low carbonation. Took me well over an hour to drink this, and though it was pretty good, it isn’t something you could drink too often.

Pauls Tasting. Pours a dark brown murky body with no head. Huge grainy cherry medicinal flavor. Oxidized with a huge alcohol warming. 04 was better than 03 and much better than 02. Thanks for the share Mike!
