| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Mar 23, 2009 Bottle… Pre-C&P’sLYFO Throwdown… Dark, hazy, ruby ale with a small, creamy, khaki head that is gone in a flash. Vinous, fruity aroma presents medium sherry, milk chocolate, blackberries, caramel and black cherries. Medium-bodied and a little oily with soft carbonation. Sweet caramel and chocolate with a hint of tawny port. Lengthy sweet finish. Kudos to DragonStout for sharing this bottle with the crew at redlight redlight! miketd (685), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 21, 2009 Thanks to DragonStout for sharing. Pours brown with a medium head. Has an odd aroma that I can’t place. Flavor is roast malt, caramel and very sweet. Medium bodied. GodOfThunder (884), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 19, 2009 Thanks, DragonStout and BeerVirgin! Pours a thick brown color. Aroma of sweet raisins, vanilla and other dark fruits. Flavor is very sweet, a little cloying, raisins with no roast at all. It could use a little roast to balance things.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Mar 13, 2009 Courtesy DragonStout. Pours a clear, dark chestnut brown with a small, foamy, dark khaki colored head. Minimal, spotty lacing marks the glass. The nose is overpoweringly sweet, notes of brown sugar, caramel, and week old banana dominating. Hints of cocoa show in the background. Flavors too are excessively saccharine, showing almost like a Belgian strong ale at times, with a big, sweet raisin component to go along with the caramelized brown sugar and overly ripe banana. Medium-full, syrupy, and sticky on the palate. This one is sugar overload for me. BeerVirgin72 (814), Pataskala, Ohio, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 13, 2009 Bottle shared by dragonstout. Aroma on this thing was WAY strong. Very sweet and fruity. Plums and raisins. Flavor up front was sweet, sugary, and malty, then finished a bit drier. I didnt like it at first, to be honest, as the flavors seemed to be all over the place, but as it warmed, I liked it better. Hints of vanilla and caramel also.
