Jun 23, 2009 smokey nose with a great maltiness that comes out nutty. dark brown red body with a nice grey lasting head. meaty, bloody, nutty, rusty flavors that i like. a floral sweetness is in the finish with a touch of chocolate coming up in this.

Dec 16, 2008 Draft at the brewery. Mostly clear dark tawny brown body with a dark tan head. Nose is sweet dates, nutty raisin bread, and plum. Slick and oily texture, sweet raisin bread flavor is dominant. Little to no real yeast character, making it almost seem like a plum flavored old ale with a strange clove and berry flavor.

Oct 10, 2008 draft- falling rock: pours an impressive opaque, shall we say... brown with a half inch thick orange/tan head. musty and raisin-like nose with sharp chocolate accents. malty flavors showing notes of raisin, chocolate, figs, and grapes. mouthfeel on the watery side and there’s a significant bitterness riding behind it all. the yeast gives it a nice belgian bubblegumness....quite chocolatey also...in a sharp raisinette kind of way...a little boozish at times as Well...i think the watery texture and the losing fight for complexity stanford in the way of being a winner here. that being said, its not a bad try, really.

Oct 5, 2008 On tap @ Bull and Bush poured a cloudy dark brown with a small lasting tan head. Aromas of mollasses, figs, dates, spice, milk chocolate and light vanilla. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of cocoa, figs, dates, light molasses, spice, vanilla and a hint of coffee with a smooth malty bittersweet finish.
