Oct 16, 2009 Dark brown/Black pour with very lively pillowy beige head that lasts forever. Aroma is Dark malt, chocolate, hazelnut and yeasty, a bit of vanilla as well. Flavor starts off with vanilla and a bit of booze and melds into a nice chocolate roastiness.
Note: as this warms more flavors come out including a subdued tart sourness and some tobacco

Oct 11, 2009 ~ Purchased this 11.2 oz bottle from New Beer Distributors in Manhattan, NY. Appearance is dark brown with a modest head that just doesn’t want to go away. The smell is intense. Dark fruits, spices, yeasts, hints of chocolate and vanilla - it’s all there! Taste is outstanding. Body is medium and carbonation is on the high side, but that’s a good thing because it gives me the chance to pick out all the wonderful flavors. The 9% ABV is masked quite well, but you still get that warm fuzzy feeling from the alcohol.
I feel I am not worthy to drink such an elegant, complex beer such as this!
World-class! ~

Pours a dark brown colour with a huge head and good carbonation.
Smell is very present, has some good nuts there and got nice malts there too.

Sep 11, 2009 (bottle) pours a pitch black colour with a tall rocky off-white head. aroma of toasted malts, floral hops, with big notes of caramel and a hint of roses. flavour is mostly toasted malts, alcohol and herbal hops, a bit lacking in the drinkablility department. heavy-bodied with light carbonation and a big, roasted-bitter warming finish.
