Aubrey (2557), Denver, Colorado, USA Jun 26, 2008 Silky and creamy texture. Very rich malts (very grainy with sweet caramel). Pinch of white wine in the background. Big alcohol nips. Flowery-grassy, weedy, meadow-like aromas. Grassy bitterness.

On tap at the Freakin Frog in Las Vegas NV. Pours a hazy brown with little to no head. Aroma of brown sugar, rasins, hops, rye. Flavor is dark fruits, caramel, rye, spices, bread. Very thick and sweet and quite interesting. Not as boozy as I thought it would be with the HUGE ABV that this packs. WesKBob (145), Bethany, Oklahoma, USA Jul 1, 2008 On tap at Freakin Frog in Las Vegas. Grassy aroma and a sweet, malty flavor with hints of caramel and raisins. Smooth, oily mouthfeel with very little carbonation. It drinks almost like syrup--thick and sweet. On the plus side, the massive alcohol doesn’t overpower at first taste. But it is exceedingly strong in the finish, completely overshadowing whatever else may be there. Just couldn’t get into this one. hopdog (4525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 18, 2008 On tap at the Freakin Frog. Poured a medium and cloudy brownish color wth a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus, floral hops, rye, and earthy. Tastes of caramel, rye, floral, and citrus. Light to medium alcohol in the finish.On the sweeter side. egajdzis (2947), Terrapin, Pennsylvania, USA May 25, 2008 [Draft @ Freakin Frog] Poured a hazy lighter brown color with a thin film of off white head, that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus fruits, floral hops, nuts, rye, and light oxidation. Taste of citrus, dark fruits, tobacco, light pine, toasty rye, nuts, and alcohol, with a huge mouthfeel.
