| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 15, 2007 12oz bottle pours amber with a short beige head that was rather short lived. Aromas of alcohol, honey, and some caramel with a kiss of molasses. Flavor is caramel, molasses, alcohol, honey, and some grape skins. Full bodied with a sticky sweet palate and some alcohol heat at the finish. Glouglouburp (2810), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Apr 5, 2007 Clear copper body topped by a short-lived beige head. Sweet alcohol on the nose. Taste is whisky-kind-of-malt wrapped in brown sugar with a few drops of vanilla to hold it up together. As the beer warms up, some berries flavours and a pleasant woody (cedar) flavour sneak in. Hop character is non-existent. All that would be fine if it wasn’t for the crushing alcohol presence and cloying sweetness. EKU 2.1 Cajun (144), New Iberia, Louisiana, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2007 Bottle - Dark amber with thick creamy head. Strong aroma of malt, caramel, and alcohol. Flavors of thick sweet malt, molasses, honey, caramel, hint of bitter hops in the finish along with warming alcohol. I really liked the creaminess of it all and haven’t gotten that out of many beers. drpimento (809), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 24, 2007 Mmmm, very nice. Poured with a huge, thick, foamy, light tan head. Very little lace. Great dark copperish amber color. Aroma is very intense malty, caramel, toffee, and yeasty. Flavor is the same. Finish is yeasty bitter at first then fading to above sweet flavors. A hint of the big alcohol, but not bad. Super rich; would only want one or two. Having this one with a bowl of spicy congee and it’s a perfect match. They have it a Bodega downtown La Crosse too.

Not sure how I missed this on up to now.
