Jun 7, 2004 Amber body, clear, off-white head. Aroma consists mostly of malty caramel and brown chocolate. Light yeast notes, mild fruits and something creamy also make act of presence. Yeasty chocolate palate. very mild, lightly tart. Light-medium body, medium carbonation. Okay american interpretation on a tough to execute style. Very accessible.

Sep 19, 2003 Tasted at Eric & Wendy's "Go to Hell, Isabel" Party 2003.
Sparkling clear, mohogany ale. Small, fizzy, khaki head. Quickly dissipating.
The nose is beefy with notes of horse blanket and leather, straw or hay. Nothing at all special.
Some brown sugar, caramel and chocolate notes in the flavor... maybe even dates.
Medium-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Good attempt at a difficult and wonderful style, but this example falls way short of my expectations.
