Nov 23, 2009 Sampled at the Noogfest High Five. Pours a light brown with decent tan head. Pretty fair for the style. Good smokey, peatyness. A little soft on the palate.

Oct 31, 2009 Bottle at Paul’s place for Kan’s visit. Pours a clear thin looking caramel brown with a thin white head. Caramel, malt, not much else. Sweet, thin, cardboard. Finishes lightly bitter with a little bit of grain.

Oct 21, 2009 Bottle shared at Moosetoberfest. Poured a thin muddy brown with a small fizzy white head. Aroma of dates, raisin, honey, molassess and lots of isopropyl alcohol. Flavor had some weird celery notes about it blended in with lots of alcohol, honey, molassess and raisin. Not bad but the alcohol was just too hot in the aroma and the flavor.

Oct 2, 2009 This one was rather enjoyable. Malty raisin aroma with hints of clove. Medium bodied dark fruit and malt body that isn’t that thick. Fair amounts of clove towards the finish with definite signs of booze. Good, but not as full as it could be.

Aug 26, 2009 Pours a clear deep dark copper/chestnut brown color with mahogany edged when held to a light source. 2 finger off-beige frothy head that quickly dissolves into a thin ring and cap that last throughout.
Roasty nutty caramel malt aroma with hints of spicy pepper and cloves, hops, bready yeast and chocolate. The roatiness is prominent but not overpowering like a coffee beer. The cloves and caramel malt flavors balance things out nicely.
Smooth caramel malt body with a nice spicy clove presence. Hints of chocolate, bready yeast, banana, nut, toffee, roasty malts and sight hops. Alcohol very well masked making this a complex easy drinking dopplebock. The clove spiciness is very strong slightly overpowering the other flavors
