Oakes (6784), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Jun 13, 2008 Hazy amber. Rich malty nose with alcohol, light peach, and some phenols. Soft caramel, with an earthy character. Has a gentle fruitiness and finishes with an alcoholic splash that melds with the caramel. douglas88 (610), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA May 31, 2008 2005 handbottle thanks to Drnk_McDermott. Pours a cloudy copper with a medium white head and a good bit of sludge in the bottom. The aroma is a malty and fruity mix, some caramel and toffee also. The taste has really held up well; a nice smooth malt body full of dry fruit and metallic aspects. Quite nice, I’d like to have it fresh to compare. footbalm (1205), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA May 31, 2008 Bottle shared from Doug. we were both kinda’ wondering what in the dickens this style was going to be. We were sure maybe an ASA or BW. Makes sense as there were some difined fruit and toffee notes. I was thinking a watered done rootbeer or coke as an undertone. Thanks Doug. hopscotch (4379), Vero Beach, Florida, USA May 25, 2008 Bottle... MBSBF’08 ... Murky amber ale. Barley wine-like aroma... notes of white pepper, caramel and brown sugar. Full-bodied and chewy with modest carbonation. Caramel-praline hybrid sweetness in both the flavor and finish. Thanks go out to Beershine for sharing the bottle!
