Sep 25, 2008 Pours a hazy orange with small tan head. Pick up some sweetness and alcohol in the nose. Flavor is unusual. Cocoa, vegetal, malty, sweet, bitter. This was a pretty fresh bottle, so i’d be interested in trying some vintage stuff.

Sep 19, 2008 The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also. Very complex aroma. Starts very strong and intense - like a barleywine. A bit roasty-smoky, becomes milder in the end. Very good beer!

Aug 25, 2008 Pours a dark burgundy with small white head leaving scattered lacing, somewhat clear. Alcohol aroma with some strong hop and dark malt aroma’s along with some spiciness. Much lighter body than I expected creating an appreciated drinkability to it. Strong hoppy bitterness and nice roasty flavors coming through. Very distinct and damn good.

Aug 23, 2008 Pours a deep amber/crimson colour with a small creamy beige that fades quickly. The nose is dominated by toffee notes with toasted bready malts and hints of cocoa. The flavour brings fourth a nice piney hop bitterness atop a rich coffee, toffee and roasty chocolate malt backbone. The finish is long and roasty with delicious coffee and toasty bread flavours with citric hops overlain. The body is medium/full with soft carbonation and a drying finish.

Aug 23, 2008 Bottle from Utobeer. Reddish amber in colour with a slight, off-white head. Malty aroma of powdered chocolate, dried fruit and spice, with a lot of pine hops. Big mouth feel, leaving a coating of chocolate. Spade loads of malt collide head on with grapefruit hops, before a long dry finish with plenty of warming alcohol. Too extreme and disjointed for me.
