Rounded aroma of mature fruit with yeast and malt undertones on the nose, and similar on the palate with more eveident sweetness.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Sep 1, 2009 A nice reddish brown colour similar to the label. Nice taste but nothing special Hbuck72 (124), Chickasha, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 29, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a strong smell of grains and sour alcohol. Not quite as full bodied as I had expected, and the sour/ alcohol taste is off putting. randolphjj (104), Raymore, Missouri, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 27, 2009 A malt, caramel bomb without much else going on here. My guess is it could keep you alive during a fast, but I wouldn’t reach out for it. smcolw (375), Wayland, Massachusetts, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Aug 16, 2009 Deep dark brown color where a little light shines through (appears clear). Chunky and rocky head; leaves significant
Strong brown sugar/molasses aroma. After the head settles a little, there’s a metallic smell.
Nice blend of sweet (malt sugar) and bitter (hop). Surprisingly thin for this style of beer. Bitter finish with that pesky metal taste showing up in the aftertaste.
