Shared with Pyrozoid @ L’autre Oeil

App.: Dark brown/ruby highlights, thin frothy off-white head

Aromas: Candy sugar, red wine vinegar, plums, brown sugar

Palate: Medium/full body, lightly acid, nice mariage between bitter and sweet

Flavors: Long lasting flavors, plums, grapes and brown sugar

Notes: Surprisingly little or no alcohol notes for a 10% brew.... Fantastic. Reminds me of a flemish sour on steroids.

Dark, redish brown with a small off-white head. Malty and sour tones. Hoppy and malty taste. Full body with a sweet & sour finish.

Brown with tiny off white head. Sweet flavor with prunes and raisins. Very sweet malty flavor with notes of yeast, prunes, raisins and caramel. Far to sweet for my taste. Saving the rest for aging....

Nice look to it... brown and has off-white head... lighter than would be expected for a brown beer. Dark fruit and yeast aroma. Taste is relatively free from alcohol and quite smooth. Sweet taste of dark fruits and a lot of malts to back it up.

Amber beer with a virtually no head. Alcohol and liquorish aroma. Sweet, fruity and surprisingly complex. The alcohol is obvious but doesn’t seem to punch at a 10% level.
