750ml bottle, 6.7%abv. Aroma is primarily malty and sweet with a good amount of dark brown sugar, has some yeast and fruity attributes though, contributing notes of pomegranate, red grape and faint plum, along with a less distinct doughy, musty hint and a slight flowery, herbal tinge. Deep, hazy, rusty red-brown color with a lasting, foamy off-white head and the lace in uneven sheets. Flavor is interesting and fairly consistent from start to finish, malty, roasty and lightly sweet with a juicy, tangy, fruity aspect lightly permeating, and in the background suggestions of milky chocolate, old wood and a very light bitterness. Mouthfeel is quite creamy and smoothly effervescent, body is medium-full. Mild-mannered but well-built. Thanks to Kinz!

Aug 29, 2008 Pours a dull, deep ruby tending to auburn with a substantial but rather loosely packed off white head. Aromas are dominated by honey and caramel with obvious banana and hinting raisins. Palate seems alot more reserved. Caramel/toffee seem to accompany sweet malt with yeasty banana characters coming through. Finish is rather malty with subtleties of liquered raisins.
