11.2oz white bottle, from the Natural Food store on Sawmill Rd., Columbus, Ohio. Dark amber color with a two-finger, bubbly, dark tan head. Nose is very sweet; malty; light caramel; lightly astrengent from the alcohol fumes; lightly dark fruit and perhaps some molassess; pleasant aroma however slightly nondescript. Very strong flavor; extremely malty; slightly spicy almost like cinnamon oil; alcohol astringent with some alcohol warmth through the nose; tiny bit of a bitter hop finish; this beer warms my face. Very thick and very creamy; mildly sticky but not cloying. Great beer; a pleasure to enjoy.

Aug 17, 2008 This quadrupel looks more like a thick stout than an ale because of its rich, dark, motor oil color. The thick creamy taste also give the impression of a stout. This is smooth and delicious, especially on tap in the correct 10.5 oz glass/sifter.

Aug 16, 2008 pours deep ruby color, generous head, some lacing. nose of plum, malt, sweet fruit and alcohol. flavor is sweety, plummy, malty. oh yeah. and alcoholy. palate is oily, medium bodied. overall, although it is pretty fruity, it is also highly alcoholic, so if you are in a real hurry to get drunk, this just might be the beer for you. cheers. and enjoy!

Aug 11, 2008 what a great beer. alc.% should not keep you away well rounded aroma, very well balanced taste, with a tendency to the sweet end. ends a little bitter and with a reduced version of the original flavor. truly a work of art. my score is too low.
