Adam is a recreation of a historic beerstyle, originally made in Dortmunder, Germany. Rich in flavor, Adam is best served as a dessert beer. It is great with chocolate or cigars, or just a warm fire and good company.

Very dark brown beer with a huge, lasting tan head. Rich and complex aroma of licorice, munich malt, dried fruit. As the head falls down, smoke shows up, a touch of rauchbier bacon, with tar and licorice. Flavour is relatively sweet, complex and unusual. All the best notes of a good dark barleywine, with a little smoke character added. It’s bordering on cloying sweet, but it ends on a dry note with lingering tar and licorice. I don’t think I could drink a pint of this, but I could definitely drink it often.

[Bottle] shared by guerde. Pours a deep brown with a moderate tan head. Aroma is caramel, raisins, and dark fruits. Flavor is roasted barley, dark fruits, alcohol, a little bit of smokey, earthy flavors. Very light in the mouth, yet rich and full of flavor.

a well thought out review has been lost due to some kind of glitch in the system. though my interest in rewriting my review is gone my memory of a good brew will linger for some time to come!

Pours cola brown with big tan head. Sweet aroma of brown sugar, caramel, hops and some smokiness. Alcohol is slightly noticible. Toasted malt flavor with lots of sweetness and some hop bitterness. Full body with prickly carbonation and a sticky mouthfeel.

12 oz bottle from batch 72. Poured a dark chocolate cloudy brown with a light brown small but thick looking head. It just looks like its a thick beer.The nose exploded upon opening the bottle,sweet, chocolate, belgian yeast. Some decent carbonation, and interesting complex flavor, with a very bitter finish,and a strong hint of alcohol. Hints of cola, chocolate, with a smokey tinge. This is no doubt hearty.

Bottle. Batch number 70. Pours a rich brown. Very tobacco-like on the nose. Very sweet in flavor. Very rich, chocolate, raisin, and dark dried fruit flavors. Finish is smoky like a cigar. Very different ale but a really really good.
