Pours a nice dark brown with subtle red tints throughout. One whiff of this brew brings thoughts of fruit, flowers, hops, and several malts. At first taste it is bitter, but it quickly fades into a nice fruity/earthy aftertaste. For some reason this Strong Ale reminds me of a weaker Belgian Dubbel.

Dark amber in color with light carbonation. Aromas of figs, prunes, and faint spice. Med/syrupy body with notes of figs, prunes, dates, slight oxidation, almost cloying sweetness, and a sweet average finish. Too sweet for my tastes at the moment but it should be interesting with some age.
