Dec 24, 2008 2007 bottle thanks to miketd. dark ruby pour with no head. smooth nose of raspberries, chocolate and caramel. quite nice on the palate with a very subtle raspberry flavor that is dominated mostly by the chocolate and caramel. it did feel a little hot but i am not complaining.

Dec 21, 2008 Bottle 2007. Reddish brown pour. Aromas of wood, caramel, port, honey, vanilla and some chocolate raspberries. Flavor is good, but really not what I expected. Initial hit of chocolate, raspberry, caramel, vanilla and thick mouthfeel is offset by too much alcohol. I was unimpressed with the finish to be honest. But I did like the beer.

Dec 7, 2008 This poured a dirty red to brown in color. The nose showed off lots of chocolate dipped raspberries. This is simillar in the medium-bodied palate that had nice richness. While this was an enjoyable beer, I do not quite get all the fuss. It was well-balanced yet fairly simple.

Oct 22, 2008 Thanks to Rustychiles for sharing this, and congrats on #500. Pours a pale-ish amber/red with no head. Bottom of tiny bottle is a dark, viscous syrup. Aroma is of malt, light raspberries, and particularly of chocolate. Taste to match - on the sweet side, but not overly-cloying. Would make a great dessert beer. I was pleasantly surprised that the booze character didn’t overpower the other flavors.

Oct 18, 2008 #500!!!!!!! vintage bottle courtesy of goryshkewych.
Pours a nice murky brownish red color with a lot of black sediment in the bottom of the bottle that I had to avoid pouring into the glass initially. Aroma is very sweet syrupy decadent chocolate, raspberry, and caramel. Flavor is raspberry, chocolate, caramel, vanilla bean, with a syrupy thick mouthfeel. Great after dinner cordial or slow sipping delight.
