Viscous with some prickle in the mouth, showing flavors of tootsie roll, cream and chocolate. Sweet lingering finish, with alcohol showing at the end..also a faint note of cherries shows up throughout to give this beer a enticing mystery....wonderful brew TomDecapolis (3176), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA

I stopped rating here but came back just to tell my wonderful experience with this one. I bought it because I’ve never had an ice beer that was supposed to be good; I was expecting the worst. The malty flavor is rich and inviting. I could not put this one down. Very friendly for a 9%, it must have been aged thoroughly to be so smooth. I’m going back for many more of these. vulcanmeister (102), La Grande, Oregon, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jun 30, 2008 This beer is almost too good to believe! I’ll admit I’m still a novice, but for my money, this is one superb beer. It starts with a dark ruby pour with a medium head with a medium light tan head that fairly quickly fades and a brisk effervescence. The aroma almost knocked me over...the brown sugar and caramel aroma was incredibly sweet. The mouthfeel was rich, creamy, with just the perfect fullness and body. The sweetness was again evident in the taste along with a barrage of malt, sugar, various fruits,and the glowing warmth of the generous alcohol content. The melody lingered on long with a train of brown sugar, malt, fruit, and especially raisins. Prosit! SudsMcDuff (1693), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jul 31, 2006 Appearance is pretty average but that’s all that is average about this beer. Very dark brown with a bit of a reddish hue... medium frothy tan head that dissipated extremely quickly with no lacing. Beautiful aroma of sweet cherries and malts. Flavor is a fairly simple blend of malts and sweets... mostly cherries and some caramel. Not overly complex but still delicious. No detection of the high alcohol content. Excellent. nearbeer (1834), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

Chocolate, raisins and molasses with a whiff of alcohol in the delicious nose. Flavor has all the same characteristics, plus some woody notes, toffee, corn and a slight dry-earth spiciness. Smooth medium-heavy body has some slight tingle on the end. Swalden28 (1510), McKinney, Texas, USA
