Sampled at Empire State Brew fest in Syracuse. Simply amazing. Unequivocally my favorite of the night to this point. Malty nose with some a bit of hops trying to come through but mainly malt. Incredibly well blended together. Great malt aftertaste. Would buy again

22oz bottle courtesy of zinister. Has a good earthly aroma of barley and oats. Sweet malts on the nose also. Amber body with good beige head. Good malted caramel sweet sugar and sone dried fruits. Thick body texture and was smooth in the palate. Enjoable brew.

22 oz bottle poured into a snifter has an orange amber color and a thin layer of tan froth leaving a ring of foam on the glass. aroma has caramel, brown sugar, sticky dark fruit, and hops. flavor is heavily malted, sticky brown sugar, hop bitters, and caramel. hits of dried fruit, sweet but countered by bitterness, and thick with malts. the mouth feel is fairly full and it finishes with dark fruit and a lingering bitter sweetness. alcohol is well hidden here.

Bottle of the 2008. Aroma is a great candied pineapple. Flavor reminds me of a really good fruitcake. Sticky sweet with a nice piney hop backbone that doesn’t overpower, even though it is a very fresh bottle.

’08 Bottle: Murky amber pour with no head. Sweet caramel malt nose with some pine, red apple, brown sugar and other dark fruits to round it out...very nice. Full bodied mouth feel that is slightly sticky and viscous. Creamy toffee, dark fruits and floral hops come through in the taste with some minute notes of amaretto.
