Mar 15, 2009 Bottle shared by Crosling, thanks Nick. Poured a cloudy orange-brown color with a 1/4 inch beige head that faded to a layer and left some spotty lacing. Aroma of soft citrus fruit (orange and tangerine), faint caramel, a light earthy yeastiness, cabernet, and a nice woodiness. Smooth, moderately sweet entry with some fruity undertones (orange peel and tangerine) leading into a woody, lightly chocolaty maltiness with hints of soft berry, tannins, and wood dryness. Moderate carbonation and solid mouthfeel. Overall, a pretty good beer with an interesting flavor profile.

Mar 15, 2009 Pros: Really nice aroma showcasing notes of Cabernet, vanilla, dark fruit. Very nice appearance, with a long lasting head. Nice purity and essence. Excellent mouth feel. Lots of depth.
Cons: Not a single flaw in this beer that I can detect.
A terrific ale from start to finish.

Mar 1, 2009 Sampled on draft at Monk’s Cafe at their Lost Abbey dinner awhile back. The beer poured poured a redish amber color with slight to no carbonation/head to it. Probably due to it being barrel aged. The nose was sweet and complex. I get all kinds of fruit in here, some wine qualities in the nose and in the taste. The taste has some wood notes and definite touch of the high abv along with some malty sweet notes. Another well rounded Lost Abbey brew.

Feb 22, 2009 Bottle, sampled at Woodshop Quad. Pours a cloudy amber-brown with an off-white ring. Sour and sweet aroma, of citrus, plum, malt, and yeast. Taste is crisp and sour, of yeast, citrus, other fruits, and a bit of sweeter malt and sugar. Lingering crispness and nice carbonation. Very drinkable and tasty.
