Sweet malt, caramel, raisin, grape and plum on the nose. Taste is caramel, toffee, lots of raisin and plum. Mild bitter. A bit dry. Dark and tasty with a great mouthfeel and a good look.

Feb 22, 2008 Sampled from 750mL from dpjuart. Subtle warm malty aroma, caramel and Tootsie Roll. Macerated raisins, plum, light toffee. Light vaporous notes, alcohol, chocolate. Subtle yet full of different aromas, very nice. Rich. Murky brown with thin off-white head. Medium-heavy watery body with medium-light carbonation, mild warming. Starts with raisin, chocolate, and toffee. Warming with medium alcoholic vapour. Warming with great malty flavor, light bitter hoppiness. Subtle overall, but there are some complex undercurrents going on. Finishes with mild bitterness and rich malt. Delicious.

Feb 17, 2008 Bottle@Home. Raisin, grapes and madeira aroma. Ruby color, beige tiny head, few lace. Sweet, light bitter, raisin, figues. Alcoholic like a liquor. Not bad, nice flavors, bit out of balance and a bit like it was still too young.

Feb 10, 2008 This is alot like Raison D’Etre by Dogfish Head. Must be the raisins. The raisins give it a very dank, Belgian flavor. This doesn’t show so well in Lost and Found, but does really shine in this beer. Pours a dark brown with a nice tan head. Flavor is raisins, figs, cherries and chocolate. Very yummy beer!

Feb 9, 2008 A nice dark beer with minimal head. Hints of chocolate and dates in both smell and taste. A bit sweet, but very enjoyable.
