Jan 4, 2003 Excellent. Pours reddish brown with a lasting creamy head (from a pint bottle). Hoppy, sweet caramel-raisin bread aroma. Very smooth mouthfeel. Well-balanced chocolate, raisins, malt, some woodiness. Finished with a slightly bitter, vanilla note. Extremely drinkable.

Sep 26, 2002 Candied fruit aroma. Garnet, huge toffee head. Treacle, plums, raisins, cherries, almonds. Complex, woody, bitter, dry. Wonderful texture. A real treat! Seems like a Barley Wine.

Sep 19, 2002 Dark brown, port-like look with quite a large, smooth, lasting head. Nose of grapes, caramel malt, slight yeastiness. Flavor’s a knockout: wine and milk chocolate, toffee, dates, all of my favorite things, perhaps just a little too sweet until the end, when the finish becomes quite long and hoppy. Excellent product from Sammy that I should’ve had long ago.
