Jun 8, 2009 Blast from the past here. Dark amber pour with light white head. Very sweet smelling, fruits and malt with very little hop action. Same thing in the flavor, very much a sweeter moderate abv beer. Not really my thing then and definitely not now.

Nov 26, 2007 Had this beer on 1/12/2000. Aroma is a rich sweet malt scent. Color is a rich bright amber, carbonation is light with good head. Taste is full and roasted. Starting with a full body it goes down smooth and rich. Finish is a deep roasted flavor backed with a strong hop bitterness. Overall it seems to be a good winter brew.

Dec 28, 2005 Pours a nice dark reddish amber color. Aromas of HOPS, and some other hints, maybe fruit, maybe caramel. Flavor is a bittersweet, malty, and hoppy with a nice dry finish.

Apr 11, 2005 Pours the color of mud. Heavy malt and caramel aroma. Rich malt in the taste with a bit of sweetness and almost a pinch of salt. Simple, but kinda tasty!

Mar 10, 2005 An interesting brew that i found the other day but hasn’t been around for a while. Pours a dark copper red, very clear, with a white head. Aroma is very strong and sweet, just like a well aged barleywine, big caramel malts, brown sugar. Taste was a big letdown though, very thin body with much less sweetness. There was a bit of oxidation in the finish and some faint spicing. I think this brew is a bit past its prime.

Sep 28, 2003 2001 bottling. Beautiful mahogany colored beer that pours with a respectable beige head. The head fades quickly and leaves a slight lace on the glass. The aroma of this beer is superb. Caramel and a hint of spiciness, yet very refreshing and crisp. The aroma makes you feel a need to drink this beer. The first sip is packed with roasted nut and malt flavors. It has a very full mouthfeel that wraps your tongue in sweetness. Then, when you decide to finally swallow, the hops express a touch of bitterness and clean the palate. A hint of nutty sweetness slips in on the aftertaste, but it is very subtle. Subsequent sips present the same sweetness, with the hops being a little more noticable.
