Bottle, compliments of Lewis at Rabun Gap family reunion. Poured a beautiful mahagony with thin khaki more like crema than head. Toasty malts and semi-sweet Like 2% dark-chocolate milk. Good times.

Dec 1, 2009 Pours dark brown with a fluffy off white head. Aroma is light chocolate and nuttiness. The flavor is sweet, chocolatey, and finishes dry with a bit of smokiness. Drinks like a porter. Overall, a solid beer for a good price.

Nov 29, 2009 This beer has a thick, syrupy body and a caramel taste that is mixed with a dark-fruit flavoring. Long-lingering aftertaste.

Nov 28, 2009 This is a pretty good beer, one of the darker beers I’ve had (I’m a n00b :P )
I like the subtle hints of chocolate.

Nov 23, 2009 Pours deep brown, nice thick head with good retention. Slightly fruity malty aroma. Light fruity flavor with strong malt hues and little bitterness. Strong mouthfeel that is exceptionally smooth with low carbonation.

Nov 21, 2009 22 oz bottle - Roasted malt, sweet nose. Lots of bittersweet chocolate on the palate, but immensely satisfying. Super clean and light bodied, but it only serves to accentuate the great malts. Dry and long finish that begs for another sip. "highly quaffable" indeed.

Nov 21, 2009 Nice dark caramel appearance. Head is very very thin, almost none. Lacing is minimal. Good aroma. Surprising malt flavor at first. Palate hits with a nice sweet tone late. Good tasting beer. I recommend this beer for someone looking for a nice dark ale that is not as strong as an Imperial stout. This is a good session beer.

Nov 17, 2009 Thanks to the Tampa Crew for the share. Pours brown-amber with an off-white head. Nose is malt, fruit, sweet banana, and an almost raisiny quality. Mild barleywine flavor. Flavor is lots of sweetness, malt, raisin, light chocolate, caramel, and goodness. Medium bodied and sweet. Nice, enjoyable offering from New Belgium.
