Aug 5, 2009 2006 bottle bought from a liquor store in early 2009. Aroma is molasses, oak, and smoke. Flavor is extremely sweet with a touch of bitterness, but not hop bitterness. Hardly any carbonation and absolutely no head. Alright, but didn’t blow me away.

Aug 3, 2009 Bottle, thanks to one of the few from Natifest ’09. Pours a rich, hazy brown color with a very small head. Aroma is prunes and sweet malts. Notes of other dark fruit, apricots, molasses, port wine, and brown sugar come out. On the palate, a nice alcohol burn comes out. The flavor brings out the port flavor and also brings out a slight apple or pear flavor. Very interesting beer. Something I could not drink everyday, but stilll very, very good.

Jul 24, 2009 Pours hazy brown with no head. Complex aroma of honeysuckle, berry, plum, dark fruit, alcohol, molasses, apple, and vanilla. Feels thin but the flavor is very bold, mostly molasses and ripe fruits with alcohol. Very smooth beer, finishes with a slight bitter toasted malt.
