Jan 24, 2009 Updated: Aug 14, 2009Crushed with Jakebra off the tap. Sweet nose. Very thin bodied but the flavor is surprisingly full and good. Very sweet, some chocolate, brown sugar and malts. Some subtle scotchiness, definitely not overpowering, but mellowing and pretty good.

Jan 24, 2009 Had in can, is Oskar Blues dropping there prices or something? Got this for around $1.75 in CT. Pours stylistically brown with a wispy head. Appearance was not unlike a melted milk chocolate bar. Aroma maintains strong nutty and caramelly character. Complemented by a smooth palate, the flavor featured some toasted malt, more caramel, maple syrup, and earthiness. All in all, this brew kept me entertained throughout, managing to counterpoint its sweetness with rich nuttiness that I could appreciate.

Jan 18, 2009 Pours extremely dark brown. Light barely penetrates it. Sweet malt flavor with a touch of raisin thrown in. Aroma is a slight wet cardboard scent but it’s not offensive at all. Overall it’s a nice sipping beer, but I’m not that fond of the style personally.

Jan 18, 2009 Can from Trinity Liquors in Spring Hill, FL.
Aroma is smoke, toffee, and malt. Pours mollasses colored and no head. Flavor is malt, toffee, coffee, smoke, caramel...NICE. Not much aftertaste very smooth. Overall, its very different...quite sweet but a little smoky. Very interesting, like a porter mixed with a barleywine.

Jan 17, 2009 The can is a bit complex, the beer in the glass deep black, smoky aroma. Starts malty dry, reminds me of christmas spices. The finish is a bit weak in the first moment, but then smoky-malty. Nice!

Jan 16, 2009 Pour: 12 oz can to pint glass. Dark russet brown, clear with enough backing light. Nice inch of light tan head, but it’s on the fizzy side. No lacing.
Nose: Peat, a nice smoked meat note, some roast, even a little milk chocolate.
Mouth: Smokey and roasty, sort of like chocolate-covered bacon (yes it does exist). Subtle dark fruit and cold coffee. Mouthfeel is rich and creamy. Flavors are bold but not huge, which helps lend a unique drinkability here. Some astringency and some booziness.

Jan 14, 2009 What a great beer! Very dark brown, almost black, with a thin, quickly dicipating beige head. Buttery, toffee aroma, with a very slight coffee hint. Falvor matches the nose well. A ton of flavor in this beer! The 8 percent ABV is extremely well hidden.

Jan 13, 2009 Can. Pours blood red with a big beige head. Sweet and malty nose. Well balanced flavor of malt, hop and alcohol. So far the best beer in a can I have had. Cant wait to try Ten Fidy.
