Oct 18, 2007 Bottle... Clear amber ale with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The aroma is rich and vinous with notes of caramel, toffee, port... everything malty and sweet. A touch of buttery diacetyl to boot. Sweet, malty, slightly vinous flavor. Chocolaty and hardly bittered... just enough. Full-bodied and oily with moderate carbonation.. Sweet-mocha finish.

May 2, 2007 Bottle thanks to ElJefe: Pours a clear bright copper amber with a thin, frothy tan head. Aroma of really earthy, muddy, peaty character without much smoke and some toasted pale malt. Body starts with a fuller caramel malty sweetness with some light fruity complexity and more earthy flavor. NIcely balanced and fairly authentic.

Jul 26, 2007 Bomber. Pours brown with a sparse off white head. Smells of sweet malt and possesses some rosey qualities. Tastes of rich chocolate, some tame dark fruit and some sweet sugar. Mouthfeel is a little watery. Finish is sweet and has some coffee like qualities. Surprisingly balanced and flavorful for its ABV. I would have liked some peatiness in this but otherwise, it was well done.

Mar 29, 2008 Deep brown beer, thin white head. Aroma is lovely. Rich toffeeish caramelly aroma. Quite sweet and rich smelling with lots of kettle character, some toasted malts and even a kiss of smokiness. Flavour is sweet, chewy and well-balanced. Dark caramel, toast and sweet maltiness with a bit of chocolate on the back. Rich creamy palate. Like this a lot more that I probably should. A bit of earthiness on the finish. Definitely a quality brew.

Nov 14, 2007 Bottle from Capone’s. Deep brown pur with 1-finger khaki head. This appears deep ruby through direct light. Smells like cabernet, nuts, some roasty malt, brown sugar. Tastes roasty malty, with cabernet notes, some nuts, and some figgy brown sugary notes. One of the better brews I’ve had from this brewer.
