Poured a murky brown color with a small, light tan head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of light oxidation, roasted malts, nuts, and caramel. Taste was nutty, with caramel, light honey, cardboard, and some more sherryish oxidation. Thanks Josh!

Thanks to Josh for sharing this one. Pours a mostly translucent brownish amber with golden notes and a smaller bubbly/creamy off whtie head. Aroma of caramel, sweet grainy notes, fruity notes and toasty. Flavor of molassess, vanilla, sweet malty grains, caramel and some light nuts.

Thanks to CapFlu for the bottle! Poured clear, healthy deep brown with a well-retained cap of deeper beige head. The aroma was sweet and very enjoyable.. toasty caramel and nutty notes join drier chocolate.. prickly alcohol and herbal tones accent nicely. The flavor had roughly the same components, but picked up a pervasive (but not entirely unpleasant) sourness.. well-caramelized base with lesser doses of nutty malts.. the finish was sour and warm, carrying through caramel. Medium-bodied with ideal carbonation on the palate.. the sourness got in the way, and I wish I drank it a tad sooner.. very good stuff!

Pours dark with a small but smart head. Aroma contains alcohol, roasted barley, and reminds of a barleywine. The taste is a medium mouthfeel plus dunkle chocolate malt with a bit of roasted barley taste. Well offset by toffee malt for drinkability. Overall quite nice.

Amber-brown colour. No real head. Fudgey, chocolatey, demerara aroma. Rich, earthy palate with burnt cherry, alcoholic warmth midway, and a sweet, earthy, brown sugar and fruitcake finish.
