Bottle poured into a Chalice produced a good two fingers worth of tam head that just stayed around for the whole beer. The body of this brew was jet black in color
Aromas of Belgian yeasts and roasted grains some grape sourness in there as well. It gets better as it warms up for sure
Flavors are great reminds me more of a Baltic than a strong dark, big roasted mats with some nice sourness in there from the yeast quite delicious really enjoyed it
Good carbonation and good medium to full mouthfeel.
Thanks so much Mike for giving me the opportunity to try this unique beer. A great brew to enjoy the last of summer. Very drinkable, I would drink it again. looking forward to trying more Pisgah

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 5, 2007 Chocolate brown/black colour, tan head. Interesting aroma that is a bit more fruity, shows the belgian yeast for sure. Semi bitter coffee like notes, a bit of burnt, more sweet fruityness to it. Reminds me of why I like baltic porters and how much I like experimentation. Cletus (5059), Connecticut, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 26, 2008 Bottle courtesy of durhambeer. Pours dark brown with a diminishing tan head. Smells of cherries, chocolate, dark fruit, molasses. Tastes dry and roasty with a tarte kick to it. Lots of okay hints and a chewy mouthfeel. This is just a really good beer that stretches the stylistic boundaries and brings them to new places. Excellent! Suttree (2743), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 28, 2007 Black, with a little bit of foam around the edges. Chocolatey and fruity aroma- mostly raisin and prune. Smooth palate, with flavors of plum and raisin, plus some cherry melding nicely with coffee. Definately shouldn’t be served too cold, as we learned - much more winey and chocolatey as it reaches room temperature. Very tasty stuff. Batch 150, best before Feb, 2015. goldtwins (4084), Nesconset, New York, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 10, 2008 Bottle from ucusty. Thanks dude. Dark brown with a bubbly floating layer that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Sweet roast, dark fruit, yeasty esters in the aroma. Super duper carbonated. Flavors of roasted malts, dark/sour fruits, chocolate, then a burst of spicy Belgian yeast that creates an interesting fruit quality. An earthy bitterness follows and some roast, yeast, and chocolate linger. Only a little hot on the palate after I breath everything out. This is one unique and interesting brew.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 7, 2007 poured into tiny tulip. I had this at a bruisin-ales tasting. (thanks Julie, and the owners husband)... very similiar to a baptista, but malty, and darker... a great beer very good drink, and a fun taster.. don’t forget its organic, that means its good for you right?
