Nov 2, 2009 Bottle from Bruisin’ Ales. Pours deep amber-brown with gigantic creamy beige head. Nutty, malty, sweet, and creamy with some light cinnamon, butterscotch, and earthy notes. Some dark fruits. Not cloying, even if it’s sweet. Very drinkable. I dig.

Nov 1, 2009 Bottle thanks to Glouglouburp!
Murky mahogany, fluffy beige head. Lightly sour, lightly lactic twist on nuts and earthy wood. Very sweet and alcoholic flavor, light pepper accompanies the nut and wood in the dry, overly-carbonated finish. Too sweet and zesty.

Oct 20, 2009 Bottle [330ml] shared with and courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a murky amber-brown with an average size fizzy beige head. Nice aroma of Belgian yeast, lightly roasted caramel malt, chocolate, spices and dark fruit. Flavour is yeasty, malty and fruity along with some chocolate, spices and alcohol. Quite carbonated. Average to medium bodied. Very good and a nice suprise.

Oct 14, 2009 Very dark brown with massive tan head. Aroma of malt, caramel and licorice. Sweetish flavor, with notes of raisins and cinnamon. Interesting, but could be more complex and better balanced.

Oct 7, 2009 Brown colored liquid with a big fluffy taupe head and big blotches of lace. Stewed fruit, alcohol, and a touch of over-ripe banana. The alcohol and banana start to overtake the scent and lead to a rotting sawdust pile, interesting. Light start with a bit of toasted male and wintergreen. A touch of port and oak aged tannins. Woody depths and mild plum. Not a bomb in any sense. A "strong" with fairly mellow and delicate flavors. Nutty in the finish, along with a touch of raisins that have been flambéed in a pan with white wine. The more I taste the deeper and more complex the flavors become. Finish has a roasted malt and dark coffee linger. One of those brews that acts like a siren and draws you in. Not sure if I can resist.
