Second beer I have had this session with an "old sneakers and socks" aroma. Rich and deep amber with a quickly diminishing head. Flavor is a bit tobacco-tinged int he fore followed by ample malts, but nothing pulls anything together. Lou18 (1353), West Paterson, New Jersey, USA

Poured amber with huge fluffy and foamy head, could be the person who poured? Nose was malts, some wood and earth notes. Taste was nowhere as good as the nose. Skip this.

Aroma of malt, cabernet, cherries, some brown sugar. The flavor is roasty malty, with some fruit, hops, brown sugar, and dark chocolate at the finish.

The aroma of malts and caramel is better than the flavor to me which consists of a smooth mix of ingredients which doesn’t go over the top. It doesn’t seem to have an aftertaste of any magnitude. The roasted sweetness laden in this beer is slight. It needs amplification. jcwattsrugger (5581), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

Aroma is hoppy followed by malt. Taste is slightly bitter, hops, dark deep roasted malt. weeare138 (936), Collegeville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 16, 2005 Appears a dark red amber with a creamy 1 finger ivory head that lasts. Heavy streaks of lace are painted on the inside of the glass.
Smell is grainy malts with caramel and crystal malt, along with a light amount of hops.
Taste about the same as the aroma descriptions with a mildly sweet taste.
Mouthfeel is gritty and full bodied with a semi sweetness balancing out a mild bitterness.
