Commercial Description:
Influenced by a Belgian yeast and good old fashion brewer creativity. Ah yes, lay this one down in your cellars for years to come. Enjoy this one alone for its malt and hop complexity. For entertaining suggestions try a sweet pairing of raisins or sugar coated dates. For a meal start with a soft spreadable herb cheese from fresh cows milk on a nice toasted piece of baguette. Then serve Carbonnade of Beef (Belgian national stew) with candied yams and pan fried green beans tossed with butter and sliced almonds.

Im fairly confident that I got a bad bottle. No head and barley a bubble I’ve had this beer before and I don’t remember the beer being like this. Malty like a brown ale with a belgian touch this beer has potential.

Pours a hazy deep brownish red with a small soapy off white head that leaves a bit of sticky lacing. Aroma is a strange combination of rasins, dark chocolate, yeasts, nuts, toffee, roasted coffee beans. Flavor is rasins, burnt coffee, yeasts, wood. Finishes bitter from the chocolate and finishes with an almost powdery mouthfeel. Strange brew, didn’t do it for me but definitely unique.

This beer has great potential with its raisin, brown sugar, vanilla extract aroma, but it definitely evokes more of an overall doppelbock feel than a strong belgian due to the complete lack of carbonation. Had two glasses of this and the second one was poured aggresively only to yield a tiny 1/3 inch head. Flavor is light woodiness, a little fig but not much else. I’m very interested at how this could be with a tweak in the yeast levels by the brewery. Thank You Rock Art. 2009 22 oz.

Thanks to josarah for this beer. Pours a rich caramel color with very thin tan head. Aroamas of sweet malts, raisins, caramel and toffee. Flavors of roasted beans, chocolate, and hazelnuts. Nice bitter hop flavors as well. Medium bodied with good carbonation. Enjoyable beer after a long day. Thanks Joe!

Bottle. Sweet fruity malt aroma. Cloudy dark brown body, light tan head that leaves pretty lacing. Flavor is sweet but not cloying, chocolate, raisins, nuts. Sweet finish. Interesting and pleasing.

Pours a one finger white head that fades quickly to a ring, leaving traces of lace. Hazy amber color. Light-medium carbonation and medium bodied. Caramel nose. Flavor is caramel and molasses, smooth, balanced not bitter. $3.49 for a 22oz bottle from Cabot Quechee Store Quechee, VT.
