Sweet malty aroma with hoppy notes. Some fresh fruit and some spice as well. Flavour is sweet malty and barley wine like. A good hoppy touch matches the taste of ripe fruit very well. Medium mouthfeel. Good balanced beer. shotgunn (33), Boise, Idaho, USA

To the nose it was sweet with floral notes. When it first it the tongue it was sweet almost toffee. The finish was a tart grapefruit that sticks around for a while.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 5, 2009 Red 750mL bottle. Poured near-clear ambery-orange with a short cap of off-white head. The aroma picked up honey, caramel, and darker fruity maltage accented by earthy and medicinal character.. the honey and fruity I got outta here made it almost malt likka-ey. The flavor had a somewhat cloying combination of honey, fruity notes, and alcohol that made it a little hard to drink.. spicy, earthy and medicinal notes showed again around the tongue.. bitterness really increased as it warmed up. Medium-plus bodied and bitter on the palate with a tacky texture at times.. spicy at the end, and it warmed up the belly. I don’t know what it was, but this didn’t strike a great chord with me.
