WeeHeavySD (1564), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Apr 17, 2008 Bottle from BBB63. Pours dark dark brown copper with a 2 finger tan head. Nose is sweet and full of caramel. Taste is sweet, caramely and a little spiced with i’ll agree some clove. This is an interesting beer. Thanks Mike.
Walt (2257), Chicago, Illinois, USA May 4, 2008 Pour is hazed brown with a thin off white head...smell is spicy with hints of banana and clove...thin boddy...taste is a little banana and buttery... dm9831 (530), Monee, Illinois, USA Apr 29, 2008 pre dark lord party. pours cloudy brown. just a couple bubbles on top. sniffs slightly sour, but mostly air. flavor is some kind of fruitiness, other than that, i dunno. medium bodied. a bit too ephemeral for someone as befuddled as me.
Thanks to <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=7443>BBB63 for this sample.

Pours kind of a murky caramel body with a modest off-white head. Good lacing. The aroma is softly sweet with toffee & caramel, some orchard fruit, perhaps some clove, and a bit of brown sugar with a light herbal/grassy hoppiness balancing it out. Some wheat flavor shows up in the flavor, smoothly blended with the elements reflected in the nose. Soft and refreshing drink.
