Aug 3, 2009 On tap @ Bottleworks. Boozy mother of a quad. Really tasty, but it isn’t hiding much. Pours a dark brown with a big, dense head. Dark fruits, a bit of cranberry even, with brown sugar on the nose. Flavor has a good amount of booze, with a cola / fruity cover. Some spices, too, and as the aftertaste lingers, you get a nice oaky note showing through. Nice and tasty.

Jul 31, 2009 Not as good as Russian River’s many great beers. Grape notes rise most significantly for me but some of the diversity of flavors fades beneath the alcohol. Growler shared at RBSG 2009 grand tasting.

Jul 5, 2009 A very fresh hand-bottle thanks to footbalm, as always you are the man Eric! Pours a very dark brown/mahogany color with a medium white head. The aroma is somewhat sour; lots of funk, raisins and dark fruits, tangy Belgian yeast and malts. The flavor is very nice; smooth and somehow easygoing yet strong and flavorful, sweet malts, brown sugar, funky Brett, slightly sour and sweet. Very nice.
