After the grape pale ale I wasn’t expecting much. Full bodied and reasonably complex. Dark fruit flavors and armoa. Sweet, a little too sweet. Almost no bitterness. milljam (584), Norman, Oklahoma, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 25, 2008 Somewhat cloudy medium brown pour with little head. Aroma of semi sweet dark fruit , over ripe bananas and a hint of spice. Tastes pretty much how it smells. Mouth feel and body was a tad watery. ABV could have been ramped up as well. Overall pretty good but not amazing. dwaggs2 (563), Lee’s Summit, Missouri, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 11, 2008 Sweet aroma of dark fruit, with a hint of roast underneath. Pours a nearly opaque dark brown, with a thin tan head. Sweet and spicy flavor, long finish of clove and banana. Touch of alcohol noticeable. Not bad for what is probably one of my least favorite styles. HighlanderOne (546), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 3, 2008 Poured from bottle 5/2008. Gettin good vibes from the aroma - roasted malt, vanilla, caramel. Muddy brown with thin tan head. Very smooth malt flavor, along with caramel, brown sugar, banana, vanilla. Alcohol in back that lingers nicely. Even better as it warms. Kind of a German/Belgian hybrid. Well done, Mr. Kibzey.
