Dec 24, 2008 Not quite what I hoping for. it looks and smells good, but the taste is too astringent at the end. I think the wrong kinda of hops were used. some spices and decent malts but the finish is not good.

Dec 23, 2008 A Christmas 2008 box of 12 was fun to open and try. This was the first to drink and it was good. The full bodied taste was a surprise. The blend of malts and specila hops was excellent. I look forward to the next one. The dark amber color with a frothy head was very inviting.

Dec 23, 2008 Pours dark brown with a copper tinge. A nice sized head. Aroma is caramel, chocolate and maybe a touch of spice. Flavor is much the same, but a bit thin. Not bad,

Dec 23, 2008 12 oz. Thanks for the trade Butters. Clear dark copper-brown with a lasting 1/8 inch of foam and some crunchy lace. Aroma is chocolate, caramel and light nutshell. Flavor is the same plus some hints of apple and peppery citrus. Medium-bodied, smoothly carbonated, lightly tingly and dry on the finish. Tasty lager.

Dec 19, 2008 a clear dark ruby rust under a small frothy beige head. hoppy with touches of chocolate and tootsie roll in aroma. the tootsie roll and chocolate show up the flavor as well with a bitter, hoppy, soapy, citrusy bite. i could do without the hops.

Dec 18, 2008 From bottle. Light toasted grain with some coffee and brown sugar. Very little hop presence. Dark brown amber clear with foamy off-white lacing, lasting head. Medium watery body with medium-heavy carbonation. Starts dry and roasted, with quite a hit of bitterness - almost like an Altbier at first. Caramel and brown sugar are muted, with light chicory-type character and thin watery bitterness at the finish. After is pretty bitter, with some nutty character.
