Sep 21, 2009 Bottle at 5 O’Clocks in Stevensville, MI. Hurrah, they finally offer a few decent beers here. This ambiguously colored beer (reddish brown / copper / mahogany / red) seems to change with the lighting. It poured with a decent beige/tan head and a toffee and plum aroma. The flavor is rich and sweet, and features dark fruit, roasted malt, a few spices and a light alcohol trail. I certaintly enjoyed it.

Nov 22, 2009 22oz bomber, no date from markwise--thanks! Pours a clear copper auburn with a one finger beige head, fair retention. Old pine hops up front with some cereal grain and scorched toffee, alcohol behind with some fruity raisins and sweet cherries (no cherry tang noted). The flavor was more grainy with the toffee following. Didn’t seem as fruity, either. The alcohol still showed, though didn’t seem 10%--seems a little underattenuated and thick. Bitterness peaked at a 3, and added some light roast and dark chocolate notes. Thick full body with light to moderate carbonation. Maybe this beer should be consumed fresh, but I still don’t think I’d love it.
