Dec 3, 2008 Thanks to Travis from Dunedin Brewing. Wow. This beer pours a deep reddish-brown with an aroma of caramel, sugar, molasses, and butter cookies. The flavor is equally flavored and sugary with a hint of bitter at finish. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Travis from Dunedin Brewing. Pours a deep amber brown with a small light tan head. Aroma of caramel, spicy Belgian yeast, bubblegum, and a touch of cardboard oxidation. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a mild to moderate amount of bitterness and well hidden alcohol. Very good.

Nov 27, 2008 22 oz bottle. Dark brown with a pocked tan head. Nose is brown sugar, raisin, banana and clove. Medium body with a sharp tang. Taste doesn’t quite deliver on the nose. Cane sugar, hints of molasses, with emerging sour dark fruits. Chalky, bitter finish.

Nov 21, 2008 courtesy of Travis, you da’ man.
Pours amber with beige head.
Aroma is malty and grainy.
Taste has plenty of nice chocolate malts and some hints of dark fruits.
It aged quite well, loaded with nice flavors and a light hoppy finish.

Nov 16, 2008 Huge thanks to Travis (of Dunedin Brewery) for bringing along a vertical of Stone’s Vertical Epic to the epic Florida kick off party at the Oldsmar Tap House. Pours murky fudgy brown with tiny off white head. The inviting aroma has notes of caramel, German dark bread, toffee, biscuit and faint rich nearly over ripe dark fruitiness. The taste was very nice but lacked the depth I was expecting. It had the smoothed with age notes noted in the nose such as caramel, biscuit malts, a bit of dark fruitiness and faint oxidation. Very nice treat.

Sep 28, 2008 Bottle at the Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens on 08/03/2008 on day three of RBSG 2008. Dark amber body with a small tan head. Very spicy caramel aroma. Caramel and spice flavor. Medium full body with moderate carbonation.

Sep 14, 2008 Pours brown with a red tint. Smells of caramel, dark fruit, lots of clove. Tastes of sweet caramel and spicy, but the cardboard is creeping in. I have some doubts as to how much longer this beer should be cellared by anyone as it’s showing signs of oxidation.
