Jan 27, 2008 On tap at the 2008 Stone Winter Storm. Wait...no spices used here? Really? Hard to believe. Reminds me of a quadruple-style Belgian. Pours a hazy brown color with a bit of cascading beige head, eventually settling out to fine microbubble lace. Probably my favorite Epic so far. Sugary malty aroma with notes of figs, tea spices and chocolate. The flavor is elegant raisin, plum and port wine with toasty Belgian yeast . Finishes sweet and dry. Classic!

Jan 27, 2008 On tap at Stone’s 2008 Winter Storm. I was lucky enough to find a couple of bottles in the store a couple of months ago 2yrs after it was released, but this is first time I’m trying the beer. Amber color. Malty melanoiding aroma and sweetness. A hint of oxidation and sour. Very good.

Jan 19, 2008 September 2006- wonderful dark brown color with a little head on top. Dark plums, chocoalte and malt in the taste and nose- very intense. Alcoholic finish- but pleasant. Wonderful

Jan 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with thin off white head. This one has changed quite a bit since fresh, I’m down to 1 bottle now. Aroma is sweet and malty with chocolate and brown sugar. Flavor seems more mellow and full of dark fruits with cocoa and alcohol. Finish is warm and has a little black licorice taste that kind of sucks. Now to decide when to have this last bottle.......
